Create a pre-booked shipment
Use this page to create a pre-booked shipment in the Carriyo Dashboard for a parcel that was already booked and tracked outside of Carriyo.
A pre-booked shipment is a shipment whose tracking number was generated at the warehouse before the record was created in Carriyo. This differs from a normal shipment, where booking and tracking number generation happen through Carriyo. All operations after creation work the same as for a regular shipment.
You can map carrier accounts to pre-booked shipments in the Account System settings.
