Suggested Merges

Use Suggested Merges to identify and combine orders with the same destination address.

2 min readUpdated August 22, 2024

Merge Suggestions displays our recommendations for orders you should combine because they share the same destination address. Merging is a smart way to consolidate shipments and cut costs.

Learn more about merging orders.

Warning

Once an order is merged you cannot unmerge the order from the parent or the parent order from the other orders. Once an order is merged into a parent order it cannot be reimported.

Learn how to merge orders and how to use our suggested merges feature.

How it works

Displaying Suggested Merges

  1. Sign in to your Starshipit account.
  2. Ensure you are on UI 2.0
  3. On the main order grid, select SUGGESTED MERGES. MicrosoftTeams-image (16).png
  4. Starshipit will reload the grid and display whether you have any orders that share a destination and therefore could be merged.

Merging a single group

  1. Each alternating row color indicates orders belonging to the same suggested merge group.

  2. To merge a group, tick the orders in the same row group.

  5. Select Merge.

  6. These orders are now combined and removed from the suggested merges group.

Merging many merge suggestions in one go

If you have multiple suggestions, you can bulk-merge orders.

  1. Select all groups to merge or use the checkbox in the top left to select all orders.
  2. Click Merge All.

(Note: When merging multiple orders at once, Starshipit will automatically select the oldest order as the parent.)
