Enabling Target+ Buy Shipping

Follow these four steps to purchase labels through Target:

  1. Get Approval
  2. Map Warehouse Codes
  3. Add a Shipping Account
  4. Add the Shipping Account to your Target Store

Getting Approval

Before you can create shipments with Target+ Buy Shipping, you must first complete Target’s orientation process. This ensures your ship nodes are properly configured, preferred carriers are designated, and all required account details are in place for activation.

To get started, contact Plus.Services@Target.com and request to be enabled for Target+ Buy Shipping.

Target will ask which services you intend to integrate with Goflow. Select Full Service - Quotes & Labels. Be sure to provide your UPS and FedEx account numbers, as Target will bill these accounts for any non-transportation charges.

Mapping Warehouse Codes

When you purchase a label, Goflow tells Target the warehouse location where the shipment originates. To accomplish this, map each Target ship node to its corresponding warehouse in Goflow. Follow these steps:

  1. In the left sidebar, go to Directory › Stores, and open your Target Plus store.
  2. On the Shipment Warehouses card, click the pencil icon to Edit.
  3. Click the plus (+) icon to add a new warehouse mapping.
  4. For each Target warehouse code, select the corresponding Goflow warehouse.
  5. Click Save to apply your mappings.

If you add a new location in Target, go to your Target Plus store in Goflow and click Refresh Store Warehouse Codes link in the Store Warehouse Codes card. Then proceed to map the new Target location to the corresponding Goflow warehouse.

Adding a Shipping Account

  1. From the left sidebar, go to Directory › Shipping Carriers.
  2. Click New Carrier in the upper-right corner.
  3. Select Target+ Buy Shipping, and click Add Target+ Buy Shipping.
