How to initiate a batch process

  1. Go to the Orders panel.

  2. Select the orders you want to process by ticking the checkboxes.

  3. Before processing, you can set values that apply to all selected orders (weight, packaging preset, shipping service, and value) using the bulk action bar at the top of the batch screen.

  4. Click the Batch Process button at the bottom of the screen.

5. Click Process Orders to book all labels.

You'll be redirected to a batch status page. Processing time depends on how many labels are in the batch and how quickly the courier API responds.


Validating the success of your batch

  1. Click Batch History to see the results of your batch.

  2. Click a batch to see the individual order results. From here, you can also download all batch labels as a PDF.

Handling failed labels

If a shipment fails within a batch, you have a few options.

Reship individually. Open the failed order, go to Send a Parcel, and the order details will auto-populate. Adjust anything that caused the failure and rebook.

Reset and retry. You can reset an individual order from within the batch view, or reset the entire batch. When you reset, the system will also attempt to cancel the label with the courier, if the courier's API supports cancellation.

Path to batch history: Orders > Batch History

Note: Resetting a batch cancels all labels in that batch with the courier, where supported. Only reset the full batch if you genuinely need to redo everything.
