Freight Labels
This page describes the Freight Labels form in the Stock module.
---
The Freight Labels form allows you to print labels from Deliveries. A single label will be printed on each page.
You can also print labels from an individual Delivery using the following methods:
- If you have selected one of the Delivery Freight Label options on the 'Labels' card in the Auto Actions setting in the System module, labels will be printed automatically from Deliveries when you save them after marking them as OK. Please refer to the description that follows the illustration of the 'Specify Freight Labels' window below for details about each option.

- You can also open a Delivery in a record window and select 'Print Freight Labels' from the Operations menu (Windows/macOS) or Tools menu (iOS/Android). If you have selected one of the Delivery Freight Label options in the Auto Actions setting as mentioned in point 1, the number of labels printed by this function will be set by that option. If you have not specified in the Auto Actions setting that Freight Labels will be printed automatically, labels will be printed as though you had selected the One per Package option.

- Delivery
- Range Reporting
Numeric
- Enter a Delivery Number to print labels for a particular Delivery, or a range of Delivery Numbers separated by a colon (:). You must enter a Delivery Number or range of Delivery Numbers: if you leave this field empty, no labels will be printed.
- Labels will not be printed for any Deliveries in the range that have a Delivery Mode in which you have selected the Do Not Print Freight Labels option.
- Language
- Paste Special
Languages setting, System module
- If you need to print labels from Deliveries with a particular Language (on the 'Packaging' card), specify that Language here.
- Item Group
- Paste Special
Item Group register, Sales Ledger
- If you only need to print labels for Items that belong to a particular Item Group, specify that Item Group here.
- Specifying an Item Group will have no effect if you use the One per Package option below.
- Function
- Select one of these options to specify how many labels should be printed for each Delivery.
- One per Package
- One label will be printed for each Package. The number of Packages will be taken from the Packages field on the 'Packaging' card in each Delivery. If the Packages field is empty in a Delivery, one label will be printed for that Delivery.
- One per Delivery Row
- One label will be printed for each row in a Delivery.
- If you have specified an Item Group in the field above, labels will only be printed for rows with Items belonging to that Item Group.
- Labels will not be printed for any rows with Items belonging to an Item Group in which you have selected the Do Not Print Freight Labels option. This may be useful for Service Items such as labour.
- One per Delivered Unit
- One label will be printed for each unit in a Delivery. For example, if the Del. Qty in a row is 3, three labels will be printed for that row.
- If you have specified an Item Group in the field above, labels will only be printed for rows with Items belonging to that Item Group.
- Labels will not be printed for any rows with Items belonging to an Item Group in which you have selected the Do Not Print Freight Labels option. Labels will also not be printed for any rows that do not have Item Numbers.
Usually when designing Form Templates that will be used to print labels, you should use fields with Field Arguments and no Fieldnames to have static text printed on the labels (i.e. text that identifies the information on the labels, such as "Item Name"). As each Freight Label will be printed on a separate page, you don't need to use this method in the Form Template that will be used by the Freight Labels form. Instead you can use text objects as you would in Form Templates that will not be used to print labels.
You can use the fields listed below when you design the Form Template to be used by the Freight Labels form.
Header FieldsThe following fields print information from the header of the Delivery:
| Field in Form Template | Prints (from Delivery) | | | | Address | Customer Name and Delivery Address. This will be printed on separate lines, so you should specify a Line Height for this field | | Calculated Volume | Sum of the values in the "Volume, row" row field. This field will only be printed if you select the One per Package option in the specification window | | Calculated Weight | Sum of the values in the "Weight" row field. This field will only be printed if you select the One per Package option in the specification window | | City | Prints the alpha characters in the third line of the Delivery Address (i.e. any initial numeric characters will not be printed). If the third line of the Delivery Address is empty, the second line or, if that is also empty, the first line will be printed.
