Hi there,

1. For your first question, just take a look at your language file in System&gt;Configuration&gt;Language and find this translation, you will then be able to edit it.
2. I'm not sure I understood your second question, you just want the shipping label to change for each command? I yes, you'll have to write some custom code in the shipping plugin file in order to generate a different label according to the given datas. It will require some php skills.
3. Where do you want to attach these informations? Within the email? If so, you can edit the email structure in Systeme&gt;email and add the desired informations.
4. You can only do this in the commercial versions but if you want to test it you can take a look at our demo website: [ demo.hikashop.com](http://demo.hikashop.com)

Eliot, thanks for the response

1. I was able to change the language in the confirmation page.
2. I was trying to generate shipping label in pdf format for each order. Do you know any plug in that can generate shipping labels and can also be integrated into hikashop.
3. Its best to have it in each order's information page. Like some comments about the order, images, and the tracking information for orders.

2. PayPal can handle directly shipping labels for UPS and USPS: [ www.paypal.com/shipping](https://www.paypal.com/shipping)
Regarding FedEx, that will probably require a third party tool like this one: [ www.fedex.com/us/zfirm/shiprush/index.html](http://www.fedex.com/us/zfirm/shiprush/index.html)

3. You can create custom fields of the table "order" via the menu Display-&gt;Custom fields in the Business edition for that.

Thanks for the comments again, Nicolas. The problem for me is I don't get payment through paypal but instead sending out payment, so I wouldn't be able to see that transaction in paypal because my customers don't pay. I have been using paypal and shiprush extensively but as far as i know they can't work directly with hikashop ecommerce store, can they?

3. I will try business edition very soon. thanks for the tip in advance

If you don't use paypal for your payments then you won't get the data needed in PayPal for the labels.
In HikaShop, you can export your orders data as a CSV via the export button of the orders listing of the backend. That will contain all the data of the orders. Then, you can use a shipping label tool which allows for CSV import of the data but the format might not fit and you might need to modify the CSV before importing it.
Another simpler solution would be to use our quickbooks plugin [ www.hikashop.com/en/forum/2-general-talk...tegration.html#93276](http://www.hikashop.com/en/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/78984-quickbooks-integration.html#93276) to generate quickbooks compatible exports and then import them in quickbooks and use a shipping label tool for quickbooks.
