3. Set order statuses for import

You can specify statuses (known as stages in Cin7) on which Starshipit will import your orders from Cin7. For example, you can set the app to only import orders which are Processing and/or Fully Picked.

For Starshipit to be able to import orders from Cin7 the below criteria must also be met on each order:

• Sales Orders are Approved.
• The fully dispatched field is empty on each Sales Order.

Provided these conditions are met you can import the orders directly into the New section of your Starshipit account.

4. Importing Dimensions

Starshipit can import item dimensions like from Cin7 setup against your products. To configure dimensions in Cin7 follow the guide below:
Product Settings - Cin7

1. By default, dimensions will assume to be in metres. If you are using a different unit of measure in Cin7, you can configure this from Settings > Integrations > Cin7 settings >

2. Using our Package Setup section you can configure how Starshipit should handle the imported dimensions. See the below guide for further information
