Once you install the plugin, we can proceed to the configuration.<\/p>\n

WooCommerce UK shipping configuration<\/h2>\n

First, you need to register an account at\u00a0DPD Local New Customer Enquiry. Next, you need to request an API access\u00a0at MyDPD Local. We created a detailed guide<\/a> to help you get started with DPD Local.<\/p>\n

You need an account and the API access to use the plugin, so make sure to set up the account when you want to use the service (and our plugin).<\/p>\n

Plugin configuration<\/h3>\n

You can configure the DPD plugin in the menu: WooCommerce \u2192 Settings \u2192 Shipping \u2192 DPD UK<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Creating shipments<\/h3>\n

Next, choose whether or not the plugin creates shipments automatically based on the order status:<\/p>\n

\"Create<\/p>\n

You can select an hour after which the date of shipment will be set for the next day. By default, all shipment dates will be set on the same day the shipment is created.<\/p>\n

By default, you create shipment manually in the order meta box or from bulk actions in the orders list. You can set\u00a0Automatically<\/strong> shipments creation after specific\u00a0Order status<\/strong>.
