💡 Tip: Use a company email address that your team recognizes. This will be the primary contact for all system notifications.

Configure warehouse settings

Customize your warehouse operations to match your needs

Configure your warehouse settings to define how carriers can book appointments. These settings can be adjusted anytime as your needs change.

Operating Hours

Set your warehouse receiving hours

Time Slot Configuration

Define appointment slot duration and capacity

💡 Tip: Start with conservative settings - you can always increase capacity later as you get comfortable with the system.

⚠️ Warning: Changes to operating hours won't affect existing appointments. You'll need to reschedule any affected bookings manually.

Invite team members

Add your warehouse staff to the system

Build your team by inviting warehouse staff members. Each user can be assigned specific roles based on their responsibilities.

Send Team Invitations
