Fynode offers a sophisticated module for managing shipments, allowing you to dispatch orders to individual Couriers, efficiently split packages, and track delivery status throughout the entire workflow. Below you will find how the shipment breakdown works, managing multiple packages, and bulk dispatch.
- You can access the shipment breakdown via the "Send to Courier" action in the order list (also in bulk).
- The system opens a window with the breakdown of all selected orders to be dispatched.
- For already sent orders, this option is limited – the shipment breakdown will only open for orders that have not yet been dispatched.
¶ 2. Settings and editing in the breakdown
Above the order list in the breakdown, there are:
- Pickup date (datepicker): Select the pickup day (collection of shipments), default is the current day or the next working day.
- Label position: Set the order for label printing (some Couriers require specific settings).
For each order, you can edit:
- Recipient (addresses, contacts, delivery method/pickup point)
- "Check" products (EAN scanning)
- Remove the order from the shipment
Settings before dispatch:
- Courier (list of active Courier profiles)
- Cash on Delivery (amount in the system for the Courier)
- Number of packages (numeric, as needed)
- Packaging (type of packaging: parcel, pallet, letter, etc.)
- Dimensions and weight (width, height, length, weight)
- Reference (custom number or note)
- For multiple packages, you can add additional lines with custom settings.
¶ 3. Bulk dispatch and sending
- After setting all data, click the "Send" button.
- All orders are dispatched to the Courier – PDF labels are automatically generated for download (ZIP archive if multiple Couriers).
- If an order cannot be dispatched (Courier error, missing data), the system shows an error message for that specific order, and the breakdown remains open.
¶ 4. Rules and options for packages
- Enter the number of packages as needed; if the Courier supports individual settings, you can set dimensions/packaging/weight for each package.
- If the Courier only supports a numeric package count, enter just the number (e.g., 2 packages in one shipment).
- Default packaging, minimum weight, or rounding of cash on delivery can be set in the Courier profile settings.
¶ 5. Label management and other outputs
- After successful dispatch, the system automatically downloads labels according to profile settings (they can also be found in the Couriers section).
- Additional services and optional settings are selected based on the Courier's options.
- When dispatching multiple shipments via different Couriers, the system generates separate PDFs for each delivery type.
¶ 6. Order status after dispatch and delivery
- After dispatch, the system can automatically change the order status to "Dispatched" or another custom status.
- After delivery, the status is re-synchronized, and you can set what the system should do (e.g., issue an invoice, change status).
- Similar rules apply for returned or unsuccessful deliveries.
¶ 7. Checks and edits before dispatch
- In the shipment breakdown, you can change various attributes at any time before sending – recipient, Courier, packages, cash on delivery, dimensions, etc.
- For each order, there are buttons for editing and product checking, including EAN scanning via scanner (dispatch with verification).
¶ 8. Shipment overview and reporting
- Statistics on dispatched shipments and dispatch reports can be found in the overview section or directly in the order list.
- Each shipment has a unique tracking number, accessible to customers and your team via Track & Trace.
The shipment breakdown and overview in Fynode enable efficient splitting of orders into individual packages, high-quality dispatching, and automated workflows for all your Couriers, significantly speeding up and clarifying your e-shop logistics.
