Packing materials connected to each order
A box alone does not describe the complete shipment. Include tape, film and void fill with their units and quantities. The store integration sends material consumption to a shared register.
Packaging sets
Prepare repeatable combinations of boxes, tape and void fill.
Appropriate units
Distinguish pieces, length and mass, including their conversions.
Connect through the API
Make catalogue information available to a store integration with controlled token permissions.
Describe what packing actually consumes
Track boxes in pieces and tape or film in the appropriate usage unit. Record dimensions, mass and conversions. A set describes a repeatable packing method, while each usage event should reflect the quantities actually consumed for the order.
- Individual component records
- Sets for repeatable packing
- Receipt and consumption history
Build integrations on stable identifiers
The store and PPWR Link need to reference the same packaging. Agree on item code mapping, units and order identifiers. The API supports a workflow in which material selection during packing feeds the register without re-entering the information manually.
- Swagger API documentation
- Keys with access scope and expiry
- Optional IP address restrictions
Learn more from one event
A usage record links packaging with its origin, documents and quantity. It provides inputs for material summaries and packing analysis. When comparing alternatives, also consider product protection, actual dimensions and empty-space information.
- Materials linked to dispatch operations
- Inputs for packaging reports
- A shared base for people and integrations
How do you calculate box, tape and void-fill usage?
A sample parcel uses a 240 g box, two metres of tape at 4 g per metre and 30 g of void fill. Total material mass is 278 g, while each component retains its composition and unit for reporting. This demonstrates consumption arithmetic, not automatic classification under a particular reporting obligation. Your own catalogue supplies the specifications for actual packaging.
- 1 × 240 g box = 240 g
- 2 m × 4 g/m tape = 8 g
- 30 g void fill; total 278 g
Good to know before you start
Answers to questions about everyday work with the platform.
Can a set include tape and void fill?
Yes. Keep them as separate components with their appropriate quantities and usage units.
What should I prepare for an integration discussion?
Your platform name and version, fulfilment workflow, example packaging identifiers and usage units. We can discuss mapping and connection scope.
