Benefits of the Dachser x Shippingbo connector
Set up Dachser within a secure framework before going live
The connection is configured and tested upfront to validate correct operation before operational use. You can launch with greater confidence.
Manage your Dachser labels and documents from the same tool
Shipping labels and the end-of-day shipping order are generated in Shippingbo. Your teams work more smoothly and avoid switching between several environments.
Use your Dachser services within a simpler, clearer framework
Targospeed, Tragoflex, Targofix or Targo on site are configured according to your contract and organisation. Your teams work within a clear framework that is easier to apply day to day.
Maintain better visibility over pallet and multi-parcel workflows
Shippingbo centralises carrier execution within a single environment. Logistics, support and operations teams can follow shipment progress more easily.
What is synchronised between Dachser and Shippingbo
Synchronization is automatic. Some behaviors depend on order status and enabled options

The limitations of Dachser without Shippingbo
Without Shippingbo
- Labels and documents: Fragmented processing, manual validations, back-and-forth
- Day-to-day execution: Information spread across several tools
- Dachser service management: Configuration that is difficult to maintain
- End of day: Shipping order and manifest managed separately
- Multi-parcel / pallet workflows: More frequent manual checks
- Scaling: More friction as activity accelerates
With Shippingbo
- Less back-and-forth at dispatch
- Smoother day-to-day execution
- Services that are easier to manage
- Simpler close-out management
- Workflows that are easier to make reliable
- More stable execution as volumes increase
Advanced Dachser cases: validate before activation
Some situations depend on the contract, identification method, enabled services or how your workflows are organised. They are defined before going live.
GS1 identification
When labels need to use a clear and unambiguous identification system, the coding method becomes a key part of the project. Shippingbo uses a customer GS1 prefix to guarantee barcode uniqueness on labels and secure the setup before launch.
Multiple Dachser services
If you use several Dachser services, each workflow may have its own rules, parameters and checkpoints. Shippingbo lets you configure each service separately, then test it before activation to prevent discrepancies in production.
International
As soon as your shipments extend beyond the domestic market, certain parameters become essential to execute the workflow correctly. Shippingbo helps structure these shipments using the required information, such as a default Incoterm and, depending on your use case, Shippingbo's simplified CN23.
Volumes, pallets, heavy products
When your workflows involve pallets, batches or heavy products, carrier execution requires a more precise framework than a standard shipment. Shippingbo helps structure this scope before activation to ensure the connector matches your operational organisation.
