Is it possible to automate tracking info from a local db to bc?

Hi

I would love to automate our AWB and TRACKING URL from our local database into BC.

Is there a method of doing this using WebServices?

I want to send three values to BC - invoice #, AWB, and tracking URL.

Any recommendations or case studies?

much appreciated, thanks!

Spookie,

You can update an order or CRM form (attached to order) via the webservices API, you can send any and all the data you need. You'll have to setup a system a middle man server (or use your existing backend) to download the order and match it to the BC order and on a timer or when the data is available from your other system update the order on BC. I've done this with for a customer and Fedex to give real time tracking numbers within 1 min of the order placed.

hey BcMan, thanks for this. I know it's a bit late in the reply, but I am not ready to implement this. Can I contact you in the near future when our relaunch is happening?

Thanks again,

Spookie
