Sameday

<h4>Overview</h4>
<p>This plug-in is intended to implement a new shipping method using the Sameday Courier service. As a store owner, after installing the plugin, you are able to import the list of Sameday Courier<br />
service and delivery points assigned to your account. If your customer chooses the order to be delivered with Sameday Courier, you will be able to see this in the list of commands in your store’s<br />
administration panel. You will also be able to create an AWB. You can then add a new parcel in the created AWB and show the AWB as a pdf format. If you want, you can show the AWB history or delete the AWB.</p>

SamedayCourier Shipping

Works fine


Merge pe cel puțin 5 magazine cu configurații și rulaje diferite, fără probleme. Desigur că anumite lucruri se puteau face mai bine (ex. generare awb bulk, transfer automat în platformă de awb, etc.), dar pentru ce este și cât oferă, este net superior față de competiție, iar eu am clienți care contractează serviciile lor pentru că merge, nu te rogi de el (ex. Fan), nu trebuie să plătești abonamente separate (ex. Cargus) sau să te apuci să reinventezi gestiunea din magazin pentru a emite un awb (ex. DPD).UPDATE:În ultimul an, la fiecare FEATURE adăugat, găsești 2 bug-uri sau chiar situații unde se blochează site-ul. Nu recomand.
