Courier
A carrier collects from you and delivers. You book the consignment and print the label. Their tracking is the record after it leaves.
Best when
- You do not run the truck that does the drop
- The useful group is everything for that carrier before the cutoff
- The carrier scan is enough proof that it left
A warehouse that looks like this
A parcel desk before the afternoon collection. Each order for that service gets a label. The carrier scans the manifest and the tracking number is the handover.
