How the selected pickup point is saved to the order and processed during shipping
Description of the data flow from selecting a pickup point in checkout to its use when shipping the parcel. After selecting a point our JS code writes the pickup point address and its identifier into the order’s shipping address data, then the system reads this data and displays it in the shipment breakdown before sending.
Recording the pickup point when selected at checkout
When a customer opens the map at checkout and selects a pickup point, our JS code writes the address of the selected point and its identifier into the delivery address data. This entry is saved with the order so after importing the order into the system these details are available for further processing steps.
Use in shipping and sending to the courier
When creating a shipment, the system reads the pickup point ID and sends the necessary data to the courier based on it. If the eshop did not send a pickup point ID, the system will send the shipment to the address instead of the pickup point. Before sending, the selected location is shown in the shipment breakdown so you can verify it.
Display in the order detail and editing options
In the order administration a field “Pickup point” will appear which is shown only if the order contains a selected pickup point or if the user clicks “Change to pickup point”. The field contains a search input so the admin can check or change the point directly from the order detail.
Where exactly is the information about the selected pick-up point stored?
Information about the selected location is written by our JS code into the order’s shipping address data including the unique identifier of the pickup point. After the order is received the system reads this data and displays it in the order detail and in the shipment breakdown.
Can I change the pickup point after receiving the order?
Yes. In the order details click “Change to pickup point” or use the search field “Pickup point” and select a new location. This way you can change the location before dispatch.
How is the selected pickup point transferred to the courier during shipment?
When creating a shipment the system sends the pickup point ID to the courier if the order contains it. If the ID is missing, the shipment is processed as delivery to an address according to the courier's settings. Before sending you see the selected location in the shipment breakdown so you can verify it.
