Carrier Management

This page is outdated. Please go to our new documentation under https://docs.fulfillmenttools.com/documentation.

In order to increase the service level and flexibility on the last mile, our carrier management can be used to connect a wide range of shipping service providers simultaneously to offer various shipping options at different locations.

Shipping Integration

The shipping within fulfillmenttools works like a marketplace where every carrier has its own booth. This module is primarily used in combination with our in-Store Fulfillment but can also be operated headless.

The integration of carriers is used for the following:

• Playing a role in Decisions in the Distributed Order Management

• Obtaining shipping and return labels for sending parcels

• Obtaining the track & trace data

• Automatically finishing the handover task when the carrier has picked up the parcel (see Handover )
