Scan and pack parcels with your phone or scanner
Packing mode checks that each parcel contains the right items. Scan with your phone camera or a handheld scanner. Shipnovo runs in your browser, so you do not need a separate app. Packed does not mean shipped: confirm shipment separately afterward.

Step by step
- 1
Open a shipment with labels
Open Shipping and the shipment whose labels have already been created. Click Start packing mode. On your phone, open the same page in your browser.
- 2
Choose a scanner
With a handheld scanner, scan directly into the Scanner field. On your phone, tap “Scan with camera” and hold the code in the frame. In low light, use the Turn on light switch.
- 3
Scan the shipping label
Scan the parcel's shipping label. Shipnovo opens the matching shipment and shows the items that belong in it. You can also open the first shipment in print order.
- 4
Scan the items
Scan each item before putting it in the parcel. Each scan counts one unit. An incorrect item is flagged immediately. Depending on the checking mode, scan the storage location instead of the item or confirm by visual inspection.
- 5
Mark the parcel as packed
Once all quantities are recorded, the shipment is marked packed. If items have no codes, confirm with Packed. At a packing station with a keyboard, press F8; F9 opens the next shipment.
- 6
Confirm shipment
Packed is an internal check only. When the parcels are handed to the carrier, click “Confirm shipment” in the shipment. Only then does Shipnovo deduct inventory and report tracking numbers to eBay.
