Set Up Labels to Print
JustFood provides the capability for you to specify which labels are printed for specific item, vendor, and location combinations. When a label is printed, JustFood looks at the values on the Label Configuration page to see which version of a report to print for the item, vendor, and location combination. If no combination exists, an error is displayed.
You can set up the label configuration for item labels, container labels, shipping container labels, and posted shipping container labels.
Before you begin to set up which labels reports are printed, you can create custom layouts for the labels. For more information, about creating custom layouts for labels, see Create a Custom Report Layout.
Note
If you want a GS1-128 Bar Code to be printed on the Inventory Label (23019508), on the Bar Code Types page, on the General FastTab, for a GS1-128 Bar Code Type, turn on Default.
When a company is created, or an upgrade is applied, the following records will be added to the Label Configuration page.
Note
Existing records will not be overwritten.
| Item Type | Source Type | Location Type | Label Type | Report ID |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| All | All | All | Item | 23019508 |
