Automated ShipHero Daily Throughput Digest

Every morning, WebRun opens ShipHero, collects the previous day's orders shipped, units picked, packing errors, and carrier breakdown, then posts a concise digest to your Slack ops channel so the whole team starts the shift knowing exactly where they stand.

In short

How do I get an automatic daily throughput report from ShipHero?

WebRun opens ShipHero each morning, pulls the prior day's orders shipped, units picked, packing error count, and carrier breakdown, then posts a formatted digest to Slack before your team arrives. Managers start every shift knowing yesterday's output and where the operation stands.

  • Managers see yesterday's shipped totals before the morning shift starts
  • Error rates and carrier splits are visible without opening ShipHero manually
  • Week-over-week comparison helps spot volume trends early

Questions, answered

Does the digest go to individual workers or just managers?

It posts to a Slack channel you choose during setup, typically an ops or management channel. No individual workers are messaged directly.

Can it compare today's numbers to a target or quota?

Yes. Provide your daily ship target during setup and WebRun will include a shipped vs. target line in each digest, making the comparison instant.

What if ShipHero reports show zero orders on a holiday?

WebRun still posts the digest noting zero orders shipped, so the team has confirmation the run completed and no data was missed during a low-volume day.

Put this on autopilot.
