Shipping Orders in OTO PACK

Shipping in OTO PACK is not just about dispatching orders but also serves as an essential tool for tracking orders ready for shipment. Once delivery companies update the status of these orders, they automatically disappear from the list, ensuring real-time visibility and accuracy.

The shipping process is available exclusively on the OTO PACK Mobile App and provides two methods for managing orders:

1. Ship by Packages

2. Ship by Dispatching Units

Dispatching List and Its Benefits

The Dispatching List can be printed before the courier picks up the orders. This document includes vital information such as:

• Dispatching Unit Number

• Total Package Count and Weight

• Individual Order IDs, Shipment Numbers, Box Counts, and Weights

Why Print the Dispatching List?

• Proof of Pickup: It serves as an official record when handing over orders to the delivery company.

• Dispute Resolution: In case of disagreements with the courier, this document provides clear evidence of the handed-over items.

Pro Tip: Always print the dispatching list before the courier arrives to ensure smooth and transparent handover.
