The shipping list is a central location where you can track and manage all shipments ordered through Retino. This section provides a complete overview of all shipments, their current statuses, and allows you to quickly respond to customer shipping requests.

What is the shipping list for?

The shipping list is a key tool for efficient management of your e-shop's logistics. It allows you to:

  • Track the status of all ongoing and completed shipments

  • Quickly approve or reject shipping requests

  • Monitor problematic shipments and respond to them in a timely manner

  • Filter and search shipments by various criteria

  • Gain an overview of the usage of individual carriers

Shipping list structure

The shipping list is divided into several clear tabs, which allow for easy navigation:

Tab

Content

In transit

All shipments currently in the delivery process, including those waiting for courier pickup or en route to the customer

Shipping requests

Shipping requests awaiting your approval – typically return shipments requested by customers in the portal

Not delivered

Shipments that could not be delivered for some reason – for example, if the customer was not at home or refused the shipment

Delivered

Successfully completed shipments that have been delivered to the customer or to a pickup point

All shipments

A complete list of all shipments regardless of their status – suitable for a general overview or custom filtering

Working with shipping requests

The "Shipping requests" tab is particularly important because it contains customer return shipping requests awaiting your approval. These requests typically arise when a customer requests a return through the customer portal.

Tip: The number of unprocessed shipping requests is displayed as a numerical indicator on the "Shipping requests" tab, so you always know how many requests are waiting for your approval.

How to approve or reject a shipping request

For each shipping request, you have two options:

  1. Approve shipping – the shipment will be ordered, and the customer will receive shipping information.

  2. Delete request – the request will be rejected, and the customer will not be able to return the item via this specific shipping method.

On each request row, you will find buttons for both of these actions. You will always be asked to confirm the action before proceeding to prevent accidental approval or rejection.

Bulk processing of requests

If you need to process multiple requests at once, you can use the bulk selection feature:

  1. Check the boxes next to the requests you want to process

  2. Or use the checkbox in the table header to select all requests on the current page

  3. After selection, an action panel with "Approve shipping" and "Delete requests" buttons will appear

  4. Select the desired action and confirm it

For automatic approval of all shipping requests, you can set up automation that will handle this task for you. For more information, see the Automatic shipping approvals article.

Filtering and searching shipments

For efficient work with the shipping list, you can use several filtering and searching options:

Basic search

Using the search field at the top of the list, you can quickly find a specific shipment by package number, customer name, or other identifier.

Advanced filters

The filters button allows you to set more detailed criteria for displaying shipments:

  • Status – filtering by the current shipping status (e.g., ordered, in transit, delivered)

  • Carrier – selecting a specific carrier or shipping type

  • Created – the time period when the shipment was created

  • Ordered – the time period when the shipment was ordered from the carrier

  • Shipping type – whether it is customer-paid, store-paid, or contract-based shipping

Sorting results

You can sort the shipping list by various criteria, such as creation date or order date, in ascending or descending order.

Shipping statuses and their meaning

Each shipment can be in one of several statuses, which are marked in the list with colored labels:

Status

Description

Shipping request

The customer requested shipping, which is awaiting your approval

Scheduled for ordering

Shipping is ready to be ordered, but not yet assigned to a carrier

Ordered

Shipping has been ordered from the carrier and is awaiting pickup

In transit

The shipment is currently being transported to the recipient

Delivered

The shipment has been successfully delivered to the recipient

Not delivered

The shipment could not be delivered and has been returned to the sender

Cancelled

Shipping was cancelled by the carrier or at your request

Shipment details

By clicking on any shipment in the list, you will be taken to a detailed view that provides all information about that shipment:

  • Complete contact details of the sender and recipient

  • Current shipping status and its history

  • Direct link to the shipment tracking on the carrier's website (if available)

  • Associated tickets or orders

From the shipment details, you can also perform further actions, such as printing labels or viewing carrier details.

Summary

The shipping list in Retino provides a comprehensive tool for managing all shipping related to your orders. Thanks to its clear structure and intuitive controls, you can effectively track the status of all shipments, quickly respond to shipping requests, and have a complete overview of your logistics processes.

For maximum efficiency, we recommend using automatic shipping approvals, which will save you time and ensure that customers receive shipping information as quickly as possible.
