A PO export tells you what should land. Design one receiving sticker in the free label maker, barcode {{sku}}, add {{po}} and {{qty}}, then print before the truck backs in.

Good to know: This tags the inbound carton. It is not an ASN, a packing slip, or carrier postage.

How to print receiving labels from a PO spreadsheet

  1. Headers: po, sku, name, qty.
  2. Open https://app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup. Set 3x2 or 4x3.
  3. {{po}} at the top. CODE128 with {{sku}}. {{name}} and {{qty}} under it.
  4. Upload the Excel file. Print two cartons. Check the scan. Then the stack.

Sample spreadsheet

Tomorrow morning’s PO 8841, trimmed to what the dock needs.

poskunameqty
8841FLT-20Cabin filter24
8841BLT-7Drive belt12
8841GLV-MNitrile M10

First row is the header. Those header words go inside the curly braces on the label, like {{po}}.

After it is put away: location barcodes.

Print or save

Got a Zebra? Print from the browser with Browser Print, at the printer's DPI. Otherwise download PNG, JPG, SVG, PDF, or ZPL. JSON keeps the label you can open later.
