Scan to verify and print

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum but I managed to scan through some related posts but I couldn't find the answer or advice. Can the "Scan to verify and print" be somehow automated to print the label right after all items are verified? I'm trying to minimize the amount of manual steps for my fulfillment crew. Additionally, can I create a barcode that takes me from the Shipstation main window to the "Scan to Verify and Print" window? I see a bunch of barcodes created to shortcut through Shipstation without using a mouse but I can't find one to take me to "Scan to verify and print" that I would like to have printed on all shipping desks and access this menu option without using any computer hardware just a barcode scanner. Both are simple improvements that can speed up any fulfillment process.

That would be great for us as well; we have implemented a Touch screen, so the process is a "Little" let mouse driven.:)

We 2 barcodes at the top of our packing slips to make our flow completely hands off.
The first barcode is the order, packers scan it and it opens the order, they then scan all the items and when verified, they scan the second barcode. The second barcode is the letter "p" which is the keyboard shortcut key to print. Once they scan the second barcode, the label prints and the workflow moves on to a blank window ready to scan the next order. I've attached a screenshot of the top of our packing slip for reference. All of this is done on a ipad and bluetooth scanner. I hope this helps.

Thanks Lee-MontiiCo.  Just the letter "P" no CRLF and what Barcode type 128, EAN ?

 

We just use the built in shipstation barcode class in the html editor

Hello Ahead.
There is a generic barcode that you can scan to print your shipping label after you scan to verify. We printed and taped it to the shipping desks and it works great as the need for the keyboard is close to zero now. When you go to Scan-Verify&Print on the right-hand side you will see "Print Barcode Sheet"
I cropped it and made it smaller and it works great!
