Printcore WALKTHROUGH

Shipping (per job)

← All walkthroughs
Step 1 of 5Shipping (per job)

Set up the package on the job

Open any job ticket and the Shipping section is right inside it. Confirm the line items going in this package, the ship-to address, and the package dimensions and weight.

Set up the package on the job

What to do

On the job, check the line items going into this package, verify the Ship To address, then enter Length, Width, Height, and Weight. Click Get Shipping Rates.

Why it matters

All the data you need to ship is already on the ticket — customer, contents, address. You're confirming, not re-entering.
Step 2 of 5Shipping (per job)

Pick a rate and purchase the label

Live rates from your enabled carriers appear instantly. Pick the service that fits — fastest, cheapest, or somewhere in between — and buy the label in one click.

Pick a rate and purchase the label

What to do

In Select Shipping Method, pick a rate (UPS Ground, USPS Ground Advantage, etc.). Click the green Purchase Label button. The label is generated and attached to the job.

Why it matters

No alt-tabbing to a carrier's website. Live multi-carrier rates means you always pick the best option for the customer's deadline and budget.
Step 3 of 5Shipping (per job)

Print the packing slip

Each package has its own printable packing slip with ship-from / ship-to addresses, order info, line items, and a packing checklist.

Print the packing slip

What to do

Click Packing Slip on the package. The slip opens in a new tab — print it and tuck it into the box.

Why it matters

The checklist at the bottom (items wrapped, label attached, sealed) prevents the small mistakes that turn into customer service calls later.
Step 4 of 5Shipping (per job)

Notify the customer & track

Once shipped, the package moves to the Shipped tab on the job. Tracking number, cost, and ship-to are all visible. One click emails tracking to the customer.

Notify the customer & track

What to do

On the Shipped tab, click the green Email Tracking to Customer button. The customer gets the tracking link automatically.

Why it matters

"Where's my order?" calls drop sharply once customers see proactive tracking. The job ticket holds the full shipping history for any future questions.
