Sending Packages
↑ Back to topThe plugin has an additional block on the edit order page synchronization with your personal account.
Package sizes are set according to your settings for a particular method in the Custom package size section.
After a new shipment has been created, you will see the ID that was assigned to the shipment as well as the tracking number. But please note that the tracking number may not be assigned automatically when the shipment is created.

Tracking

You can send it manually when you consider it necessary or immediately after a new shipment has been created or as soon as the order status has changed to “Delivering”. Automation of the process is carried by using the option “Synchronize order with tracking status” which regularly checks all orders and synchronize them with CDEK.
