Is there a way to customize/add data on this shipping label?

@dalton So it appears that the labels are actually generated via the carrier’s API and then stored as an image on the package record. See the discussion here about using the Custom Ref # fields seen below.  Test this and see if that works for you.

Hi @dalton - Just to confirm… you are printing Shipping Labels from within Acumatica, correct? Not an external shipping solution?

Hey @dalton, can you provide the report id or url that you’re using to generate the labels. If it’s a standard report, I could add the SO number and provide the report file.

You might consider a report/subreport structure for this to make management easier in the future.  Keep in mind modification to the printed labels warrants re-certification from common carriers that require certification.
