Rule-based carrier selection with SLA enforcement
Map incoming shipping methods from sales channels to specific carrier services with cutoff times and SLA deadlines. Wildcard matching catches method variations without creating a rule for every possible string.
- Shipping method to carrier service mapping with one rule
- Wildcard mode for prefix-based matching
- Configurable cutoff times in warehouse timezone

Same shipping method, different carrier rules per merchant delegation
Per-merchant isolation
Different rules for different merchants
Mappings are scoped to fulfillment delegations, so each merchant can have their own carrier preferences and SLA requirements. Merchant A maps Standard to USPS Ground while Merchant B maps Standard to FedEx Home Delivery.
- Per-delegation scoping for multi-merchant warehouses
- Independent SLA and carrier rules per merchant
- Update one mapping to change all future orders for that merchant
Advanced capabilities
Wildcards, cutoffs, and rate strategies
Mappings go beyond simple method-to-carrier lookup with wildcard matching, timezone-aware cutoff enforcement, and automatic rate strategy selection.
Wildcard pattern matching
Enable wildcard mode on a mapping to match shipping method prefixes. A rule matching 'usps_' catches usps_ground, usps_priority, and usps_express without creating three separate mappings.
Cutoff time enforcement
Configure a daily cutoff time per mapping. Orders received before cutoff are held to the same-day or next-day SLA. Orders after cutoff get an additional day, preventing unrealistic ship commitments.
Rate strategy selection
Define how the system selects shipping rates when a mapping matches. The Cheapest strategy finds and purchases the lowest-cost rate across connected carriers for the package dimensions and destination.
Make shipping decisions repeatable
Replace operator judgment calls with rule-based carrier selection, wildcard method matching, and SLA enforcement with configurable cutoff times per merchant.
