What does Endless send to ShipStation with each order, and what comes back?
Endless sends each fulfillment order to ShipStation as an order and gets its shipments back. Keep stock for ShipStation buildings current with adjustments or imports in Endless. Your developer or an AI coding tool can automate those adjustments through the Endless API with an Operations Integration. API access must be in your plan. Contact Endless support to discuss pulling inventory, products, or orders from ShipStation.
The ShipStation order number is the fulfillment order number. The sales order number is in Custom Field 1. Each order also carries:
- The ship-to and bill-to addresses, customer email, order date, ship-by date, and amount paid.
- Each item’s SKU, UPC, name, quantity, unit price, and weight, and the name of the Endless location it is allocated from, in ShipStation’s warehouse location field.
- The requested shipping service and the mapped carrier and service codes.
- The gift message, with the order marked as a gift.
- The fulfillment order’s instructions as internal notes, or the sales order’s note when it has none.
- The store and ship-from location mapped to the sales channel and building.
Endless sends item weights in pounds, using the product’s Weight rather than its Shipping Weight.
Endless sends third-party billing for orders that receive it from an order integration or the API, using the Third Party Billing Account, ZIP, and Country from the order’s B2B details. For other orders, set third-party billing in ShipStation.
Add order tags and customs details in ShipStation, and contact Endless support to discuss sending them from Endless.
ShipStation sends back each shipment’s tracking number, carrier, service, ship date, weight, dimensions, cost, and items.
ShipStation sends customer shipping notifications based on the store’s settings in ShipStation, where you change the sender and content. For Shopify orders, Shopify can also email the customer when Endless sends it tracking, depending on the Shopify integration’s “Send tracking information to customer” setting.
