Setting Default Ship-From and Remit-To Address Information
Logicbroker has the ability to populate ship-from and remit-to address information based on a one-time setup in your Logicbroker account. The ship-from address is typically used for the creation of shipments and the remit-to (or remittance) address is typically used for the creation of invoices.
Example of Use
If you are connected to a retailer that requires a ship-from address and you don't want to have to type in the same ship-from address when you create ever new shipment document, this feature would save time (see screenshot below on where the information is required in a shipment).
Instead of typing in this information manually or using the address book each time, Logicbroker can pre-populate the fields. This is ideal when you have a primary ship-from address where most of your shipments originate. You can overwrite what is pre-populated as needed as well.
Setup Process
- Go to Settings -> Account Information: https://portal.logicbroker.com/profile/account-information
- Select Edit Ship From Addresses (see screenshot below)
- You can set up a default ship from address for the entire account (regardless of retailer) or you can set up unique default ship-from addresses for each retailer you support.
- Enter in the address information (see screenshot below). Best practice is to include:
- Company Name
- First Name/Last Name (Contact Name)
- Address Line 1
- City/State/Zip
- Country = US (not USA, not U.S., not U.S.A., not United States)
- Phone
- Click Save.
IMPORTANT: This process is the same for setting up a default remit-to address, except that you select Edit Remittance Address on the Account Information page.
NOTE: At this time, the invoice does not visually pre-populate with your default remit-to address but it is inserted automatically after you submit the invoice.
