Custom order numbering in Picqer
Until now, Picqer used a fixed numbering format for orders and picklists, always in this style: 20130293. That meant a maximum of 4 digits for orders per year and therefore a maximum of 9,999 orders and picklists processed through Picqer annually. Fortunately, several users are approaching that limit, so it's time for more flexibility.
API documentation now available online
As more developers start integrating with the Picqer API, it was time to improve and publish our documentation.
Starting today, the Picqer API documentation is available at picqer.com/api. Want to integrate with the Picqer API but don’t have a test account yet? Create an account and email us to let us know you want to use it as a developer account. We’ll make sure you can test without limitations.

Create MyParcel shipping labels with Picqer
Our goal is to make handling every order as simple and fast as possible. One of the most time-consuming tasks is creating shipping labels. That’s why we integrate commonly used shipping providers directly into Picqer. With just one click, you can create a shipping label from your carrier without ever leaving Picqer.
Last week, we added MyParcel as a supported shipping provider. Do you ship with MyParcel? Link your MyParcel account to Picqer and start saving time immediately. To set up the integration, you’ll need an API key, which you can request from MyParcel by email.
Automatically print picklists with HP ePrint
How can you make your warehouse run even more efficiently? One way is by automatically printing picklists and packing slips. From now on, Picqer supports automatic printing when you connect an HP ePrint printer to your Picqer account.
Why we make Picqer
A warehouse is a fascinating place. So many actions, so many products, so much calm and chaos at the same time. In a warehouse you’re disconnected from the outside world. You have no idea what’s happening outside, how busy your customers are or how much you're being talked about. The only thing you see is a stream of new orders to collect and ship. It’s one of the best environments to get into a productive flow.
