Stub page, the structure below outlines what the finished page will cover.

Use package templates to define reusable package types (box sizes, mailer sizes, pallets) so operators can pick a template at shipment creation instead of entering dimensions and weight each time.

Creating a package template

  • Dashboard path: Settings > Administration > Package Templates (/settings/package-templates).
  • Step 1: Click + add template.
  • Step 2: Name the template (for example, "Small box", "Mailer S").
  • Step 3: Enter dimensions (length, width, height) and tare weight.
  • Step 4: Save.

Using templates

  • At shipment creation, pick a template from the Package dropdown.
  • Carriyo populates dimensions and weight; you can still override per shipment.

Managing existing templates

  • Edit, duplicate, or delete templates.
  • Activate or deactivate.
  • Reorder to control how they appear in the dropdown.
