Quick Pallet Maker - API
What is an API?
An Application Programming Interface is a method for connecting a software application to other applications. In the case of the Quick Pallet Maker API, it's a way for connecting all the features within the Quick Pallet Maker app, to third-party applications such as ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), WMS (Warehouse Management System) or eCommerce software.
API Use Cases
If your software needs to calculate any of the following situations:
- the number of boxes needed for a primary package shipment,
- how many boxes fit in a pallet,
- how many pallets are needed to ship a number of boxes,
- the number of drums, boxes or pallets that fit in a container, or
- how many containers are needed for shipping a list of boxes and/or pallets,
