Configuration

1. In the left menu of the Cloud App, click on Order Aggregation  under Configurations .

2. Once the Order Aggregation Events List page is displayed , click the Add Order Aggregation Event button to proceed with creating the new event  .

3. Click Save & Close   to complete the event creation .

4. After creating the order aggregation event, the next step is to associate the relevant activities , so as to correctly structure the operational flow.

5. Click on Activities   and then on Create Shipments from Aggregated Orders 

6. Once you reach the Add Activity – Create Aggregated Order Shipments page , it is time to precisely set the parameters for the correct aggregation of orders.

Order aggregation is a strategic feature that allows you to consolidate multiple automatic orders destined for the same recipient into a single shipment . This significantly simplifies:

  • Logistics management , reducing the number of packages and passages
  • Shipping costs , thanks to the optimization of flows
  •  Delivery times , with less handling
  • Customs documentation becomes more streamlined

 In practice, you move from multiple separate shipments to a single coordinated operation , improving efficiency and traceability.

7. Using the "Aggregate orders overriding system preferences" option , you have the ability to override the pre-configured shipping rules by aggregating orders in a customized way.

8. If you select the "No" option in the Aggregate orders override system preferences item, shipping is handled based on the original order settings , without any forced modifications or aggregation.

This means that:

  • Each order maintains its own assigned courier and related delivery times
  • Shipments are separated , as per automatic configuration
  • Any system preferences (such as groupings or consolidations) remain unchanged

9. Click Save and Close   to finish the setup
