Use the I/C Item Labels screen to print labels, such as price tags or bar codes, that you can attach to items when you receive them from suppliers, and to items already in your inventory.
You can print labels for items at any time, for example, to replace damaged labels or to update item descriptions and pricing information.
Note: To print labels for the bins or shelves where you store items at your inventory locations, use the I/C Bin/Shelf Labels screen instead.
Before you start
- If you want to print labels when you receive items, choose the Require Labels
option on the I/C Receipts screen, and make sure that your receipt detail lines include
the number of labels that you need.
Inventory Control automatically generates item labels when you post the receipts and then run Day End Processing.
- Find out which report
file has the label format that you want to use.
For example, there may be different label formats for bar codes and price tags.
To print item labels:
-
Inventory Control > I/C Stock Control Reports > Item Labels.
- In the I/C Item Labels screen, select one of the following options:
- Received. Creates a label for each item received. The number of labels to print for each item was specified when the receipts were posted.
- On File. Creates a label for each item on file, even those items that are not in stock.
- In Stock. Creates a label for each item stock item.
- Non-stock. Creates a label for each non-stock item.
- Select the report file (which has a RPT file extension) of the label format to use.
- Select the price list to use for the pricing information on the labels.
- If you use multicurrency accounting, select the currency of the price list to use.
- If you are printing labels for received items, you can select a range of receipts. You can also select the Reprint Previously Printed Items option.
- If you are printing labels for items on file or in stock:
- Select the inventory location.
- For Sort By, select the sort order for the labels, which can be by item number, category, item segment, or an optional field value.

- If you are printing labels for non-stock items, select the sort order for the labels, which can be by item number, category, item segment, or an optional field value. If you want to limit the report to a range of values for the sort field, enter the range for From and To.
- Click Print.
The report appears in a new window. You can print the report or export it to a file.
