How do I set up FreightView shipping in Fulfil?

To set up FreightView in Fulfil, navigate to Configuration → Carriers, click 'Add Carrier', and select FreightView. You'll need your FreightView account credentials and API access. The setup typically takes 20 minutes.

Can I use FreightView for both Shopify and Amazon orders?

Yes, Fulfil's ERP automatically imports orders from Shopify, Amazon, and other channels. You can ship all these orders using FreightView, compare rates with other carriers, and sync tracking information back to each sales channel automatically.

Does FreightView integration support rate shopping?

Yes, Fulfil's FreightView integration provides real-time rate shopping. When you're ready to ship an order, the system queries FreightView for available service levels and displays rates side-by-side, allowing you to select the most cost-effective option.

Can I print FreightView shipping labels from my WMS?

Absolutely. Fulfil's WMS generates FreightView shipping labels automatically during the packing workflow. Labels can be printed in PDF, PNG, or ZPL format for thermal printers. The system also supports batch label printing for high-volume operations.

Does tracking information sync automatically?

Yes, once a FreightView label is generated, tracking numbers are automatically synced to your orders in Fulfil. For Shopify and Amazon orders, tracking information is pushed back to the sales channel, triggering automated customer notification emails.

Can I pre-generate FreightView labels to speed up fulfillment?

Yes, Fulfil can automatically generate FreightView labels when orders start picking or get packed. This is done through automation rules that trigger label generation in the background, so labels are ready by the time the shipment reaches the packing station. This significantly speeds up your fulfillment workflow.

How does rate shopping work with FreightView?

Fulfil's rate shopping compares FreightView rates against other carriers by considering shipping addresses, package weights and dimensions, special services, and base rates (including surcharges and discounts). This ensures an accurate, apples-to-apples comparison so you can select the most cost-effective shipping option.

Can I add shipping insurance to FreightView shipments?

Yes, Fulfil can automatically set insurance amounts on FreightView shipments using automation rules. You can configure insurance as a fixed amount, percentage of shipment value, or percentage of shipment cost. The insurance is applied before the label is generated.

Does FreightView integration support batch label printing?

Absolutely. Fulfil's WMS allows you to batch multiple shipments together and print all FreightView labels at once. You can print in PDF, PNG, or ZPL format, making it compatible with both standard and thermal label printers for high-volume operations.
