Automating E-Commerce Shipping Workflows

Booking

Configuring WooCommerce for WordPress

If your shop runs on WordPress with WooCommerce, blueEX’s plugin works in a similar way:

Install: Install the blueEX WooCommerce plugin from the source blueEX gives you.
City names: Make sure buyers enter the city name clearly, so parcels are routed correctly.
Airway bills: Print single or bulk airway bills from your WooCommerce orders.
Status updates: Status updates from blueEX can keep your order records current. Test this with a few orders first.

Keeping Your Keys Safe

Your store connection details can book parcels and show buyers’ details. Protect them carefully:

Never publish your account keys or codes in public code or website scripts.
Only give access to staff who need it.
If you think someone has your details, contact blueEX straight away and ask for new ones.
