Addresses

Locations list management

An address belongs to one account. Each address can have an external reference which can be used in a booking to select a precise address.

How to create a new address?

As of today, there is no way to synchronise massive list of locations Shiptify. If you have many of them, just add them to your bookings and they will be populated through your address book according to the diagram here under. Although remember that to be saved on your address book, one address should have a name.

Also, please note that country field must be filled with the english name of the country (ie: Germany instead of Allemagne) for a correct address.

First, remember that you always keep your own addresses and you are the only one who can update them. Saying that, if one of your logistic partners tells you that they are already a Shiptify user and manage their docks with our platform, inform us on [e-mail] Then, Shiptify will automatically check if addresses are already master locations. If it is, your flows will be visible on the dock tools of your partner.
