This article will explain how to print existing consignment documents. It will explain two ways to print:
Printing manually using the GUI
You can easily print consignment documents and labels for existing consignments.
- Go to Shipments > Find & Print.
- Search and find consignments by entering search criteria for Consignment number or Order number / Shippers Reference. Select a user, enter your search criteria and click Search.
- Some basic information about the found consignment can be seen.
- To print all documents for this consignment (all labels and waybills), click Print all documents.
- To re-print select labels only, select which goods rows you want printed, and click Print selected labels.
To learn more about setting up users, see Setting up users in ApportConnect.
Printing automatically using a comma separated file
You can also print documents for existing consignments automatically by placing text files containing comma separated consignment numbers in the “p_print” directory, located in the watching path you specified when setting up your user. nShift ApportConnect will automatically recognize your consignments, fetch their documents, and print them for you.
