Overview

The Order Manager provides a batch printing feature for users that prefer to manage order-related printing, such as invoices, packing slips, credit slips, etc.,  as a group, rather than on an order by order basis. This feature is accessed by the Batch Printing link in the Reports section of the Main Menu. When there are documents to print, the lettering of the link is in red, as shown in Figure 1.

Some printed paperwork can be added to the batch print queue automatically as orders are approved upon import, from the Multi-Order Processor, or they can be added manually at the Pack & Ship, QuickShip or Orders screens.

The number of copies, for each type of document that will be printed, is controlled by the settings on Page 2 of the Printing section of the Setup Wizard.

Shipping labels are not affected by these settings, as they are actually printed by the integrated shipping software of the carrier. FedEx or UPS labels can be printed from this screen, however. To batch print USPS shipping labels from Endicia's DAZzle, it is necessary to use the DAZzle Batch feature, instead.

Pick Lists are not managed at this screen. They may be printed automatically as orders are imported (PrintPickLists system parameter).

Click the Show link next to "In This Topic" at the top of this page to see a series of links in outline form, which can be used to quickly jump to that section of the topic.

In addition, major topics may provide a brief synopsis of a field's purpose or direct the reader to the appropriate section of the topic by scrolling over the image. To return to the previous location within the same page, right-click the mouse and select [Back].

If clicking a field directs the reader to a different Knowledge Base topic, it will open in a new tab or window, leaving the currently viewed topic open. The browser's settings determine whether a new tab or window is opened.
