Warning

Adding multiple shipping units to OneFlo requires the account manager to raise a case to IT Service desk team and can take some time. Please consider whether or not these need to be loaded in bulk or can be done manually.

Minimum number for Bulk

Uploads completed by IT are considered on a case by case basis. Minimum number of Shipping Units for IT to upload into OneFlo - 40 

Import - 40 

  • This is because Bulk Uploads require a custom SQL script to be validated, written and tested internally. Then executed by our developers who must stop existing development to implement into the production database.

    • This is not an automated process that IT just 'run' and can take up to 40 minutes of total IT time.

    • In addition, this process is considered to be high risk. Incorrect implementation(Code/Syntax errors) can bring down ChainIT and OneFlo for all customers and carriers 

 We only offer this is to assist with unmanageable levels of User/Item/DG creation/updates. (multiple hours worth)

Instructions

  1. Use attached spreadsheet for best format.

  2. Send excel spreadsheet to account manager for approval and review

  3. Account manager to send reviewed spreadsheet to IT Support to bulk upload
