Freight Types
Processing the fulfilment of your orders has never been easier or more efficient with the all-new Freight Types feature.
Using Freight Types, you can specify the method of delivery e.g. Express Shipping Standard Shipping etc. Combined with the new update to the Fulfilment Report (covered below), your staff will be able to filter by Freight Type and focus on express shipping orders first!
Creating/selecting Freight Types
- Manually - through Back Office
- Automatically - if using the Shopify Connector or an eCommerce/webstore API integration using the FreightType field (for more information please refer to Release Notes - v3.12.10 - eCome/Webstore API)
When processing a sale in POS, you will be able to select the Freight Type by clicking the Freight link:
Fulfilment Report
The Fulfilment Report will also display the Freight Types, both as a filter and in the results. For example, you could select "Express Shipping" to ensure you prioritise the fulfilment of those orders first.

Fulfilment Report
We've made two exciting updates to the Fulfilment Report in this release!
- Freight Types added to Filters and Results
- New Attributes section
Freight Types
As part of the new Freight Types feature we've added a Freight Types to the Fulfilment Report, both as a filter and within the results.
Within this filter you'll be able to see all Freight Types (including any that were deleted but still exist on historical sales).
The addition of the filter on the Fulfilment Report ensures your staff can easily find time-sensitive orders (express shipping etc) and fulfil those sales first, before moving onto the remaining standard orders.
Freight Types filter
The Freight Type is visible within the Results as part of the Delivery Options column:
