Pack Orders Faster. Zero Manual Entry. Zero Packing Errors.
MetaShip Smart Packing adds barcode scan-to-pack, multi-package management, and consolidated SSCC label printing directly inside Business Central — no external tools, no middleware.
Your warehouse is losing time to problems you can fix today.
Manual counts, disconnected label tools, and delayed ERP data aren’t just inefficiencies — they’re errors waiting to happen. MetaShip eliminates every one, natively inside Business Central.
-
Manual entry causes packing errors
Typing item codes by hand creates mismatches between what’s packed and what’s on the order. Scanning eliminates this entirely.
-
Reconciliation delays shipments
When packed quantities aren’t tracked live, reconciliation happens after the fact — slowing the team and creating carrier holdups.
-
Disconnected tools break the ERP loop
Separate packing apps mean your BC data is always behind. Smart Packing keeps everything in sync — no middleware, no exports.
-
Label chaos slows every shipment
Printing from separate systems and collating multi-package PDFs manually — gone. All labels attach automatically inside BC.
Five steps. Fully connected.
No new systems to learn — MetaShip slots into your existing BC pick-and-ship flow.
