Pick Lists are documents that list what items need to be picked from your warehouse and in what quantity.

When printing a pick list for an order or multiple orders, ShipStation will include all items on the selected order(s) on the Pick List, regardless of whether multiple shipments exist on the orders.
-
When printing a pick list for a shipment or multiple shipments, ShipStation will include only the items on the selected shipments. If additional shipments exist on an order, but are not selected when you print the pick list, those items will not be included on the pick list.
-
For product image thumbnails to appear on pick lists when that document option is enabled, the image URL for the product must either be present in the Product Record or have been included in the order data sent from the selling channel.

Enabling product images for pick lists may cause ShipStation to take longer creating the pick list when a large number of orders or shipments is selected.
