When a wholesale order reaches the Packed status you can print the Packing Slips and Generate BOLs. These documents are often required by the recipient of the wholesale order and help them identify and receive the wholesale order that was processed by your warehouse team.
Printing Packing Slips
When you select the Print packing list button, a PDF is generated with the packing layout details which is automatically attached to the corresponding order.
