Connecting EasyTrans
With the EasyTrans integration, you create shipping labels in Picqer with a carrier via EasyTrans. EasyTrans built the integration. If you have questions, contact your carrier or EasyTrans at info@easytrans.co.uk.
Preparation
This integration lets you ship with a carrier that works with EasyTrans. Your carrier sets up the connection in EasyTrans and sends you an invitation email. You then set up the integration in Picqer yourself.
You need these details from your carrier:
- Two URLs from your carrier's EasyTrans system, from the invitation email. One ends in 'import_picqer.php?action=config-options' and the other in 'import_picqer.php'.
- The username and password of your EasyTrans account.
Do you use EasyTrans yourself, for example as a carrier or for your own transport? Then you need the EasyTrans module for the Picqer integration. You create a user account in EasyTrans that Picqer uses to register shipments. The steps are in the EasyTrans manual (in Dutch). If you don't have the module yet, contact EasyTrans.
Connect the shipping provider
You connect EasyTrans through the Custom shipping provider.
In Picqer, go to Settings > Shipping providers > Add new shipping provider > Custom.
Give the shipping provider a name, such as the name of your carrier.
Enter your EasyTrans details.
- Configuration URL: the URL ending in 'import_picqer.php?action=config-options'.
- Shipment creation URL: the URL ending in 'import_picqer.php'.
- Username (optional): the username of your EasyTrans account. EasyTrans requires this field.
- Password or API key: the password of your EasyTrans account.
Click 'Save'.
Set up a shipping profile
In the shipping profile, you use 'Service' to choose which of your carrier's shipping methods Picqer uses. Each shipping method needs its own shipping profile. Add more with 'Add shipping profile' and let a rule pick the right one.
Packaging
If you use packaging, you also choose the packaging when you create the shipment. To carry it over to EasyTrans, ask your carrier to link your packaging to the goods types in EasyTrans.
