Order Documents

Generate packing slip PDFs from orders

From an order you can generate a packing slip PDF. It uses your organization's logo and configured templates, and can be printed, downloaded, or shared digitally.


Packing slip

A packing slip lists the items and quantities in the order. It is sent with a shipment or used as a pick list. Currently, packing slips are the only order document type available in Beam.


Generating a packing slip

To generate a packing slip from an order:

  1. Open the order.
  2. Press the three dots (⋯) to open the order menu and select Packing slip PDF.
  3. The PDF is generated and downloaded automatically.
  4. You can then open the file to print it, or share it via email or another app.

What is included in the packing slip

  • Header: Title "Packing Slip", order number (e.g. ORD-829280), reference, date, and delivery date.
  • Delivery address: Customer name and full shipping address.
  • Product table: Columns Product, Art. no. (article number), and Qty (quantity). A summary shows total lines and total pieces (e.g. "1 line", "4 pieces").
  • Remarks: Notes or special instructions from the order.
  • Signature block: Lines for signature and date (if configured).
  • Footer: Your organization name and page number (e.g. 1/1).

Customizing document templates

Document templates control the layout, logo, and content of the packing slip PDF. Templates are configured per organization in Settings.

  • Upload your organization logo to have it appear on the packing slip.
  • Set your organization address and contact details.
ℹ️
Template configuration requires administrator permissions. Contact your Beam administrator if you need to update your document templates.
