Shipping Ozmobile, Frank, Reebelo or Ebay Orders with


Shipstation
ShipStation is the website used to ship OzClearance (ebay), Frank Mobile, reebelo and
OzMobiles orders. Generating packing slips and labels, as well as manifesting orders is all
done via ShipStation. To log in to Shipstation use the login information:

Creating Batches
The first step is creating a batch for each order type: OzClearance, Frank, OzMobiles or
reebelo. Ensure you are in the Orders tab in the black ribbon along the top. In Awaiting
Shipment, the orders are grouped into orders from Frank, OzClearance and OzMobiles.
(Reebelo, pickups and e-parcel orders are included in the “OZMOBILES” tab, to create a
batch for reebelo, e-parcel or to print and cancel a pick up order click on Ozmobiles orders

The new batch will appear at the top of the list of Open Batches along the left of the screen.
To name the batch, select the batch you just created to go into it. Select the grey box next to
Label Batch: and title the batch using these guidelines:

- OzClearance batches: OC *Date* for example: OC 23/7

ADDITIONAL NOTES

- On Mondays, due to the high number of orders to process it is


recommendable that only one person of the team is in charge of creating
batches, printing packing slips, picking and scanning the orders and printing
the labels. The rest of the shipping team would be only cleaning the phones.
- When scanning Frank and ebay orders on airtable those will be showing as
incorrect, so it is necessary to double check if the device actually matches the
order
- It is important to check every day if there are enough boxes and satchels for
the next day.
