A Scan to View barcode is the default barcode that appears as the last element of ShipStation's default packing slips. This barcode allows you to use a barcode scanner in any tab of the ShipStation interface to open the details of that order.
Scan to View speeds things up if you scan packing slip barcodes as part of your order fulfillment or returns management workflow.
The barcode works with both a barcode scanner and ShipStation Mobile.
Turn the Scan to View barcode on or off for your default packing slips by following the steps below.
-
Select Printing and then Printing Setup from the left-hand sidebar.
Find the row for Packing Slips and click Document Options.
-
Ensure you've checked the appropriate box to enable Scan to View (or removed the checkmark) and click Save Changes.
Note
If you have a Silver plan or higher, you can customize your Packing Slips to use other types of barcodes.
