Shipping management in the fashion sector represents one of the most complex challenges for brands and manufacturers today. Every logistics error can compromise the relationship with the end customer and generate high costs.
The integration between ModaSuite365 and ShippyPro was born from this need: to offer fashion companies a complete, automated, and scalable system to manage the entire shipping process directly from their ERP, without interruptions or data duplications.
In this article, you'll discover how this technological partnership works, what concrete advantages it brings to your daily operations, and why it represents a competitive advantage in the contemporary fashion market.
Why the integration between ModaSuite365 and ShippyPro is strategic
The critical role of logistics in fashion
In the apparel sector, shipping is not just the final phase of the sales cycle: it's the moment when internal efficiency transforms into customer experience. A delay, a labeling error, or the wrong choice of carrier can generate returns, dissatisfaction, and loss of revenue.
An ERP designed for fashion must therefore be able to:
- Integrate natively with major national and international carriers
- Manage multiple carriers simultaneously
- Compare rates and services to optimize costs
- Automate label creation and printing
- Track every shipment in real time
What the ShippyPro-ModaSuite365 partnership offers
ShippyPro is one of Europe's leading platforms for multi-carrier management. Thanks to the partnership with ModaSuite365, fashion companies can rely on a native, stable, and constantly updated integration that eliminates the need for custom developments or third-party connectors.
This collaboration allows connection of the ERP based on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with over 200 carriers worldwide, centralizing all logistics operations in a single interface.
How the ShippyPro integration works
Direct connection with over 200 carriers
One of the most appreciated features of the ShippyPro integration is the ability to manage a wide logistics network without having to manually configure each carrier. The system supports major national and international operators including:
- DHL Express and DHL eCommerce
- UPS and UPS Access Point
- GLS Italia and GLS Europe
- FedEx
- SDA (Poste Italiane)
- Bartolini (BRT)
- TNT
Each carrier is managed through APIs, ensuring real-time updates on rates, availability, and delivery times. Adding a new carrier can be configured independently by the internal team, without requiring complex technical interventions or custom developments.
Automatic shipping rate comparison
One of the most relevant competitive advantages is ModaSuite365's ability to automatically compare rates and available services for each individual shipment. The system analyzes parameters such as:
- Geographic destination (domestic, European, extra-EU)
- Total weight and volume of packages
- Contractual conditions negotiated with each carrier
- Required delivery method (standard, express, with insurance)
- Any additional services (scheduled pickup, signature required, doorstep delivery)
Based on the set criteria, the operator can manually choose the most advantageous solution or let the software automatically select the optimal carrier in terms of cost-timing ratio.
From picking to registered shipment: the complete flow
Within ModaSuite365, the logistics process is divided into sequential phases that ensure total control and traceability:
In this preliminary phase, picking lists and physical package preparation are managed. The system allows you to:
- Define the number and contents of each package
- Associate items, sizes, and colors to each logistics unit
- Print internal labels for warehouse identification
- Record actual weight and dimensions
Once preparation is complete, the system automatically generates fiscal and logistics documents (delivery notes, accompanying invoices, packing lists) and activates the ShippyPro integration. In this phase:
- Package data is sent to the selected carrier via API
- Shipping labels and waybills are printed in real time
- The system receives and records unique tracking numbers for each shipment
- Each tracking code is automatically linked to warehouse documents and sales orders
This continuous flow eliminates the need to manually enter data on external portals or manage Excel files for bulk shipment uploads.
Concrete benefits for fashion companies
Error reduction and greater operational speed
Automating shipping management through the ShippyPro integration in the ModaSuite365 ERP brings measurable benefits:
- Elimination of transcription errors: data is transmitted automatically from the management system to the carrier, without manual steps
- Reduction of preparation times: label printing and document generation happens in a few clicks
- Fewer duplications: a single data source for all logistics operations reduces the risk of inconsistencies
- Simplified training: staff doesn't need to learn to use different external portals for each carrier
Better customer experience and return reduction
Punctuality in deliveries and precise shipment tracking have a direct impact on end customer satisfaction. In the fashion sector, where seasonality and delivery times are crucial, a delay can mean a lost sale or a return.
With ModaSuite365 and ShippyPro, companies can guarantee:
- Faster deliveries thanks to optimized carrier selection
- Proactive communications to the customer about shipment status
- Efficient management of any issues or delays
- Reduction of returns due to incorrect or delayed shipments
