Build a Packing Slip — Guides — Documents

Overview

A packing slip accompanies a shipment and lists the items included — without prices. It helps warehouse staff verify picks and customers confirm they received the right items.

Page Setup

Size: A4 or US Letter
Orientation: Portrait
Margins: 40px all sides

Company logo — top-left, 100px wide
"PACKING SLIP" title — top-right, 18px bold, uppercase
Order number (orderNumber) below the title
Order date (orderDate)

Ship-To & Bill-To

Place two address blocks side by side below the header:

`shipToName`	`billToName`
`shipToAddress`	`billToAddress`
`shipToCity`, `shipToState`, `shipToZip`	`billToCity`, `billToState`, `billToZip`
