: : We now use the daily order reports to print out shipping labels and invoices in a batch.  But it appears that the printing sequence of both the labels and invoices is by ascending customer number, which makes it difficult to match up with the paper copies of orders we receive on heavy order days.  Is there a way to change the printing sequence to ascending order number, or to alphabetical order, to make it easier to match label and invoices up and double check the customer's original paper orders?

: Actually both of these use a Named Find/Sort named "Find Today's Orders (View)NS" which includes a sort by Order Number within Pay Method. That is the wrong "sort" being used for those documents! The correct one is "Find Today's Orders (View)". You will need to correct two "macros":

: 1) Go into Design Mode (Ctrl+D)
: 2) On the top menu bar click Edit, then Scripts & Macros, then Macros. The macro dialog will appear.
: 3) Select from the list the macro named "Print Today's Invoices" and then click the Edit button. 
: 4) You will now see the commands being used for the macro and you can change them.  
: 5) Select the FIND command and you will see at the bottom left the Find selected is "Find Today's Orders (View)NS". Change it using the dropdown list to "Find Today's Orders (View)". Then check the box next to "When no records are found.." because it will uncheck itself when you change the selected Find. 
: 6) Click OK to save your change to this macro.
: 7) Now select the macro "Print Today's Shipping Labels" and make the same change in it. 
: 8) Click DONE to exit the macro dialog and then save the Approach File. 

: Now your daily invoices and labels will be in ascending order by order number.

: PS: If you ever plan to use the envelope option from that menu, you could also change the macro "Print Today's Envelopes" in the same way.
