What a packing slip does
A packing slip goes inside or on a shipment and lists what is packed. When the box arrives, the receiver checks the contents against the slip, so a missing or wrong item is caught straight away.
It is closely related to a delivery note but focuses on the physical contents of a package: what is in this box, and how many of each. That makes it a practical tool for anyone shipping goods.
Listing the contents
In Receipt Caker, add a row for each item in the shipment with a description and the quantity packed. Prices are optional, because the slip exists to confirm contents rather than to charge.
Include the order reference and the shipping address so the slip matches the right order and reaches the right place. The live preview shows the packed list as it will export.
Checking off the shipment
A packing slip helps at both ends. The person packing can tick items off as they go, and the receiver can do the same when unboxing. Leaving room for a checkmark or note makes that easy.
If the shipment spans several boxes, a clear item count and reference help everyone confirm the whole order arrived, not just one part of it.
Exporting the packing slip
When the contents are listed, export a free watermarked PNG or a Pro PDF to print and include with the shipment. Add your logo with Pro for a branded slip.
Receipt Caker builds the document only. It does not ship the goods, print labels, or track the parcel, so the physical shipping and any invoice remain your responsibility.
