Sample Labels

This page shows examples of how sample labels are set up.

This is not meant to explain how to use TEKLYNX CODESOFT to add data to a label.

Sales shipping label

This label is for printing a shipping label from the header of the Sales Order page. The label will contain the ship-to address, ship-from address, shipping agent, date shipped, order number and number of items in the shipment.

Label setup

The following image is how the shipping label is set up in Business Central.

File Name: This is the label file that will contain the fields from the selected tables.
Sales Header (36): This is the label action, which means the Print to SENTINEL action on the Sales Order page will print the label. The label action must always be the first table listed.

This table is the parent to the Location (14) and Sales Line (37) tables.

This table is set as the Record to Print, which means when the label is printed, a label will be printed per sales order.

This table is filtered to only print labels for sales documents with a document type of Order.

Ship-to fields from this table were added to the Label Table Fields page. Those fields will be added to label.
Location (14): Fields were added to the Label Table Fields page. Those fields will be added to label from CODESOFT.

This table has table relations with the Sales Header (36) table.
Sales Line (37): The Quantity field from this table was added to the Label Table Fields page. The field will be added to a formula in TEKLYNX CODESOFT to calculate the total number of items being shipped.

This table has table relations with the Sales Header (36) table.

CODESOFT label layout

The following is an example of a label set up in TEKLYNX CODESOFT.

The field label names were copied from Business Central and pasted into the label.

Two sections have additional logic:

SalesHeader_No: This field label name was added as a barcode.
Number of Items: This field has a formula, which adds the number of items on each sales line to get a total number of items on the order.
