Packing Slip Generator

About the Packing Slip Generator

Packing Slip Generator creates the document that goes inside a parcel to show what was shipped. It lists the slip number, order reference and date, the shipper, the recipient and shipping address, the shipment date, carrier, tracking number, number of packages and any shipping instructions.

Each row has a SKU, product description, ordered quantity, shipped quantity and optional backordered quantity. The tool checks that the quantities add up and shows shipment totals. Prices are deliberately left off the packing slip.

How to use

2. Add the shipper and recipient, and the shipping address if it differs from the recipient’s address.
3. Enter carrier, tracking number, package count and instructions.
4. Add a row per product with SKU, description, ordered and shipped quantities, and optionally the backordered quantity.
5. Fix any quantity warnings, then Print or Download PDF.
