1. Update your Sales Channels automatically

 

When you connect your sales channels for the first time, you can decide to update them automatically with order info and the tracking number. 

Once the shipment is created, ShippyPro automatically marks your orders as shipped on the sales channels, each one with the tracking number from Label Creator > Shipping Labels.

In a few minutes, you'll see the sandglass icon ⌛️turning into a green tick ✅. This means that both your Marketplace and the Carrier are up to date.

 

If not, it means that the update of your Sales Channels is manual.

2. Update your sales channels manually

 

You can update your sales channels manually either with a Cron Job or directly from Label Creator > Shipping Labels.

Sales Channels Update with a Cron Job

In order to do so, select the orders you'd like to mark as shipped on your sales channels and click on the blue button Actions > Update marketplaces with shipments info: 

 

 

 

Your orders will be then mark as shipped on the relative sales channels with tracking info! 

 

Note: In order to enable the manual update of your sales channels, please be sure that the box Update my (Magento, Amazon, Prestashop) profile with shipped orders tracking numbers and mark as shipped is disabled: 

 

What if I Ship via API?

If you want to update your marketplaces (either automatically or manually) and you are using the Ship API call:

• remember to include the exact same order reference as on your marketplace in the TransactionID parameter of the Ship request (in case you have many marketplaces, it’s advisable to also include the MarketplaceID parameter, since different stores may have same Transaction IDs);

• kindly note that if you are importing your orders via API folder + PutOrder API call it will not be possible to update those custom store orders via ShippyPro.
