Description
Label templates can be modified to create custom label designs
Label Template
- The label design
- Can be edited in the cloud designer
- Has a Name, Display-name, and a File path where the template is located on the server
Standard Label Templates
The system comes with Standard Label Designs.
Cloud designer
Online tool to change the visual design of labels.
Tenant
- Tenant isolates customers, their templates, and processing from other customers
- One shared tenant "CommonBC" also exists.
- This is used for customers you do not need to create new templates
Request
- The XML Request to Cloud Print Service contains the data to print a label
Print Dataset
An intermediate key-value format.
Dataset and design are independent of each other, meaning the same dataset can be used by any design, e.g, different label sizes.
- Print request contains mainly the dataset
- Dataset is customizable with events, so you can add/change values in it
- The dataset can include:
- Context (Order, OrderLine, Lookup-result etc.)
- Collected steps
- Customized data. See Print Label and Print Label for examples
Dataset examples for each standard template is available at Standard Label Designs
Standard Template Handlers
Each standard label has a “template handler”, this can be used if you create your own version of a template, but want to re-use the data processing and Step-collection of a standard template.
Handlers make it easy to reuse the existing standard logic and data handling for your own templates.
Data customization
Data can easily be changed through extension/customization:
- Additional values can also be collected by adding new steps
- or you can change existing steps
