Label generation is the process of creating a shipping label that contains important shipment details required for courier processing and delivery. A shipping label usually includes the AWB number, sender and customer address, barcode, courier partner name, product details, and payment type such as prepaid or COD. Once an order is confirmed, the shipping platform or courier system automatically generates the label for the shipment.

This label is printed and attached to the package before pickup or dispatch. Courier companies use the barcode and AWB information on the label to scan, track, and route shipments accurately throughout the delivery journey. Proper label generation helps reduce shipping errors and improves operational efficiency. Shipping aggregators also provide bulk label generation features for businesses managing large order volumes. Accurate shipping labels are essential for smooth delivery, tracking, and logistics management.
