An idea to save you a lot of manual processing time and reduce human error is to update your custom integration. If the logistics partner has an API, you can write your own integration to check the status of your orders every hour and update them in WooCommerce.

This will take some time to build but will save you countless hours throughout the year. And again, this is one of the main advantages of WooCommerce. Everything is open and customizable; you can build all of the tools you need.

We looked at several low-tech as well as high-tech solutions to sending and receiving data from fulfillment partners.
