# Creating a packing list

### Introduction

Paragon's **pack** module allows you to prepare and organize your items ready for shipment. In this article, we'll walk you through how to manually create a packing list as well as how to create a packing list from a pick ticket and an order.

The **pack** module is based on Paragon's standard transaction screen, to get a better understanding of navigating these screens, check out our guide on [How do transaction screens work](https://support.paragon-erp.com/how-do-transaction-screens-work?hsLang=en).

#### Open the pack module

Open the **pack** module by selecting it in the right-hand navigation bar or in the **more **menu.

#### Creating a packing list manually

This is the list view of the packing list module. To add a new packing list, click **add new packing list**.

Select the method you want to create the packing list from. In this case select **manual**.
