2.1 Comparison of Shipping Rates

Once a Shipment is submitted, if the app is installed, the button Fetch Shipping Rates will appear. On clicking, you will get a list of services along with their service providers and rates.

You can also add frequently used services to your Preferred Services using Parcel Service Type:

1. Assuming the highlighted service is our frequently used service, let us add it to our Preferred Services

2. Go to Parcel Service Type > New. Create a new Parcel Service. In our case, it is 'TNT'. 3. Add a Parcel Service Type. In our case, it will be 'Economy'. 4. Add 'Economy' to the Parcel Service Type Alias table as well. 5. Add a description (optional). 6. Enable the Show in Preferred Services List field. Save.

Now when you click on the Fetch Shipping Rates button, you will always see the previously highlighted service under Preferred Services.

After comparing rates, you can proceed with any one of the services by clicking Select against the appropriate service row. On clicking, a Shipment is automatically created on your service provider's platform.

You will notice that the Shipment Information section is updated automatically, based on the Shipment created.

You can also search for your transaction on your service provider's platform using the Shipment ID field.
