Courier Integration

Sicon Courier Integration is aimed at businesses requiring the ability to select available Couriers at sales order despatch and print labels ready for Courier collection. Direct links to each Courier removes the need to deploy middleware software, reducing costs and simplifying setup.

Available as a stand-alone module, Sicon Courier Integration will work alongside standard Sage 200 Sales Order Despatch process. With the addition of Sicon Barcoding & Warehousing, this further extends functionality to provide a full end-to-end pick, pack and despatch process.

When combined with Sicon Documents this enables users to email the despatch note, alongside the Courier information and tracking number. Pre-configured PDF backgrounds and HTML templates allow businesses to fully brand these communications.

The Sicon Courier Integration module is available to buy via your Sage Business Partner.

The module integrates with Sicon Barcoding & Warehousing and Sicon Documents (available at an additional cost, please refer to our price list for more information).
