Questions about switching
How do my open orders come over from Shippingbo?
Orders from a previous tool come in as an import and land in the same queue as every new order. Website checkout, marketplaces and delivery platforms (through Sync), kiosks, client portals, phone entry and the API all feed that one queue, and each order moves line by line through its stages.
Do my carrier accounts carry over?
Yes. Parcel carriers connect with your own account on each carrier's published API, for rates, labels and live tracking: Colissimo, Mondial Relay, DPD, GLS, DHL Express and UPS among them. Local couriers and your own drivers work from the same orders.
How are returns handled?
One return lifecycle covers every order and in-store sale: request, approve or deny, then complete. Goods are restocked once, or not at all for damaged goods, and the refund is issued through Payments. Marketplace returns arrive through Sync into the same lifecycle, and the decision goes back to the marketplace.
