  5. Choose the layout

    Copies of each, and Skip labels for a sheet you have used part of: “Already used on the sheet.”

  7. Tap Print labels

    Kila makes a PDF of the labels. Print it at actual size: “The PDF prints at actual size.”

Every price change has its own labels: those made on Margin watch, in bulk, from a price suggestion, on a branch’s price list or scheduled for later. Tap A price change and tick the change: each says when it takes effect, or when it changed, and labels not printed yet until you print them. You can print a scheduled change’s labels before it takes effect.

A price change chosen (1): a change that takes effect tomorrow, labels not printed yet, ticked (2).A price change chosen (1): a change that takes effect tomorrow, labels not printed yet, ticked (2).

Good to know

The owner chooses the layout and what each label shows, under Products › Margins, Price rules: “The sheet or roll your labels print on, and what each label shows.” A label can show the Name, Price, Barcode, SKU, Price per unit or kg, Running offer, Date and Business name; the price is always on it. A business that prints on another sheet describes it as Our own sheet.

Nothing is chosen yet. Add a product, choose a category, or tick a price change.
