Printing Inventory Labels from RLA/RBL

Epicor Eagle™ Labels for Windows users only.

If you have purchased the Epicor Eagle™ Labels for Windows application, and you want to print laser labels for a group of items that fall within the same range (such as Vendor), you can print laser price or bin labels from the Item Price Labels (RLA) or Item Bin Labels (RBL) report screens, respectively. This method works well if you don't want to make any modifications to the range of items you select. (If you want the flexibility of being able to modify items in the range, see Selecting a Range of Items for Labels.)

When printing laser labels from RLA or RBL, the system uses the label format you established as the default price or bin labels in the Options Configuration window.

The printer at which you are going to print the RLA or RBL labels must be set up as a network printer in Modify Printer Status (Function MPS).

1. From the Eagle Browser, click Label Design and Printing Menu, then Click Item Price Labels (RLA) or Item Bin Labels (RBL).

2. From the File to Use window, click on the file you want to use to create your labels.  

   • For price labels, select one of the following files:

   • • Inventory FileSelect this option when you want to print labels for a range of items from your inventory file. For example, you realize that items from a particular vendor have no bin labels.  You'd select the inventory file to print the bin labels, filling in the vendor code as your from/to range.

     • Price Change FileSelect this option to create bin or price labels for items in the Item Price Change file (IPC).  Just make sure you print the labels before finalizing the price changes with the Price Change Report (RPC), option F.

     • Purchasing FileSelect this option if you want to print bin or price labels for items being received through Purchasing and Receiving.  You can print labels for items you received manually, or items you received with Electronic Receipt Posting (ERP).  Just make sure you print the labels before finalizing the PO with the Receiving Report (RRP) option F.

     • Transfer FileSelect this option if you want to print bin or price labels for items being received at your store due to an interstore transfer.  You can select a single transfer by entering it in both the "from" and "to" transfer fields that displays on the from/to page of the Price Label Report (RLA)..

   • For bin labels, select one of the following files:

   1. • Inventory FileSelect this option when you want to print labels for a range of items from your inventory file. For example, you realize that items from a particular vendor have no bin labels.  You'd select the inventory file to print the bin labels, filling in the vendor code as your from/to range.

      • Price Change FileSelect this option to create bin or price labels for items in the Item Price Change file (IPC).  Just make sure you print the labels before finalizing the price changes with the Price Change Report (RPC), option F.

      • Purchasing FileSelect this option if you want to print bin or price labels for items being received through Purchasing and Receiving.  You can print labels for items you received manually, or items you received with Electronic Receipt Posting (ERP).  Just make sure you print the labels before finalizing the PO with the Receiving Report (RRP) option F.

      • Promotion FileSelect this option if you want to make sale signs.  Make sure you set up the option "Default Promo Label format used for Windows Label Printing" so the system knows which label to use when printing bin labels from the promotion file.

      • Item Change fileSelect this option if you want to print new labels whenever an item's description or mfg. part number changes, or when a new item is added.  To use the Item Change file, the option "Allow printing bin labels in RBL for the Item Change File must be set to Y in Options Configuration.
        
        
        Item Change records are purged as soon as bin labels are printed for those changes, even if they are printed using a file other than the Item Change file (such as if you select the Price Change file or the Purchasing file when printing bin labels).

3. From the Print Setup window, in the Printer Number field, enter the printer number that represents the network printer at which you are printing the labels.  Review the default entries in the other fields and make changes if needed.  For a definition of each field, click here.

4. Click (in the left pane of the window).

5. In the Labels to Use field, select 4-Windows Labels. Review the default entries in the other fields and make changes if needed. For a definition of each field, click here.

If you do not change the Price to Print field (that is, if you leave the default of Retail), continue with the next step.

6. Click (in the left pane of the window).

7. Fill in the blank fields, as needed.  Review the default entries in the other fields and make changes if needed.  For a definition of each field, click here.
