Bag Tags & Batch Labels
By default, printing labels for an order gives you one sticker per item —
right for cups and prep stations. A bag tag is the opposite: one label for
a group of items, so a three-bag takeaway order gets three tags reading "Bag 1
of 3", "Bag 2 of 3", "Bag 3 of 3".
Printing a bag tag
Open the order and choose Print
From the order, open the print options and pick Item labels.
Select what goes in this bag
Tick the items going into this bag. Select all and Clear are there
for speed.
Turn on One label per batch
Switch on One label per batch — "Print a single tag for the selected
items — e.g. one per bag." The per-item stickers become a single tag.
Set the bag number
Enter the bag / batch number and the total — "1 of 3". The number steps
up automatically after each print, so for the next bag you just change the
selection and print again.
The counter resets when you close the dialog.
Partial re-prints
Because you choose the items each time, you can reprint one bag without
reprinting the order. Select just that bag's items, set the same number, print.
It works on both printer types
| Your printer | What prints |
|---|---|
| Die-cut label printer | A bag-tag sticker, sized to your label stock |
| Ordinary 58/80mm receipt printer | A bag tag on receipt paper |
You do not need a dedicated label printer for bag tags. A normal receipt
printer prints a roll-paper version of the same tag.
Die-cut labels need the add-on; receipt-roll tags don't
Printing to die-cut label stock is part of Advanced Printing. Printing a bag
tag on a receipt printer is not — it uses the receipt path every plan has.
Custom bag-tag designs
If you've designed your own order label under Configurations → Label
templates, batch mode uses it — and your template can carry the batch fields,
including the "N of M" sequence. Setting a custom order template as the one-tap
default makes it the one batch mode reaches for. See
Label & Sticker Printing.
Leave the default alone and you get the built-in bag tag.
What's on the tag
The built-in tag carries the store name, a clear order number with a
scannable barcode, the bag number, the customer, the items in that bag, and
a QR that opens the order.
Check one against real stock before service
Label output depends on your specific printer and stock size. Print one tag and
look at it before you rely on it during a rush — especially that the barcode
scans and nothing is cut off at the edges.
