Highlights
Copy to Clipboard Functionality for Tracking Numbers
We are excited to introduce a new copy to clipboard feature for tracking numbers, designed to make your shipment tracking process faster and more convenient. This enhancement is available in two key areas of ShipRush:
Shipment Grid: Each tracking number now includes a dedicated copy-to-clipboard icon located to the right of the tracking number. Simply click this icon to instantly copy the tracking number, allowing you to easily paste it into carrier websites, or any other application you use to track shipments. This eliminates the need to manually highlight and copy, reducing the risk of errors and saving you time.
Shipment Confirmation Screen: After successfully shipping an order, the confirmation page will also display the copy-to-clipboard icon next to the tracking number. This ensures that even at the final step, you have a quick and effortless way to copy your tracking information for follow-up actions.
Please note that the tracking number itself remains clickable, providing direct access to the carrier’s tracking page as before. The addition of the copy-to-clipboard icon gives you an extra layer of flexibility, whether you want to view the shipment status online or quickly share the number elsewhere.
Screenshots below illustrate where to find the new icons in the interface. We hope this improvement streamlines your workflow and enhances your overall ShipRush experience.
Enhancement
SwissPost Service Enhancements to Franking
🟪 We are pleased to announce the addition of the PP Franking service for SwissPost shipments in ShipRush, further expanding your mailing options and streamlining bulk shipping processes.
What is PP Franking?
"PP Franking" stands for "postage paid" and is a widely used solution for businesses that send bulk mailings through Swiss Post. Instead of attaching individual postage stamps to each package or letter, businesses can now use a "PP" impression to indicate that postage has already been paid. This simplifies preparation, speeds up processing, and helps ensure regulatory compliance for large-volume shippers.
How ShipRush Supports PP Franking:
User Interface Integration: You will now find PP Franking as a selectable option under SwissPost services when preparing a shipment. The interface clearly displays this option, making it easy to select when shipping.
API Connectivity: The PP Franking functionality is also fully supported via our API, allowing seamless automation for businesses that integrate ShipRush into their shipping workflows.
For visual guidance, refer to the screenshot below illustrating where PP Franking appears in the service options.
