See how it works

Overview

byrd is a European e-commerce fulfillment network with warehouses across the EU and UK. Fulfil's native integration sends customer shipments to byrd, imports tracking numbers and packages as byrd fulfills each order, sends supplier shipments to byrd as inbound deliveries, and imports full inventory snapshots from byrd's warehouse. Fulfil connects to byrd over its API using an account username and password, and maps a single Fulfil warehouse to the byrd warehouse and account that fulfills from it.

Setup Instructions

Step 1: Create a byrd Warehouse in Fulfil

Navigate to Inventory & Stock > Locations
Create a warehouse with Warehouse Type set to 3PL and 3PL Source set to byrd

Step 2: Connect to byrd

You'll need the following from byrd:

Username and Password for your byrd account
byrd Warehouse ID: the warehouse identifier byrd assigned to your account
byrd Account ID: used to attribute inventory snapshot exports to the right warehouse
Navigate to Settings > Integrations and click Setup New Integration
Select byrd, name the integration, and click Next
Enter your byrd Username and Password, then click Connect
Select the Fulfil Warehouse you created, enter the byrd Warehouse ID and byrd Account ID, and click Save

Step 3: Enable Schedulers

On the warehouse location page, add schedules for each action you want to automate:

Send customer shipments: sends assigned shipments to byrd (cancellations for already-sent shipments go out on the next run)
Get customer shipment advices: imports tracking numbers and packages, marking shipments Done
Send supplier shipments: exports draft supplier shipments to byrd as deliveries (ASNs)
Get inventory receipts: marks supplier shipments received once byrd confirms

Select an interval for each schedule and save.

Step 4: Sync Products

byrd matches products by SKU, so sync products before sending shipments that contain them:

Navigate to Products > Variants
Select the products and use the Send to 3PL action
Select your byrd integration and click Send

How It Works

Outbound Shipments

Orders imported from your channels create customer shipments. The scheduler sends assigned shipments to byrd with a preferred carrier and service if one is set; if none is set, byrd rate shops and picks the carrier itself. byrd picks, packs, and ships, splitting into multiple packages when needed, and Fulfil imports the tracking numbers, package details, and the lot number shipped for lot-controlled products. Cancelling a shipment in Fulfil sends a cancellation to byrd on the next run. byrd cancels the entire shipment, and rejects the request if it has already started releasing for picking.

Inbound Shipments

Supplier shipments send to byrd as deliveries (ASNs), including the inbound carrier and tracking number when available. A planned delivery date is required, and byrd uses it to open a receiving window. As goods arrive, byrd counts good and damaged units separately; Fulfil marks the shipment Done on a full receipt, and starts a new supplier shipment for the shortfall on a partial receipt.

Inventory Snapshots

byrd reports inventory as a full warehouse export rather than incremental adjustments. Importing a snapshot builds a stock count in Fulfil, one line per SKU, with lot numbers and expiry dates for lot-tracked products. A blank count for a SKU is left out of the import rather than treated as zero, and an export with no rows for your warehouse fails on purpose rather than zeroing out inventory.

Carrier Mapping

byrd returns carrier information on shipping advices and Fulfil maps byrd's carrier codes to Fulfil carrier identifiers (for example dhl_de → dhl_germany, royalmail_gb → royal_mail). To set a preferred carrier, create a Carrier in Fulfil with Carrier Cost Method set to 3PL and add carrier services whose code matches one of byrd's identifiers.

FAQ

Questions? Answers.

How do I set up byrd fulfillment in Fulfil?

To set up byrd in Fulfil, navigate to Inventory & Stock → Locations, create a new warehouse with Type set to 3PL, and configure your byrd credentials. The setup typically takes 45 minutes.

Can I use byrd for both Shopify and Amazon orders?

Yes, Fulfil's ERP automatically imports orders from Shopify, Amazon, and other channels. You can route all these orders to byrd for fulfillment, and tracking information syncs back to each sales channel automatically.

How does inventory sync work with byrd?

Inventory levels automatically sync between byrd and Fulfil. When products are received at byrd, stock levels update in Fulfil. When orders are fulfilled, inventory decreases automatically. This ensures accurate stock counts across all your sales channels.

Can I send supplier shipments to byrd for receiving?

Yes, you can send purchase orders and supplier shipments directly to byrd for receiving. Fulfil exports the shipment details to byrd, and once they receive and inspect the products, the shipment is automatically marked as received in Fulfil with updated inventory levels.

Does tracking information sync automatically?

Yes, when byrd fulfills an order, tracking numbers automatically sync to Fulfil and push back to Shopify, Amazon, and other connected sales channels, triggering automated customer notification emails.

Can I route orders automatically to byrd?

Yes, Fulfil's automation rules allow you to automatically route specific orders to byrd based on product type, destination, inventory availability, or custom criteria. This eliminates manual warehouse assignment and ensures orders flow to the right fulfillment center automatically.

How are returns handled with byrd?

Returns can be sent directly to byrd for inspection and restocking. Once byrd receives and inspects returned products, inventory automatically updates in Fulfil and syncs back to your sales channels, making products available for sale again.

Can I manage multiple byrd warehouse locations?

Yes, Fulfil supports multiple byrd warehouse locations with unified visibility. You can view inventory across all byrd facilities, route orders to the optimal location based on proximity or stock availability, and track fulfillment status across all locations from a single dashboard.

How does order batching work with byrd?

Fulfil can batch multiple orders together before sending them to byrd based on your configured sync schedule. This reduces API calls and streamlines fulfillment operations. You can adjust the batch frequency to match your fulfillment volume, from every 5 minutes for high-volume operations to hourly for lower volumes.

Can I split orders between my own warehouse and byrd?

Yes, Fulfil intelligently splits orders when inventory is distributed across multiple warehouses. If some items are at byrd and others in your own warehouse, Fulfil creates separate shipments for each location, ensuring customers receive all their items while optimizing fulfillment from the most appropriate facility.
