When orders are ready to be shipped via your fulfillment company, the Figure platform has a direct link to M7, Vinfillment, and Copper Peak Logistics. If you are using ShipCompliant to check orders for compliance before shipment, there is also a direct link from Figure.

On the main Orders page you can select the checkbox next to the order number for one or several orders. Then at the top of the orders list you click the “Choose an Action” drop down menu. In there will be options for ShipCompliant Export [API] and/or M7 [API], VinFillment Export [API], Copper Peak Export [API], etc.

This feature will transfer those selected orders over to your ShipCompliant or fulfillment company accounts instantly. If you are using ShipCompliant, their system can pass your shipping orders onto your fulfillment company.

After you have transferred the order via the API, the shipping status of the order will automatically change from “Not Shipped” to “Processing”.
**Very Important**Once transferred from your Figure account, orders can take about 15 minutes to be visible in your account with the fulfillment company.

In most configurations, the fulfillment company will then send back the shipping data once the order has been processed (date shipped, tracking number, etc).

Contact us to inquire about the process to activate this feature and which fulfillment companies are integrated with our API.
