Bulk printing of Nova Poshta waybills from the orders register
On this page
Bulk printing combines Nova Poshta labels for several orders into one PDF. Open "Sales → Orders", select the orders, click the printer icon and choose "Print Nova Poshta waybill". The system takes only orders that already have a Nova Poshta waybill and opens the PDF in a new browser tab.
What bulk waybill printing is
Bulk printing creates one PDF file with Nova Poshta labels for several selected orders. Instead of opening each order separately, you print all the labels in one document straight from the orders register. This saves time at the warehouse when many shipments are prepared in a morning: for example, 50 parcels are printed in one file instead of 50 separate ones.
Before you start
- Connect the Nova Poshta integration - see Nova Poshta: connecting the integration.
- Create a waybill in each order you need to print - see Creating a Nova Poshta waybill from an order. Bulk printing works only for waybills created from the Customer order document.
How to print waybills for several orders
- Open Sales → Orders.
- Tick the checkboxes on the left in the rows of the orders that need labels.
- In the top action bar above the table, click the printer icon.
- In the dropdown list, choose Print Nova Poshta waybill. The item is active only if at least one order is selected.
- Wait for the file to be generated: Bimp calls the Nova Poshta API and generates the labels in the format set in your carrier online account.
- A single PDF opens in a new browser tab. Click the print button in your PDF viewer.
What you get
The result is one PDF with labels for all selected orders that have a Nova Poshta waybill. The label format is determined by the settings of your Nova Poshta account. Other sales documents can be printed in bulk in a separate way - see Bulk printing of documents.
Common problems
The PDF has fewer labels than the number of orders selected. Cause: some orders have no waybill or another carrier is chosen. Solution: create a Nova Poshta waybill in these orders and print again.
The “Print Nova Poshta waybill” item is inactive. Cause: no orders are selected in the register. Solution: tick at least one order with the checkbox.
The waybill was not created from a customer order. Bulk printing does not work for such waybills yet - print them separately, see Printing a consignment note.
