Has anyone created a portal to print labels? Something similar to this page. Initially they wanted me to put together a workflow or script that would set field values in some of those fields and avoid repeats, but obviously that is not possible on this page. Now they have asked to create something similar that prints out a general label to go on Pallets with address information from the order. Not sure where to start at the moment.

We have created a suitelet to print out custom labels which contains the QR code as well as the PO number and the item name. Suitelet gets called through a button displayed on all approved sales order until they are full filled. I believe you can achieve the same thing. Just instead of a button you will have the item name, the quantity and the SO details on the suitelet sublist. And a checkbox field with which you can mark the rows you want to print and execute the same based on a button click in the suitelet.

In that solution - do you have the button on the Sales order or is it a list view with checkboxes to print them all?

For us, It's a button on the SO which prints it for all the items on that SO. But you could easily create the same for all the SOs in your system. Logic is the same. It's just the requirement is slightly different. You want all he SOs in 1 view along with their details and select what you want to print. You can filter your view based on status, dates, maybe subsidiary, etc to make it more user friendly. 1 suitelet for view, and 1 suitelet for printing the labels, and 1 client script to perform all the necessary actions like filter calling the other suitelet and stuff.

For what it's worth you can probably do the view / print in a single SuiteLet.

@NElliott That's what I'm thinking
