Pick, pack, and fulfilment

Pick & Pack exists because the space between "order placed" and "parcel on the truck" is where retailers win or lose. Not in the carrier negotiation. Not in the checkout widget. On the warehouse floor. This collection provides an introduction to and overview on the Shippit Pick & Pack mobile app experience.

Pick & Pack is a mobile app for warehouse and fulfilment teams, built to work alongside your Shippit account. It guides your team through picking items from the shelf, verifying them, packing parcels, and generating shipping labels — all from a phone or tablet. When a new order is created in Shippit, it appears automatically in Pick & Pack for your team to action. Operators are guided through the 

What is Pick & Pack?

Setting up your account

Pick & Pack supports three workflow modes. Choose the one that matches how your warehouse is organised. Pick & Pack (default) One operator handles the complete fulfilment cycle — picking items, packing the parcel, and generating the shipping label. Both the pick and pack steps are shown in sequence for the same operator. Best for: Small teams, or operations where one person handles each order end

How picking works

Pick & Pack lets you filter which orders appear in your queue, then sort them using multiple criteria, applied in priority order. The queue re-sorts automatically on every refresh; no manual trigger needed. Filtering with queues A queue narrows your order list to a subset, for example, orders from one store, a specific courier service level, or a particular tag. Your Shippit admin sets up queues i

Filtering and sorting your pick queue

Pull Mode automatically assigns orders to you one at a time, so you never have to browse the queue or worry about two pickers claiming the same order. When Pull Mode is on, the Pull Mode screen replaces the queue as your starting point. Tap Start Next Order and the app assigns the next available order to you. Pick it, come back, tap again — the cycle repeats. When to use Pull Mode Pull Mode works 

Using Pull Mode

In Pick list mode, every item in the order is visible at once. You can pick items in any order — scan any item, tap its row counter, or work through the list from top to bottom. Completed rows dim as you go. Pick list mode is best for solo pickers working through small batches, visually organised warehouses, or experienced operators who don't need item-by-item prompting. How to pick in Pick list m

Pick list: the full order at a glance

In Guided pick mode, Pick & Pack shows you one item at a time. The screen shows the item's name, product image, barcode, and quantity. After you pick each item, the app advances automatically to the next one. Guided pick is best for teams, high-SKU operations, or any environment where step-by-step accuracy is important.

Correcting a mis-pick

If your products don't have barcodes — or you prefer to confirm picks manually — Pick & Pack can be used without any scanning hardware. How manual input works In manual mode, the camera overlay doesn't open and there is no scanner listening bar. The [+] and [−] controls on the action bar (and on each row in Pick list mode) are your primary way to confirm items. Tap [+] to pick a unit, tap [−] to u

Picking without barcodes

After all items in an order have been picked, the order moves to the pack queue. The packer verifies each item, enters the parcel dimensions, confirms the carrier, and generates the shipping label. Finding your order In Pick & Pack mode , you move directly from the pick screen to the pack screen for the same order. In Packer mode , scan the tote barcode to find the order. The app shows the items t

How packing works

Pick & Pack asks you to scan a tote at two points in the fulfilment flow: assign a tote when you start picking an order, and scan a tote when you start packing an order. Both screens use the same scan zone — a text field, a submit button, and a Scan with Camera button — no matter which scan input your warehouse uses. Assigning a tote to start picking When an order needs a tote, assign one before y

Item to Parcel Mapping lets you track exactly which items go into each parcel when packing a multi-parcel order. This creates a precise record of parcel contents — useful for split shipments, high-value goods, and resolving customer queries about missing items. Item to Parcel Mapping is on by default. How it works When packing an order with multiple parcels, items appear in an Unassigned section o

Once all items are verified, enter the parcel details to generate your shipping label. How to generate a label Verify all items in the order (scan or tap [+] to confirm each one) Enter the parcel dimensions — length, width, and height — and weight Review the Allocated Carrier card — this updates automatically based on your dimensions and Shippit's routing rules Tap Generate Label The label is sent

Generating and printing your shipping label

When you can't pick or pack an item as ordered, flag an exception to record the problem and keep moving through the rest of the order. Flag an exception on an item Flagging an exception is available on one-step pick and pack orders. It isn't available on two-step pack.

Using the camera to scan

Scan verification controls whether operators must scan an item's barcode to confirm it, or whether they can confirm items by tapping a button instead. There are two independent settings — one for picking and one for packing — so you can require scans at one stage without requiring them at the other. Optional (default) Operators can scan a barcode to confirm an item, or tap [+] to confirm it withou

Requiring a photo after packing

## Camera shows a black screen

Pick & Pack needs camera permission to scan barcodes.

1. Go to your device **Settings → Apps → Pick & Pack → Permissions**
2. Enable **Camera**
3. Reopen Pick & Pack

If the camera is working in other apps but still shows a black screen in Pick & Pack, close and reopen the app.

## Scanner fires twice (double-scan)

Go to **Settings → Scanner** and set scan speed to **Slow**. This reduces sensitivity and prevents double-scans on fast barcodes.

## Camera is slow or laggy

Close and reopen the pick or pack screen. If the issue continues, restart the app. On Android, switching between zoom levels and back can cause camera lag — resolved in the latest version.

## Wrong barcode is being matched

Ensure you are scanning the product barcode, not a shipping label or outer box barcode. In Guided pick mode, only the current item's barcode is accepted — an error tone plays if you scan a different item.

## Android back button closes the app while the scanner is open

Update Pick & Pack to the latest version. This issue is resolved — pressing the Android back button while the scanner overlay is open now closes the overlay instead of exiting the app.

## Camera torch turns off unexpectedly

Tap the torch icon in the scanner overlay to toggle it back on. Manual torch state is maintained independently of the scanner — update to the latest version for the most reliable torch behaviour.

## RF scanner keyboard doesn't appear

When using a software keyboard alongside an RF scanner, the keyboard may be suppressed. Tap directly into the input field to force it to appear.
