Background

ShipWorks Scan-to-Ship gives you the ability to streamline your shipping process by searching for orders, weighing packages, applying shipping profiles, processing labels and more with a barcode scan. As of ShipWorks version 7.9, you now also have the ability to reprint a shipping label for orders that have already been processed.

This article will guide you through how to reprint a shipping label with a barcode scan and how to configure ShipWorks to reprint a shipping label for processed shipments as the default action.

First Things First

The Process

Reprinting a Label with a Barcode Scan

When you scan a barcode to load an order that has already had a shipping label created you will be prompted by ShipWorks. You will be asked what action you would like to take for the order. You have the option to:

  • Reprint Existing Label

  • Create New Label

  • Cancel

order previously processed

Click on the Reprint Existing Label button to have ShipWorks reprint the label for you.

Note

If the order has multiple processed shipments, the label will be printed for the most recently processed shipment.

Configure 'Reprint Existing Label' as the Default Action

If you would like to configure ShipWorks so that you do not have to click Reprint Existing Label, you can set this as the default action when scanning an order that has already had a label processed. Here's how:

1. Click on the Manage tab, click the Settings button and then select Scan-to-Ship.

2. Click the drop-down menu for Default behavior when scanning a previously processed order: and select Print Existing Label.

click manage > settings > scan-to-ship > print existing label

3. Click the OK button to save your selection.

From now on, when you scan an order, ShipWorks will automatically reprint the shipping label for orders that have already been processed.
