Most of this is included if you get the Installation & Setup Service

Aims & Preparation
We're going to get into the meat of pickPack here, and have a quick overview of setting up its options.
Follow the Easy Install Guide & pickPack: Quickstart to get pickPack up and running.
Integrated Labels
If you're printing addresses on Integrated Labels, this is an important step. If you're not sure what this is, I really recommend having a google, printing orders on integrated labels saved our product business literally hours every week, but more importantly made it a lot more organised - you have everything you need for the order in your hand. By the way we manufacture integrated labels ourselves and can do a good deal - drop us a line.
- First up, turn on the shipping address: Add shipping address at bottom? > Yes and have a test print.
- You'll also see Nudge shipping address - you can use this to precisely position the address on your integrated label.
- Other notable sections here:
- Show order ID above address? - useful for when you have packed your orders, you can quickly see which order is which (eg. if the customer requests a last-minute change; or just to quickly work out which orders you have shipped).
- Add Order ID barcode? - you can then automate actions using shipEasy. Eg. as you send each parcel out the door you can set the status to 'shipped', email the customer, and apply a custom tag for the shipment group (all in the time it takes to press the barcode scanning button).
- Add return address at bottom? - if you're making life easy and print the return address in the same integrated sheet, turn this one on.
- You should now have integrated labels printing direct from Magento!
Address Labels
Print a sheet with all shipping addresses.
- Add in order ID barcodes, return addresses.
- Customize label padding and margins to suit your label sheets.
Warehouse/Shipping Printouts
pickPack has a wide range of PDF and CSV outputs available, to integrate Magento with your packing setup - whether that's a large warehouse, or your garage! These are all fairly self-explanatory to setup, but quick overviews follow.
- On the PDFs, you can show up to two tickboxes per line item (handy for packing and checking).
- You can also set it to show the product SKUs as barcodes.
PDF Order-Combined Picklists
These are a great way to get the sum total of what has been ordered for a select group of orders.
- In the config section you can choose to show the total-cost/total-paid/total-shipping.
- This can be useful to work out profit/loss on a group of orders.
- Alternatively if you are dropshipping, or purchasing these items from outside suppliers, you can work out what you'll need to pay them.
PDF Order-Separated Picklists
A nice simple way to get an overview of what has been ordered, what needs picking, shipping method chosen, etc.
- In the config section you can turn on order ID and product barcodes, shipping addresses and methods, and show extra product attributes.
- You can also set it to show out of stock items.
PDF Orders Summary
Similar to the Order-Separated Picklist, this can also show totals paid for each order, including taxable and zero-rated totals.
- You can also add barcodes, so at the end of the day you can quickly reselect relevant orders for further processing with shipEasy.
- This is useful for entering orders into accounts.
PDF Out-of-Stock Picklists
If you're buying in products from outside suppliers, or need a quick overview of which items need ordering from the factory, this will show a list of only those items which are out-of-stock in selected orders.
- You can set what qty to consider out of stock.
- You can configure it to show a custom attribute (eg. shelf).
