Print or Reprint a Packing List

Use the Packing List Print (OPL) program to print or reprint a packing list for a specific confirmed shipment; the list includes all items ordered whether or not the items are in this shipment. See Background and Road Map for more information.

If you do not enter selection options, you will reprint packing lists for all sales shipments in the system.
