Order Syncing Integration

Order Syncing Workflow

  1. Orders reach a specific status in MYOB EXO
    • Typically using status 0 (Unprocessed) or 1 (Processed)
    • Status can be customized to match your workflow
  2. Every 5 minutes, we check for new orders and create a pending consignment in MachShip with:
    • Warehouse details
    • Delivery address details
    • Sales order as reference
  3. Warehouse team opens MachShip and searches for the order using sales order number
  4. Warehouse team adds cartons/pallets and selects carrier
  5. Within 5 minutes of consignment being manifested, we:
    • Write back shipping details to your order
    • Update the order status
    • Update any additional custom fields requested

This workflow eliminates manual data entry into MachShip while maintaining data synchronization with MYOB EXO.

Setup FAQs

Most MYOB EXO integrations can be setup inside of 2-3 business days from when we receive API access.

Q: Am I able to setup the integration myself?

We do not currently offer self-setup for our integrations due to the amount of customisation and testing required when linking your integration to your MachShip account.
