Shopify keeps your inventory. Scanpacker runs the warehouse floor.

Receive

Receive purchase orders and transfers by scan.

Receiving works on Shopify's own purchase orders and transfers, and your counts update Shopify inventory as soon as you receive. Each receipt lists what arrived in storage location order for putaway, with unlocated products first.

  • Receive part of a shipment and come back to the rest later.
  • Record rejected units without adding them to your stock.
  • Build transfers between your locations by scan, and ship them in Shopify.

Pick

Batch picking, from a pick list or into cart slots.

Batches are built by hand or from the oldest orders in the queue, and pick in your warehouse's walking order. Guided picking sends the picker to one storage location at a time and confirms each item and its cart slot by scan.

  • Batches of up to 100 orders, with a preview of which orders a batch will contain.
  • A scannable pick list, or guided picking one item at a time.
  • Cart types with named slots, so sorting happens during the pick.
  • Products without a storage location still work, and you can set one during the pick.

Check

Every unit checked by barcode at the packing bench.

Packers scan each unit as it goes in the parcel, with a USB or Bluetooth scanner or the phone's camera. A wrong product or an overscan stops them with an alert, or plays a warning sound if you'd rather keep moving.

  • Each item shows its storage location, SKU, barcode and stock level.
  • Packer notes and Shopify notes appear on the order, where staff see them.
  • The Scan Error Report shows each person's wrong scans and error rate over time.

Ship

Buy the label where you packed the order.

Scanpacker quotes your carriers, buys the label, prints it at the packer's station and creates the Shopify fulfillment with tracking. Customs forms print with the label.

  • Ten shipping platforms, including Shopify Shipping, EasyPost, Shippo, ShipStation and Sendcloud.
  • Parcel templates for the sizes you use, and weights read from a USB or serial scale.
  • Fraud risk and address warnings appear before you ship.

Print

Send each document to the right printer automatically.

Scanpacker Printer Connect runs on a Mac, Windows or Linux computer next to your printers, and prints whatever the app sends it: shipping labels, packing slips, pick lists, invoices and barcode labels. Autoprint rules decide what prints and when.

  • Zebra and other ZPL label printers, and any printer your computer can see.
  • Templates in Liquid, as HTML or ZPL, printed one- or two-sided.
  • Stations give each packing bench its own printers, whoever is signed in.
  • Processing rules tag orders or print documents as orders move through checking.

Report

See how the warehouse is doing, by the person, the hour and the order.

Every order's journey is recorded from the moment it's started to the moment it ships, with nothing to set up. Each report compares the period with the one before and downloads as an Excel file.

  • Operations, team productivity, fulfillment speed, exceptions, short picks, products, shipping and receiving reports.
  • A live board for a screen on the warehouse floor, which refreshes every minute.
  • A weekly digest by email, and alerts when the queue or the scan error rate crosses a threshold.
  • An export API that sends order journeys and batches to your own spreadsheets or BI tools.
