Improvements to Print Packing Slips in Order and OBLPN UIs

We have enhanced the system to directly send the packing slips to the printer from the Orders (OrderHdrView) and OBLPNs (ObContainerView) UIs, eliminating the need for manual PDF handling and ensuring a faster, more efficient workflow.

Currently, the process of printing packing slips (packing list) involves downloading a PDF and then manually initiating the print. Now, we integrated the system with document print functionality, the packing slips can be directly sent to the printer from the Orders and OBLPNs UIs.

A new screen parameter “generate-packing-slip-mode” is added to the Orders and OBLPNs UIs to configure sending of packing slips to printer.

The following table briefs the behavior of the screen parameter “generate-packing-slip-mode”:

Screen Parameter Value Behavior
Blank or Download On clicking the “Packing List” or “Packing Slip” action button, the system creates a PDF file and downloads the same. (Default behavior)
Print On clicking the “Packing List” or “Packing Slip” action button, the system prompts for a document printer. On selecting the printer, prints the packing slip/packing list.
