BC- Bulk print packing list/ invoices

Hi All,
I have searched and so far, have failed in finding out how to print all invoices/packing lists from a batch to ship today from Business Central. 
We currently use GP 18 and have a custom exe which takes the invoices from a batch and prints them with a template as a PDF. 
The warehouse then prints the 100 + page PDF as packing lists for that day's orders. 
Does BC have this functionality to print invoices/packing lists from a batch as a bulk print with a template? 
Where is it located? 
Searched around in the trial but could not really find it.

We have found there are ways to do Bulk printing in GP

    Thank you 
    We will try those methods and see how it goes

    As a follow up
    Any ideas on current process for BC to Whse  other than bulk printing? It is a small whse and they are not using picking lists or anything so far. But I would like to make the process better for them if possible.



    Could this be done in Sales Invoices? (did not see a print button on test company)
    Is there a way to add a barcode of the invoice number to it?

    Hi, generally, most problems can be solved by following the method mentioned by Valentin.
    But if invoice 1 and invoice 2 do not use the same layout, or use the same report id, this needs to be customized.
    More details:
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    To batch print in Business Central simply change the filters in the report request page when you go to print one document or entry. For example, in the Posted Sales Invoices Page, if you select Print
     
     
     
    The report request page will be automatically filtered to print the one invoice that was selected. But you can remove these filters and add another filter. For example, a posting date filter to print all invoices from a specific date. This way the system will essentially batch print.
