Simple Picking and Shipping Label Generation

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

Seeking a simple, integrated warehouse picking and shipping-label solution tied to Shopify. Picking = selecting items in a warehouse for an order; freight label = carrier shipping label; dropshipping = orders fulfilled by third-party suppliers.

Operational context: multiple Shopify stores, ~5 warehouses handling location-based fulfillment, plus dropshipping from Shopify and non-Shopify stores.

Key requirements:

  • Web portal for warehouse staff to pick/transact without Shopify admin access.
  • Multi-user, location-based permissions (users only see orders for their fulfillment location).
  • Australia Post integration to print labels immediately after pick completion.
  • Scan-based verification of product and quantity.
  • Block label generation until pick is fully complete.
  • Real-time sync: any Shopify edits (customer, order, product, quantity) reflect instantly in the app without manual updates.

Current challenge: found separate apps for picking/packing and label printing, but combining them is costly and cumbersome. Requesting recommendations; no solution or decisions yet. Discussion remains open.

Hi all,

Looking for a simple picking solution with freight label generation on completion

Were looking for a solution but cant seem to find an appropriate app or solution was hoping to see if anyone here has a solution

We have multiple stores We use around 5 warehouses to pick and ship products based on order location. We also offer some dropshipping services from other shopify and non shopify stores for our products.

Looking for a solution that:

  1. has a webportal that the warehouse can pick and transact (without shopify store access
  2. have multiple users so that the only those users defined for a location can view and transact picking and orders assigned to that specific fulfilment location.
  3. Integrate with Australia Post and print freight label immediately after pick completion
  4. Some pick verification - product and quantity verified by barcode scan
  5. Prevent freight labels to be generated if pick not complete.
  6. Any edits in shopify (customer and/or order, product, quantity on pick) must reflect in App immediately without the need to update a 3rd party app

just looking for a clean simple, easy to use system with a bit of integration.

  1. Pick (with scan validation)
  2. Print freight label when complete

I can find some good picking/packing providers and good freight label printing apps, but combining both is just expensive and makes the simple process a lot more difficult when flipping between them

Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
