Shipping Integration

The term "carrier" is used in our platform to describe shipping service providers. The carrier management allows connecting different shipping service providers simultaneously and offer various shipping options at different facilities.

Please clarify beforehand which carriers should be made available to your instance.

The module is primarily used in combination with the order fulfillment but can also be operated headless.

The integration of carriers is relevant for:

• Decisions in the Distributed Order Management (DOMS) when assigning orders to facilities

• Obtaining shipping and return labels for sending parcels

• Obtaining track & trace data

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