Overview

This section will cover how to print stock labels for your inventory. There are two styles of labels that can be generated from the AMI system; a Master Stock Label and a Detail Stock Label. The Master Stock Label is typically used for consumables or stock room shelf/bin identification (a bin label could be printed to indicate “AN3-10A’s go here”). Detail Stock Labels are used for parts that are serialized or require lot level traceability (or whenever co-mingling line items of the same Master Part is not desirable). Once you are up and running with AMI, Detail Stock Labels are usually printed at the point of Receiving and affixed to the item.

This section will show you how to generate, format, and print each type of label. You can also use the Avery Design Studio to customize your label.

Master Stock Label

Detail Stock Label

Detail Stock Labels are used for serialized components and parts that require lot traceability. These labels contain two barcodes, the Master Part Number barcode, and the detailed stock Control Number barcode.

These labels work very effectively with the WBEX Pro app (available for download on the Apple or Andriod app stores). By scanning the Control Number on the label with the WBEX Pro app, you can pick that part directly to a Work Order. The Control Number allows the serial number, lot number, manufacture, detailed pricing, attached 8130’s and manufacturer certs, and all the other detailed line item information to flow to the work order – so Control Numbers are very important!

There are several print options available such as 3”×2” Condensed and 4”×6” for both Sheet and Roll labels. Condensed labels will show just be two barcodes and the standard label will show more information.

There are two ways to create a Stock label, at the time of Receiving or from your existing inventory. To generate a stock label from your existing inventory, select the part from your Inventory List. In the Part Detail Record section, click the View/Print Label icon . This will open a print window. Choose the style label you prefer and right-click on the screen to open a print dialog page.
