Tuffnells Courier Integration

Test Pack - Must be Completed

1 - To setup the integration contact the Tuffnells service desk. They will provide you with an FTP username and password (these are specific EDI credentials for Tuffnells FTP Server - please check you have correct values)

Once you have that you'll need to submit a test pack so they can enable the location as live.

To do this

• Create a Tuffnells account on Mintsoft - Connect -> Courier Integrations - > Tuffnells -> Add Account
• Create three orders in Mintsoft
  • 1 x Single Parcel Next Day
  • 1 x Single Parcel 3 Day
  • 1 x Multi Parcel Next Day
• Process the orders to create shipments. You'll get PDF labels back for each of the orders
• Once done then create a Manifest. This will produce an EDI file and a PDF manifest. 
• Supply the labels, EDI file(This will be FTPed to them) and PDF Manifest back to Tuffnells for them to confirm all is good
• Once they confirm the location is live and you can then start creating live shipments. 
• Please make sure you have entered address & contact details on Mintsoft for you warehouse in Warehouses > Manage Warehouses:

Manifesting

At the end of each day when the driver comes to collect the Tuffnells parcels you'll need to create a manifest. This does two things:

1. FTPs an EDI data file containing all the info about the shipments done since the last Manifest
2. Produces a PDF manifest to be handed to the driver:

Creating a Manifest

1 - Navigate to Connect > Courier Integrations > Tuffnells

Locate the account you want to create a manifest for.

Click Manifests:

2 - Then click the create manifest button:

3 - Print off the PDF file created and hand to driver
