What is it?

Consolidation is when you create multiple consignments with the same Connote level Information. There are a few detail that need to match on each consignment in order of them to consolidate:

  • Receiver:

    • The receiver details need to match.

       This

       This includes the receiver contact information. If the contact details are different, this will cause the system to

      create a second address Id for the connote and

      treat it as a different receiver

      ,

      .

  • Carrier & Service:

    • As long as the carrier AND service both allow consolidation.

    • Priority services typically only allow 1 item per Consignment and will not consolidate. Example, StarTra

OneFlo will automatically consolidate future consignments into the original, ensuring you are never spending multiple "Base Costs" for each consignment.

Consolidation is not enabled by default and requires additional configuration.
