Onboarding Requirements

Before configuring Aramex in techSHIP, you must gather specific credentials and verify account settings.

Information to be Provided

The following credentials and data points are mandatory to establish the connection. Ensure you have these items available before starting the setup:

Settings to be Verified

The following account configurations must be validated to prevent errors during the connection setup or the shipping process:

Aramex is configured in techSHIP as an international small parcel carrier.

Configuration Hierarchy and Guides

To establish a valid connection and start shipping, you must complete the mandatory levels in the following order:

References
BOL

techSHIP supports configuring up to four label references for Aramex. Reference 1, Reference 2, Reference 3, and Reference 4 all use the same standard techSHIP reference options.

The table below specifies the hard limits for Label References enforced by Aramex. Data exceeding these limits may be truncated on the physical label or cause manifest errors:

For a comprehensive guide on how to use label references, see:  Using order References in your labels [Step-by-Step guide].

Operational Constraints

This section details specific operational rules and limitations imposed by Aramex. These constraints are enforced by the carrier and must be considered when planning your shipping workflow:

• Only international shipments are supported.
• Only small parcel shipping is supported.
• Labels are supported in PDF and PNG formats only.
• Pickup is not supported.
