Hi, is there a way to modify Shopify generated (UPS/USPS) shipping label - for example, adding SKUs in the order to print on the shipping label in the label generation process?

Hey @inlander,

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community! I'm happy to provide some guidance with making adjustments to shipping labels, to get this resolved. To provide some context, shipping labels are managed by the shipping carriers directly and designed to include all necessary elements required to process shipments. Due to this, the only element that is currently allowed to  be adjusted would include the company name on the shipping label. This can be edited within the Shopify admin, under Settings > Store Details > Store Name

 

It's completely understandable how this may not be ideal, but am more than happy to make note of this limitation with our Developers. We are always looking for ways to improve the platform and appreciate the feedback. While we cannot guarantee this feature will become available, the more feedback received on a topic will lead to its likelihood for change. 

 

Please let me know if you have any other concerns.

That is a nice statement, but it is untrue. On the bottom of my Shopify created label is an add that says "Download your free personal shopping assistant at MEET.SHOP.APP" so there is wiggle room on the label for other content. Other shipping companies allow a line on there labels, so a modification can be done. Please SHOPIFY make this happen.

What you are looming for is exactly what Easyship does when you pay for a plan. Also, they could probably use the space under Order # on USPS labels. It would make life so much better adding this small thing to the labels or even the Tags.
