TNT Italy Integration

Options
You can customize how the app works using the following options:
- The Default service is the service type that will be used for new shipments, if there is no match in the Shipping method mapping.
- The Sender account id is an account ID the matches to your TNT account and it must be provided by TNT Italy.
- The Sender address can be the address of the Shopify location assigned to an order or an address defined in the Collection addresses page (click the Edit collection address button to edit it)
- The Delivery instructions - you can select if the Order note is sent to TNT as delivery instructions.
- Automation options
- Automatic fulfillment - If app's Automatic fulfillment is enabled. each time a new order is created by a customer, the app automatically creates a fulfillment request for the order and generates a tracking number.
- Calculate Pickup date from Delivery date - If checked, the app tries to calculate the pickup date based on the Delivery date from Additional details, using the 'Additional Details Key' from list options. The additional details for an order can be added by other apps, like Zapiet click and collect and others.
When this option is enabled, the option to manually select the pickup date when you fulfill a batch of orders will apply only to orders without Delivery date in the Additional details section.
If the Delivery date is found, pickup date will be set to the day before delivery date. - Forward pickup date (days) - By default, the pickup date is initialized with the current date. If this value is grater than zero, then the pickup date is initialized with curent date plus the number of days entered in this field.
- Pickup next day after - After this time of day, the default pickup date is moved to the next day instead of the current day.
- Send Shopify shipment notifications - If enabled, notification emails are sent to customers, by Shopify, when delivery reaches various states: package on the way, package out for delivery, package delivered.
Shipping method mapping
The Edit Shipping Method Mapping button - opens a new page to edit the mapping between the shipping methods configured in your Shopify store and TNT services:
In the above page, you can select a default TNT service for each shipping option you have defined for your store.
There are two types of mappings:
- Shipping settings mapping - In this case, you can select a default TNT service for each shipping option you have defined for your store in the shipping settings of the Shopify Admin.
- Manual mapping - In this case you can manually define Shipping Titles which can be mapped to TNT Services. This option is useful when your store is using other apps to define the available Shipping methods, like Intuitive Shipping
How it works:
Each time a shipment is created on the TNT system, our app has to select a TNT service from the available services (services with a pickup account configured).
We take the next steps to pick the most appropriate service:
- Look into the shipping methods mapping to see if the shipping method selected in the order is mapped to a TNT service - if it is, and that service is available (has a pickup account set), then use it.
- If previous step was unsuccessful, use the Default Service selected in the app's options page.
Order tracking
After the tracking number is created the integration app checks the delivery status periodically and updates the order status in Shopify accordingly.
In the Order tracking page, you can see the list of orders that are currently tracked by the app. The list can be printed or exported to a CSV file.
There is also the option to print a 'bordero' file with a list of selected orders, which can be handed over to the TNT driver when the packages are collected.
