How to verify multiple orders via barcode scanning

Batch verification lets you scan and verify multiple orders in a row, so you can pack faster and reduce mis-picks.

When to use this workflow:

  • You’re packing at a station with a stack of printed packing lists.
  • You want to verify the contents first, then print labels in a batch.
  • Multiple team members pack orders, and you want consistent QA.

Note: This feature is available for select Ordoro plans. Please contact Ordoro Support at support@ordoro.com for more information.

Start batch packing mode

Option 1: Select orders first

  1. Go to Orders -> select the orders to pack.
  2. Click the barcode icon.
  3. Click PACK Items (Verify Contents).

Option 2: Scan packing lists as you go (recommended at a packing station)

  1. Go to Orders -> click the barcode icon.
  2. Click PACK Items (Verify Contents).

  1. Scan the barcode on the Ordoro packing list to pull up the first order.

Tip: This option is usually fastest because you can keep scanning the next packing list without going back to the Orders list.

Verify an order

  1. Scan the packing list barcode (if the order isn’t already loaded).
  2. Review the order details before you start scanning:
    • Internal Notes (example: “Add a thank-you card” or “Use the branded box.”)

  1. Scan each item as you place it into the box:
    • Qty Verified increases as you scan.
    • If product images are saved in Ordoro, you’ll see them while verifying.

  1. Once an item is fully verified, it disappears from the list.
  2. When all items are verified, click Mark as “Contents Verified.”

  1. Ordoro tags the order as Contents Verified.

What happens after you confirm

After you confirm an order, you can choose what to do next:

Option A: Verify the next order

Choose the arrow button to keep packing.

Option B: Create a shipping label

Choose Create a Shipping Label for the current order.

After a label is created, you can usually:

  • Print the label, or
  • Continue to Verify Next Order.

If you created the wrong label (service, package, or address), you can delete it and create a new one.

Tip: If you don’t want to print labels during packing, you can print later by filtering Shipped Orders to Unprinted Only.

Common packing scenarios

“I’m packing a stack of orders at a table”

  • Use Option 2 (scan packing lists). Scan, pack, confirm, repeat.

“Ordoro says multiple orders are going to the same customer”

  • Ordoro flags this so you can decide whether to merge the orders before you pack. This can save postage and prevent sending two boxes.

“These products look almost identical”

  • Use the product image and SKU/UPC shown in the verify list to confirm you grabbed the right item (common with color or size variants).
