Delete shipping location

Deleting a shipping location means removing it from the system completely when it is no longer required.

Deleting the shipping location could occur due to various reasons, such as:

  • Closure: if a shipping facility is closed or no longer in use, deleting it helps avoid confusion in future shipping operations.
  • Account changes: When a business relocates or decides to consolidate shipping operations to fewer locations.

In SAPIENT, you can delete the shipping location to keep the shipping database clean and manageable, preventing clutter from inactive or obsolete entries. It also improves the system performance and avoids potential confusion by ensuring only current and relevant shipping locations are available for selection or operation.

  1. In the left navigation panel, select Shipping Locations.
