Automate Your Shipping With the Interparcel Rule Manager

The Interparcel Rule Manager is a powerful tool designed to reduce manual processes, save time, and provide flexibility in shipping management.

It does this by automating repetitive tasks and increasing operational efficiency. For example, with Rule Manager, you could set rules to automatically assign specific couriers based on destination or order weight, ensuring that heavy packages always go with the most cost-effective option. You can also create rules to prioritise express shipping for high-value orders, or to automatically select a specific pickup address for certain products, ideal for businesses that source items from multiple locations.

Ultimately Rule Manager lets you define conditions and actions to automate various tasks, ensuring efficiency across your shipping workflow.

Here are a few key considerations when setting up rules:

• These rules will only apply to orders after they've been imported into the Shipping Manager, and will not apply to live quotes provided at your checkout.
• Information on your inventory page will always take precedence over rule-based dimensions and weights. Adjust them to zero on the inventory page for the rule to apply.
• Rules apply to newly imported orders and won't work retroactively.
• Rules operate in the order they are set, so ensure proper order if conflicts arise.

Best of all, Rule Manager is free for all Interparcel account users and doesn’t require additional integrations to get started.
