SHIPPING OPERATIONS · Workflow idea

Prepare shipment details with the cost and commitment visible.

For a seller-authorized shipment, retrieve shipping quotes and shipment details, then prepare a label for review when requested. Protect recipient addresses and shipment identifiers, verify package and destination information, check costs and service terms, and require an authorized seller to approve shipment creation or cancellation before it is submitted.
