Description

Select label configurations for each area

•If you use more than one type of barcode label printer, you can create multiple label layouts/configurations, one for each printer type.

•These settings determine the label layout/configuration that will be used for each area of the system.

•If you leave a field blank, you will be prompted to select a layout/configuration at the time of printing.

Why would I use more than one type of printer/label?

Generally, there are two types/categories of barcode printers and labels. Either you can use standard label sheets (typically 8.5” X 11” with 30 or so labels per page) and use a standard laser printer or you can use a dedicated barcode label printer with continuous feed labels (i.e. in a roll). If you will be printing a large quantity of barcode labels, a dedicated barcode label printer is recommended.

So you might use multiple layouts if, for example, you have a dedicated barcode printer at your receiving dock due to the high volume of labels being printed but you may use a standard printer with single sheet labels for assets due to the lower volume.

Again, this is just an example. There may be other factors that affect your choice of printer and labels.

Receipts Print Mode

•This affects how barcode labels are printed during the receiving process.

•If you select EACH RECEIPT, you will be prompted to print new barcode labels as you exit the receiving screen to select the next PO.

•If you select BATCH, new labels for each receipt will be added to the Pending Barcode Label Batch and you must click the [PRINT BARCODE LABELS] when you are ready.

Asset Label Print Mode

•Check this box to print labels when receiving assets.

•Separately, you can indicate whether or not you want to print labels during the receiving process for each item in the Item Master File.

Include location/bin on item labels?

•Check this box to include the inventory location and bin numbers on each label.
