1. Overview
Barcode Label for Connect is designed to print labels for products directly.
myFulfillment supports 3 format for barcode labels:
- Single label in PDF format
- Single label in ZPL format
- A4 page with several labels
2. How does it work
There are several ways to print barcode label (from purchase order, from free reception etc...) but the easiest way is to do it from the product view
- Navigate through products menu
- Choose a product from the product grid
- At the right bottom you will find a button for BARCODE LABEL.
- Click on the Barcode label, a popup asks for the number of label to print, confirm.
- The Barcode label will be downloaded in the browser (depending of the format you configured).
You can edit the barcode label by going on Menu > Settings > Products > Barcode Label
Settings explanations:
- Label format: you choose between PDF, ZPL or PDF_A4
- Label height: height of the label, in centimeters
- Label width: width of the label, in centimeters
- Layout (see below)
- PDF A4 XXXX : this settings are only used for PDF A4 format (see below)
- Warehouse for location: if you display the location on the barcode label, configure here the warehouse to use
- Default tax rate: if you display the price on the barcode label, configure here the tax rate to use to calculate the final price including tax
4. Understanding label layout
In the layout table, you can configure what is displayed on the label.
For each element you can configure:
- Display: select if you want to display the element on the label
- Position: this is the position of the element on the label, using X and Y values from the top left corner. For example, if you configure "1,2" it means that the element will be displayed at 1cm from the top border and 2 cm from the left border
- Size:
- By default this is the text size
- For barcode, it must contain the width and the height (in centimeters of the barcode)
Full example:
If you use this format, the label layout will be repeated on the page.
First you must configure how many columns and rows are on your page:
So fill the fields accordingly:
Next you can finetune the A4 layout with the following settings:
- PDF A4 - Horizontal margin : this is the margin at the left and at the right before the labels
- PDF A4 - Vertical margin : this is the margin at the top and at the right before the labels
- PDF A4 - Margin between labels
If you select ZPL format, a default layout will be applied based on the label configuration table.
However you can customize the layout inserting custom ZPL code:
