Installing the "Shipping Manager" Extension and Setting It Up for the First Time
Last updated: November 11, 2026
When you sell online and ship with couriers, following each order is split between "Edara", the courier's website and the warehouse, so it's hard to know where every order is. The "Shipping Manager" extension brings this journey into one place: it receives sales orders from "Edara" directly and follows them until they reach the customer, from picking and packing in the warehouse, to handing them over to the courier or your own driver, then tracking the status of every shipment.
You sign in to the extension with the same "Edara" account, with no new password. Once you connect the courier you work with, choose how orders are fulfilled, and add your warehouse team, you're ready to receive your orders.
Follow the Steps
- Go to "System".
- Open the "Extensions Store" page.
- Click on "Shipping Manager".
- Click on "Sign in".
- Enter your "Edara" account email and password.
- Choose the organization you want to work on.
After you choose the organization, the "Orders" page opens with the sales orders coming from "Edara".
Note: If your "Edara" account is linked to more than one organization, you choose the organization when you sign in, and you can switch between them later from your name at the top of the page, then "Switch organization".
The "Shipping Manager" Pages
You move between the "Shipping Manager" pages from the side menu:
- Orders: the sales orders coming from "Edara", with the picking status of each order.
- Shipments: every shipment once it's created, with its courier, tracking number and status.
- Pick Waves: the warehouse board, where each wave moves from one stage to the next until handover.
- Integrations: connecting the "Bosta" and "Aramex" couriers.
- Analytics: shipping figures, such as the number of shipments and the delivery rate.
- Settings: how orders are fulfilled, pickers and logs.
From your name at the top of the page, you can change the language, switch organization or sign out. From the bottom of the side menu, you can switch to dark mode.
First-Time Setup
Before you start picking orders, set up "Shipping Manager" in this order:
- Connect the courier you work with from the "Integrations" page. (Article: Integrating with the Couriers "Bosta" and "Aramex")
- Choose the fulfillment flow in the "Settings" page: "Flow A — Shipment first", where you create the shipment before picking the order, or "Flow B — Wave first", where you pick the order and then create the shipment. (Article: Configuring Order Fulfillment Settings in "Shipping Manager")
- Add the pickers who will work on the orders. (Article: Adding Pickers in "Shipping Manager")
- Start from the "Orders" page and choose the orders you want to pick.
Important Things to Know
- You sign in to "Shipping Manager" with the same "Edara" account, and you only see the organizations linked to that account.
- The "Integrations" page is for admins only, so it's faded for other users next to "Admins only".
- Orders in "Shipping Manager" are view only. You edit them in "Edara" itself; click "Refresh" on the "Orders" page to see the latest changes.
- You can only switch between "Flow A" and "Flow B" when there are no open waves.
- The language and dark mode are saved in the browser you use, so they stay as you chose them next time.
Try It Yourself
Sample data — it doesn't affect any real data. Click "Sign in" and choose an organization, then move between the pages from the side menu, click your name to change the language or switch organization, and try choosing a fulfillment flow in "Settings".
