Whats is a Packing Slip?

Also known as delivery lists or bills of parcel, packing slips are documents that accompany goods when they are delivered. In most cases, a packing slip is placed inside the pouch, box, or other container that is used for the shipment. When multiple containers are included in the single shipment, the seller will often seal the slip in a clear plastic pouch and affix it to the exterior of one of the boxes.

There are several other names that are used to identify the packing slip. In some countries, the document is referred to as a delivery docket or an unpacking note. Identifying the slip as a customer receipt is also fairly common. The exact term used will sometimes vary, based on the type of goods that are shipped as well as the cultural preference of the area where the shipper resides.

A packing slip is designed to aid recipients of the shipment in confirming that all items that were supposed to be included in the shipment have actually arrived. While slip designs vary somewhat, most will include a description of each item included in the shipment, as well as the quantity of each item shipped. If the shipment does not completely fill the customer’s order, it will often include data regarding the status of those other items. For example, a packing slip for a delivery of books from a book club would identify the name and quantity of each book included in the shipment, while also noting any books related to the customer order that were not shipped, giving those items a status of “back ordered.” This allows the recipient to know that the shipment is only a partial fulfillment of the order, and another shipment can be expected at a later date.

In some cases, the packing slip will also include information regarding the charges associated with each item included in the shipment. Data like the unit price of each item, the extended price for each type of item if multiple units were shipped, any shipping and handling charges assessed, and any taxes applied are often found on this type of detailed packing slip. The detail is helpful, since it allows the recipient to check those figures against any price quotes extended by the seller prior to the placement of the order.

While a packing slip can provide a great deal of detail, it normally does not serve as a bill of lading or an invoice. Those documents may also accompany the shipment, or be received electronically or by post at a later date. In business settings, employees charged with overseeing shipping and receiving functions will often use the packing slip to check off the items received, then forward the slip to the accounts payable department. The detail contained on the slip is compared to the detail on the invoice before payment for the order is approved. Assuming the comparison does not yield any discrepancies, the invoice is approved and payment is remitted to the seller.

Hi,

 

maybe I haven't understood something but if you change order status to "preparation in progress" you can easily create delivery slip. Did you try this?

[delroyp]

that's it.... thanks ... how do i change the name from "DELIVERY SLIP" to "PACKING SLIP"?

Do you want to change name of tab in admin panel or header of PDF document? If tab go to BO>employees>tabs, if part of PDF BO>tools>translations and select PDF.

Hi, I had this working in previous versions and have 1.5.3 now... tried your trick but unfortunately doesn't work. Can someone explain why a packing slip only can be created after it has been delivered? I use packing slip to attach to the package when shipping it. What is the use of a packing slip after delivery? More important... anyone have a good working solution for version 1.5.3.?

I have the same bug. I've just upgraded to 1.5.4.1 (still working on a a non live version on my srver until all the bigs have been addressed).

 

This is a major bug and needs to be addressed, along with the wording 'Items to be shipped' - if they are in the package, they are being shipped!

There is obviously no one watching this thread.

Just wanted to let everyone know that in 1.6 these instructions are adjusted to:

To change the tab name go to BO>administration>menus, if part of PDF you want to change go to BO>localization>translations and select PDF and your language to modify.
