PPL

PPL is a service for sending and delivering parcels to individuals.

Connecting PPL to Monstock will allow you to edit the transport labels for sending your packages, and to benefit from precise real-time monitoring of the location of your packages and the status of your deliveries.

The integration between Monstock and PPL offers complete automation of the shipping process, enabling companies to optimise the management of their transport flows while ensuring reliable and fast deliveries. This connector is a real performance booster, ensuring real-time data synchronisation between the two systems.

Thanks to this direct connection, information relating to parcels created in Monstock is automatically transmitted to PPL, avoiding any manual double entry and significantly reducing the risk of errors. This automation ensures data consistency, from preparation to dispatch, while speeding up order processing.

The connector automatically generates shipping labels (PDF/ZPL) from the transmitted data. These labels, which comply with PPL requirements, are sent back to Monstock for printing. This provides users with a smooth, standardised process that complies with the carrier's standards, without any additional handling.

Each shipment is then assigned a unique tracking number, which is automatically communicated by PPL and integrated into Monstock. This real-time synchronisation ensures complete traceability of shipments, directly from the Monstock interface, without having to consult multiple platforms.

The connector also manages delivery status updates (Track & Trace). At each stage of transport — dispatch, transit, delivery or return — PPL updates the status, which is automatically synchronised in Monstock. This complete transparency on the journey of parcels enhances the responsiveness of teams and improves the quality of service offered to customers.

Finally, the connector integrates returns management, simplifying the recovery and tracking of returned parcels. Each return processed by PPL is automatically communicated to Monstock, enabling immediate stock updates and total visibility of return flows.

By centralising and automating shipment management, the Monstock ↔ PPL connector enables businesses to increase efficiency, improve process reliability and enhance customer satisfaction. It is establishing itself as a strategic tool for managing a modern, connected and agile supply chain.

The Monstock ↔ PPL connector is based on a set of automated flows that ensure smooth, two-way communication between the two systems. Each flow is triggered by a specific action and helps to guarantee consistency, reliability and speed in data exchanges throughout the shipping process.

Flow from Monstock to PPL

When a parcel is created in Monstock, all the information required for shipping — such as addresses, weight, dimensions, and mode of transport — is automatically sent to PPL. This transmission triggers the generation of a shipping label (PDF/ZPL) in the PPL system.

The generated label is then sent back to Monstock to be printed and affixed to the parcel, ensuring that the format complies with the carrier's standards.

At the same time, PPL assigns a unique tracking number to each shipment. This number is automatically sent back to Monstock and integrated into the corresponding shipping record. Users can thus track parcels in real time from the platform, without having to log in to the PPL portal.

PPL flow to Monstock

Once the parcel has been picked up, PPL automatically sends the delivery status (Track & Trace) to Monstock. This status allows you to track the various stages of transport — in progress, delivered, pending or returned. Each update is instantly synchronised, providing complete and continuous visibility of the parcel's journey.

In the event of a return, PPL transmits the relevant information to Monstock: tracking number, reason for return and date of return. This automatic communication updates stock levels and order statuses in Monstock, facilitating the management of returns and the planning of reshipments.

Automation and triggers

All data exchanges between Monstock and PPL are fully automated. Triggers include the creation of a parcel, the validation of a shipment, the generation of a label, or the receipt of a delivery status. This automation ensures consistency of information without manual intervention.

Business benefits

Thanks to this seamless integration, businesses benefit from a more efficient and connected supply chain, complete shipment traceability, and significant operational time savings. The Monstock ↔ PPL integration centralises shipment management and enhances process reliability, contributing to better control of operations and an optimised customer experience.
