SmartTurn Integration
Many warehouses use software provided by SmartTurn to manage their orders. If your fulfillment provider uses this software, Order Desk can connect to them through the SmartTurn integration and send your orders for fulfillment. As they fulfill your orders, the tracking numbers will be sent back into Order Desk and back through to the original shopping cart(s).

Priority Code
If your provider tells you to add a priority code, enter it here. You can override this setting on individual orders by using the smartturn_priority checkout data field. Details below.

If you need to, you can use the rule builder to set shipping methods on your orders as they're imported.

Automatically Send Imported Orders To SmartTurn
If selected, every order that is added to Order Desk will automatically be sent to SmartTurn.
