Feature Request: Show if Packing Slips have been printed on Awaiting Shipments Order Page

[neattools]

It would be nice if there was a column to show if packing slips have been printed for open orders. That way when new orders come in, you know which ones need packing slips printed. It would help in my workflow at least. 

I know you can see if a packing slip has been printed on the shipments page, but that's only for orders that have already been shipped, as I would want it on the open orders page.

I am amazed that Shipstation hasn't implemented this. Especially, knowing that the "Packing Slip Printed" column already exist in the Shipment view (which is useless). It should be in the Orders tab view.

Until Shipstation decides to implement this feature, here's a workaround that has definitely helped us alleviate  the headaches surrounding the printing of duplicate packing slips.

WORKAROUND: 

1) Create a tag called "Packing Slip Printed" and choose a green color.
2) When a packing slip is printed, tag the order with this tag.

This way, at a glance, all users will know that orders with a green tag means the packing slip has been printed.

Not ideal because there is manual user intervention, but it does the job. At least until Shipstation does their job.

Hope this helps.

We could also really use this feature. Seems like a no-brainer and prevents us from having to use other manual ways of tracking this.

Is there any update on adding this feature this would save so much time.

Hello, @Cruxmotorsports!

Thank you for your patience while we reviewed your feature request—I’m thrilled to share some great news! Users can now add a 'Packing Slip Printed' column in the orders grid and even filter by printed or not printed. It works like it does on the Shipments tab, giving you more control and visibility!

Happy Shipping!

@CaraAdmin It would be great if you could update your support team about this as I spent about an hour discussing this with them last week and they said it was not possible!!!!! You may want to also check that the support pages reflect this option too (not sure it does or not).

Hello @MrFrisbee!

Thank you for posting this to the community and bringing this to my attention! We truly appreciate your feedback and will look into this further.

To determine if a packing slip has been printed, add the Packing Slip Printed status to your columns. Simply navigate to Other on the orders grid, and a drop-down will appear; select Packing Slip, and choose the status you’d like to display. This will help you easily track whether a packing slip has been printed. 

I hope you find this helpful! Have a wonderful rest of your day!
