• Order data is read from commercetools (orders, customers, line items, addresses), normalized to parcelLab shipment/tracking objects, and sent via API.
• Shipment creation and tracking number assignment are synchronized from OMS/WMS or carrier events, with parcelLab treated as the tracking and notification layer.
• Status events from carriers are ingested by parcelLab and mapped to standardized milestones; mapped events are correlated back to commercetools order references.
• Delta-based updates send only changed fields (for example, tracking number, carrier, status, ETA), reducing duplicate payloads and retries.
• Identifiers (order number, shipment ID, parcel ID) are consistently mapped to support multi-parcel orders and partial shipments.
• Error handling captures API responses, logs failed syncs with correlation IDs, and applies retry rules for transient transport errors.

Why choose scandiweb to handle Commercetools integration for you?
How does a Commercetools parcelLab integration send order and shipping data to parcelLab?
We map Commercetools order, fulfillment, and shipment objects to parcelLab events via APIs, then validate status transitions end to end. This keeps carrier, OMS/WMS, and customer-facing updates in sync.
Which shipment statuses and tracking fields should a Commercetools parcelLab order tracking integration include?
Typical payloads include carrier, tracking number, shipment items, and lifecycle statuses like shipped, in transit, out for delivery, delivered, and exception. The exact mapping depends on your OMS/WMS and carrier event quality.
Can parcelLab support multi-carrier tracking when Commercetools is the commerce backend?
Yes, parcelLab is built for multi-carrier tracking, and Commercetools can feed consistent shipment identifiers across carriers. We focus on normalizing events so customers see one clear timeline.
How do you handle multi-store and localization in a Commercetools parcelLab integration setup?
We align store keys, locales, and branding rules so each market routes to the right parcelLab configuration. That includes language, region-specific carriers, and notification triggers per storefront.
