How To: Create New Labels Based on the Customer Default Label

Customer labels can be created which are automatically used without the user being prompted for which layout to use every time they print labels. New labels can be based on the customer label template.
Note: if you wish to create a range of customer address labels so the user is prompted for which template to use whenever labels are printed then the CUSTOMER LABELS must be renamed.

  1. Open the Label Setup screen screen (show me how).
  2. In [ Label Setup | List ] screen click on the Go button.
    Note: you will need to rename the CUSTOMER LABELS so the user is able to select the type of label to print.
  3. Press Ctrl+N or click the New item icon is the button bar's NEW button .
  4. In the [ Label Setup | Detail ] screen enter the description of the label in the Description field at the top. This will be seen by the user when selecting the label template to use.
  5. Click on the BtnDefaultCustomerLabel.jpg button, this will set all the values to the default customer label values which are:
    • Left Margin = 10
    • Top Margin = 13
    • Column Inc = 95
    • Row Inc = 33
    • Columns = 3
    • Rows = 8
    • Font = Arial size 10
    • Customer Label: name and address of customer.
  6. The other options can be amended as required for example adding an image or changing the font, see How To: Create Customer Labels.
  7. Press Ctrl+S or click the disk icon is the button bar's SAVE button to save.
