Establishing a partnership in the Shipment Manager UI

Find the company you want to use and click the Send Request button on the right-hand side. The carrier's business partnership card will slide out from the left of the screen showing the current partnership status, permissions, and party identifiers.
Party Identifiers can be added and used to refer to the company being added as the business partner.

Once you’ve finished editing, click Send to save the party identifier information and send the request to the company you want to add as a business partner.
