This article provides the basic steps for creating a Label Report in iVend Retail.

In iVend, the user can design their own label(s) using the following two options:

· Thermal Label Setup

· Report Designer Label Report

Thermal Label Setup

This feature enables the user to design labels for printing on EPL, ZPL based printers. This label appears in the format list with other formats in the Item Label Printing feature. Figure 1 below, shows the Thermal Label Setup screen:
1. Specify the following:
· Code – Define the code of the label report
· Description – Define the report description
· Width – Enter the width of the label in units.
· Height – Enter the length of the label you are using.
Note: For ZPL Printers Non-Continuous Media (Gap, Notch, Hole or Black Mark), the length is internally set when the printer is calibrated. Use of Continuous Media may use this value but the label length is often included in the format.
· Labels Per Row – Enter the number of labels in each row
1. Insert two text fields “Text”,  “Text1” and one barcode field as showed in the image below.
2. Select the text fields and assign a data field value as “Product Id” and “Product Description” from Misc panel section.
3. Click [Ok] to save the label report.
