Courier Integration

One order, any carrier, one click to ship

Create courier consignments and print shipping labels for NZ Couriers and Aramex (Fastway) directly from your IKA Results orders — and we can add any other courier you work with. Live API connections generate tracking numbers, text the customer, and send the label straight to your thermal printer — no re-keying into a courier portal.

Carriers Consignments & tracking Labels & manifests

Multi-carrier

NZ Couriers and Aramex (Fastway) on one screen — plus any other courier we integrate for you. Pick the carrier per order, or let the customer's default decide.

Real-time consignments

Secure API calls create the shipment, return a tracking number and cost, and text the customer automatically.

Labels to the printer

Courier labels print straight to your thermal printer over the network, with a daily manifest ready for pickup.

Multi-carrier

Your carriers, one workflow

IKA Results connects directly to each courier's API, so dispatch works the same no matter who carries the box. Out of the box we integrate NZ Couriers and Aramex (Fastway) — and if you use another courier, we'll build that integration too. The carrier is chosen from the customer's record or overridden per order, and mixed shipments across carriers on the one packing line are no problem.

  • NZ Couriers — OAuth REST API
  • Aramex (Fastway) — OAuth, batch labels
  • Carrier from customer or per order
  • Mixed carriers on one line
  • Any other courier, added on request

Consignments & tracking

Ship it, track it, text the customer

When an order is dispatched, IKA Results calls the carrier's API with the delivery address, items and service level, and gets back a consignment number, tracking reference and freight cost. It stores them against the order and can send the customer an SMS with their tracking number — all in one action.

  • Consignment created via API
  • Tracking number stored on the order
  • Freight cost captured back
  • Automatic SMS tracking to customer
  • Rural, Saturday & overnight services
  • Volumetric weight & dimensions

Labels & manifests

Labels to the printer, manifest at day's end

Courier labels are sent straight to your network thermal printer over TCP — with the barcode split cleanly for the label, human-readable connote and service codes. The daily manifest opens once and caches, and everything can be reprinted if a label jams or a run fails.

  • Direct TCP/IP thermal printing
  • PDF or ZPL label formats
  • Daily manifest generation
  • Reprint on jam or failed run
  • Carton, address & courier labels
  • Invoices & dockets via reporting

From order to doorstep

The courier integration lives inside the domestic order-print workstation — so taking the order, picking it and shipping it all happen in one place.

Sales & standing orders

Take domestic orders on a touch screen — customer, PO and line items by barcode — plus recurring standing orders built from templates.

Pick, pack & consolidate

Scan cartons to the order, capture weights and consolidate CCL cartons — with live stock and balance visibility.

Release to production

Release orders to production stations in bulk by ship date, feeding the same lines the Production Dashboard tracks.

SMS tracking

Customers get a text with their tracking number the moment the consignment is created — and a failed SMS never blocks the shipment.

Secure API connections

OAuth2 token auth with the couriers over TLS, with token caching and clear error handling if a service is down.

Invoices & manifests

Print invoices, dockets and courier manifests through SQL Server Reporting Services, right at the workstation.

Ship faster, with the carriers you already use

Book a demo and we'll create a live consignment to your own address, print the label, and show how it drops into your order workflow.
