If your warehouse or shopping cart cannot provide all the shipping data you desire directly to the customer, Extensiv Integration Manager provides free integration with the AfterShip platform. AfterShip has both free and paid tiers.
 

AfterShip allows you to:
 

• Track all your shipments
   
• View Delivery failures & Exceptions
   
• Notify the customer via branded email or SMS
   
• Have a custom branded tracking page for your store

Installing the AfterShip App

To install AfterShip,

1. Sign up for an AfterShip Account, or login if you already have one, at the AfterShip website.
2. From under the Integrations section, find and install the Extensiv app in your AfterShip account.

   

3. Follow the AfterShip instructions to collect your Integration Manager API credentials and enter them into your AfterShip account.

   AfterShip will pull order/shipment data from Integration Manager every 3 hours.

    

How it Works

After Integration Manager receives tracking data for each order from your WMS system, AfterShip will collect the tracking number as well as some of the order and customer data to your aftership account. This will allow you to monitor shipments in aftership as well as trigger emails to customers. AfterShip controls the speed of this connection, but generally pulls data every 3 hours.

Tracking records sent to AfterShip by Integration Manager will contain the following fields (when available):

1. tracking_number
2. order_id
3. tracking_ship_date
4. tracking_destination_country
5. custom_fields > order_source
