Bin Labels Report
The Bin Labels Report prints bar-coded bin (or shelf) labels for Quantity Tools (Type Q) and Materials & Consumables.
Note: Bin labels cannot be printed for Unique Tools (Type T) or Equipment (Type E) because these items are uniquely tracked and labeled at the individual asset level.
Bin labels display the selected item identifiers in the chosen format, ready for printing and application to bins or shelves.
FAQ
Can I print bin labels for Unique Tools (Type T) or Equipment (Type E)?
No. Bin labels can only be printed for Quantity Tools (Type Q) and Materials & Consumables. Unique Tools (Type T) and Equipment (Type E) are individually tracked and use asset or tool labels instead of bin labels.
