    Do you have further questions about Carrier Connect?

    How quickly can I begin using a new carrier that is already available from AEB?

    If you are already a customer of the carrier in question and have a customer number, then things can move quickly: The necessary master data is updated for the requirements of the new carrier and stored in the system for you. Then you can already begin running the first tests.

    Shipping labels typically have a few barcodes. To ensure the printed labels – especially the barcodes – meet the specifications of the carrier’s scanners, you should transmit a few labels to the carrier for quality control before going live.

    Which printers can I use to print labels?

    Shipping labels are normally printed on thermal printers, which allow the label to be affixed quickly. Carrier Connect is compatible with a variety of common thermal printer models. You can also print labels in PDF format using a laser printer. Here you will find all available printers.

    Do I need to update routing data?

    No. Carrier Connect always provides the latest carrier routing data for you.

    Can I transmit shipping data from my SAP® system to Carrier Connect?

    Yes. Carrier Connect has a standard interface to ERP systems from SAP®. The packing station features can also be integrated directly into SAP® through a plug-in. For SAP® EWM, AEB achieved this integration with the help of the consulting firm HPC AG. The labels are printed directly in SAP®.

    Why is the initial setup different for the various carrier connections?

    Each carrier has its own IT systems and thus its own unique specifications for the content and format of labels, barcodes, loading lists, and EDI messages. This changes the master data needed to configure your system. The required data might include package and/or consignment number ranges, depot numbers, global location numbers, web service credentials, and EDI upload credentials.

    What’s so challenging about shipping labels?

    The transport partners have strict rules, and the labels are very complex. A high volume of shipments also creates a high standard of performance for label printing. Carriers use various kinds of logic to determine the routing code of the packages. There is also a wide range of various barcode formats. Label requirements frequently change. Bottom line: To guarantee smooth transport, the quality and content of the labels – especially the barcodes – must be just right.
