A Warehouse is a building for storing goods. Manufacturers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, transport businesses, customs, etc use warehouses. In a warehouse, they can safely and securely store products in an organized way. They can track where items are located, when they arrived, how long they have been there, and the quantity on hand.

Usually, the shipping orders are first ‘picked’ and ‘packed’ in the warehouse, then the planning begins for last-mile delivery.

In short, Warehousing is the process of storing and managing physical goods before selling and shipping further.

Now you can directly integrate with your Storfox WMS to Shipox for seamless shipping from your warehouse.

What Is “IN SORTING WAREHOUSE” Scan or Order Status?

With Shipox, you can pick up the orders/packages/goods from your customers and deliver them to your sorting warehouse just before the final dispatch for delivery(Order status – ‘In Sorting Warehouse’). This could be used for sorting orders for delivery by driver, zones, times, service types etc or just securely storing them.

📌 Creating a Warehouse is required when you want to track these order statuses “In sorting warehouse” and “In transit”.
