Barcode Generation

Generate scannable barcodes for cartons, pallets and shipping labels — without manual work.

Barcodes keep fulfilment moving. Barcode Generation helps you create consistent, partner-ready barcodes from the data already flowing through your order and despatch processes, reducing scanning errors and improving traceability.

The problem it solves

Barcode mistakes are expensive and frustrating:

• incorrect or inconsistent label formats

• manual barcode creation that doesn’t scale

• scanning failures at goods-in and dispatch

• weak traceability when cartons/pallets move between sites

• retailer or 3PL non-compliance causing delays and chargebacks

Barcode Generation keeps your labels consistent and scannable.

What Barcode Generation does

Create barcodes from operational data

Generate barcodes based on your order, shipment and product data so labels match what’s being shipped.

Support common barcode formats

Produce widely used barcode types for retail and logistics workflows (format selection depends on your trading requirements).

Improve scan rates and reduce errors

Consistent generation and formatting reduces failed scans and re-labelling at the warehouse.

Strengthen traceability

Barcode values can be tied to documents and references so you can follow items through pick, pack, dispatch and delivery.

How it works

1) Choose what you’re labelling
Cartons, pallets, shipments, items, locations, or customer-specific requirements.

2) Generate barcode values
Create barcode data from the relevant identifiers (e.g. product codes, shipment references, SSCC-style IDs where required).

3) Output for operations
Use barcodes within PDFs/labels or downstream printing workflows depending on how your warehouse operates.

4) Keep it linked to the trail
Barcodes stay connected to the underlying documents and shipment activity for audit and support.

Key benefits

• Faster warehouse handling: fewer scanning failures and delays

• Reduced rework: less manual label creation and correction

• Better compliance: align with retailer and 3PL labelling expectations

• Improved traceability: stronger tracking from dispatch to delivery

• Cleaner operations: consistent outputs across teams and sites

Best-fit use cases

• Retail and grocery supply chains with strict labelling requirements

• 3PL and distribution workflows that rely on scanning

• High-volume fulfilment where manual labels don’t scale

• Multi-site operations needing consistent traceability

• Businesses wanting fewer goods-in disputes and delivery issues

FAQ

Which barcode formats are supported?
Barcode Generation supports common formats used in retail and logistics. The best choice depends on your trading partner and label requirements.

Can barcodes be generated per carton or pallet?
Yes — barcodes can be generated at the right level (item/carton/pallet) based on how your operation ships and how partners receive.

Does this help reduce chargebacks or failed deliveries?
It can. Many delays and disputes stem from unreadable or inconsistent labels. Reliable barcode generation improves scan success and reduces re-labelling.

Can barcodes be tied back to orders and despatch data?
Yes — barcode values can be associated with the underlying references so teams can trace what was shipped and when.
