BOX NUMBER LABEL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ‘MULTIPLES’ AND ‘INDIVIDUAL PACKAGES’
Each load carrier, (for ‘multiples’ the outer case and for ‘individual packages’ the pallet or roll container) must bear a unique box number (and barcode). Please note that the barcode number is visible below the barcode. In this way the shipment can still be processed, in case the barcode is not scannable or damaged. At the top of the label the supplier name is mentioned.
This barcode number refers to the packing list on which is indicated the items that can be found in the box. A box number label has to be unique within a shipment (ASN number). A box number needs to consist of at least 3 positions (letters or numbers), but may not start with a J.
The number can be created at: http://www.free-barcode.com/download.htm.

Supplier’s name preference: Font ARIAL Size 12/ maximum 1 line
Barcode code 128 of the pre-alerted box number (as displayed on the packing list)
Box number printed as serial number preference: Font ARIAL Size 9
- Barcode type: 128B
- Minimum height: 14 mm
- Blank line: minimum 4 mm

You can mention them on the packing list, please see instructions for notification of shipments. Wehkamp can only process a pallet label in addition to box labels, it speeds up the process. In this case you mention both box label AND pallet label/
