Stock Labels

This option allows you to print labels which you have already defined for your Stock Items on the Setup→Preferences→Define Labels menu option. The stock labels will contain the details for each of your stock items such as the stock code, selling prices, etc. This is a useful facility when you have many stock items for which you wish to add labels to the items or on the shelves in your store. These labels are usually printed on special label paper which can easily be attached to stock items or shelves.
