Shipment Labels

Goal #

Tag shipments with your own color-coded categories — priority, customer, vessel, whatever your workflow needs — and filter by them afterwards.

Before you start #

• Any role can create and apply labels.
• A naming convention, ideally. Labels are organization-wide and names are unique per organization (case-insensitive), so agreeing on them early avoids a list of near-duplicates.

Adding a Label to a Shipment #

On any shipment page, you’ll see the label area below the shipment header:

1. Click the + Add label button
2. Start typing to filter existing labels, or enter a new name
3. To use an existing label, click it from the suggestions list
4. To create a new label, type the name and pick a color from the palette, then click Create label

The label appears immediately on the shipment — no page reload needed.

Removing a Label #

Click the × on any label chip to remove it from the shipment. This only removes the association — the label itself remains available for other shipments.

Color Palette #

Labels come in 10 colors:

The color is chosen when creating a label and applies everywhere that label appears.

Bulk Labelling #

You can add a label to multiple shipments at once from the shipments list:

1. Select the shipments you want to label using the checkboxes
2. Use the Add label bulk action
3. Choose an existing label or create a new one

This is useful for tagging a batch of shipments that share a common trait — like a specific vessel, week, or customer.

Tips #

• Labels are organization-wide — all members can see and use them
• Label names are unique per organization (case-insensitive)
• A shipment can have multiple labels
• Labels persist until removed — they won’t disappear when shipment status changes
