Packing slips and pick lists
Documents for the person actually putting things in boxes.
Fulfilment is a physical job, and the people doing it need paper or a screen that matches what is on the shelf — not the order screen, which is organised for administration.
How it works
- A packing slip per order, for the box.
- A batch pick list across many orders, which is a different document: it is organised by product rather than by order, so one trip collects everything.
- Both are reachable over the API, so they can be driven from a scanner or a script.
Why batch picking is the one that saves time
Picking order by order walks the same aisle repeatedly. Twenty orders containing the same product means twenty visits to that shelf, or one. On any real volume the difference is the whole afternoon.
What it does not do
There are no pick paths, no zone routing and no scanner-guided put-away. This is documents for a small-to-medium operation, not a warehouse management system. If you are shipping hundreds a day, run dedicated WMS software alongside — and plan that now rather than at peak.
