Carrier Record Maintenance

Carrier records form a key component of a 'carrier interface' system which will enable you to offer a range of delivery/shipping options by real-world 'carrier' companies on delivered orders. See Carrier Maintenance.

Carrier records hold the name, address and other details of each Carrier company you will be using (i.e. each delivery service provider); e.g. Royal Mail, Parcelforce Worldwide, DHL, UPS, FedEx and TNT.

Each Carrier you work with must have a Carrier record and a linked Supplier record (which is flagged as a Carrier) in Quantum VS.

Carrier records are created automatically when you either create a new Supplier record, or amend an existing Supplier record so that it is flagged as a Carrier. Alternatively you may create a Carrier record from scratch.
