Print & Save Your Templates

Manually print or save invoices, packing slips, labels, and other templates

Updated October 26, 20261 min readInvoices, packing slips, emails and more

Let's look at how to print and save templates. This is useful when you need to reprint a packing slip, invoice, label, or other template, or when you wish to save a template to your computer or mobile device.

Templates are used to print or save:

  • Packing Slips
  • Invoices, including Commercial Invoices for international shipments
  • Shipping Labels and Return Labels you've created
  • Reports: Order Summary, Pick List, Returns Report, Shipping Cost Summary and Shipping Log
  • Custom templates (available on the Expand, Thrive, and Soar plans)

Before We Begin

This article assumes that you have imported at least one order into Postsale, have connected at least one shipping carrier account, and have created at least one shipping label.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

There was a misprint when creating shipping labels. We print an invoice along with the shipping label and the invoice got mangled in the printer. We need to reprint the invoice.

When printing in Postsale, you will first select the order(s) you wish to print. This tells Postsale which orders to print for. For example, you could select 3 orders in the Orders Grid. When you print the template, Postsale will print 3 individual copies, one for each selected order.

  1. Search for and select the orders in the Orders Grid.

    The order's row checkbox is selected in the Orders Grid.
  2. Click Print on the toolbar.

    Print is highlighted on the toolbar.
  3. In the menu, open the template's folder (for example, Invoices or Labels) and select the template you wish to print. In this example, the Invoice template is selected so that an invoice prints for the selected order.

    Invoice is highlighted in the Print menu.

    Your web browser's print dialog window will open.

  4. Use the print dialog to select the correct printer, configure additional printing options and print the template.

    The invoice will print to the printer you selected.

Save a Template

Postsale lets you save a template as a PDF file. For example, you could save an invoice as a PDF and attach it to an email.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

We created a shipping label and need to email it to a fulfillment partner. We would like to save the label to a PDF file so that it is easily attached to an email.

As with printing a template, you will first select the order(s). This tells Postsale what order information to include in the saved template.

  1. Search for and select the orders in the Orders Grid.

    The order's row checkbox is selected in the Orders Grid.
  2. Click Save on the toolbar.

    Save is highlighted on the toolbar.
  3. In the menu, open the template's folder (for example, Invoices or Labels) and select the template you wish to save. In this example, we selected the Label 4 x 6 (tall) template to save the shipping label to a PDF file.

    Label 4 x 6 (tall) is highlighted in the Save menu.

    The PDF will be generated and downloaded to your computer or mobile device.
