About Prep Parcel by AMZ PREP
From the official readme · v0.4.8Description
Connects WooCommerce directly to the AMZ Prep Parcel platform at parcel.amzprep.com and
returns live carrier rates during checkout.
- Live rates from your negotiated Parcel account
- Percentage or fixed markup on every rate
- Per-service enable and disable
- Optional transit time beside each rate
- Configurable rate caching
- Flat fallback rate when the API is unreachable
- Built-in test quote tool and health checks
- Redacted debug logging through WooCommerce Status Logs
The plugin talks to the Parcel API directly. It does not create WooCommerce API keys,
does not register webhooks, and does not store your password.
Installation
- Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/ and activate it.
- Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > AMZ Prep Parcel.
- Connect your Parcel account, set a ship-from address, and run a test quote.
- Add the method to your shipping zones.
Changelog
0.4.8
- Updated plugin display name to Prep Parcel by AMZ PREP.
0.4.7
- Tested against WordPress 7.0
- Translations are now loaded automatically by WordPress.org
- Carrier Services and the health report now refresh in place after a test quote,
instead of showing the state from before the quote ran - Discovered service ids are written to the debug log, with a note when two services
arrive under one identifier
0.4.5
- Fixed successful quotes being treated as failures: the API answers with 201 Created,
and the plugin only accepted 200 - All API calls now accept any 2xx status
- A quote that succeeds but yields no parseable rates is written to the logs in full
- Postal code field widened so a full six-character code is visible
0.4.4
- signatureRequired now uses the API’s enum (NO, YES, ADULT_SIGNATURE,
NINETEEN_PLUS_SIGNATURE) and is selectable on the Rates & Display tab - Blank optional address fields are omitted rather than sent as empty strings,
which the API rejects on minimum-length rules - Recipient name and company are backfilled for rating, since WooCommerce has
neither at the cart stage - Address fields are truncated to the documented maximums
- All mbstring calls now fall back gracefully when the extension is absent
0.4.3
- Fixed the test quote still sending the old ISO date format: it built its own payload
instead of going through the mapper, so the 0.4.2 fix never reached it - The test quote and checkout quotes now share one payload builder
- Date format retry compares against the value actually sent rather than the stored
setting, so it can no longer skip the correct format - Error notices clear when switching tabs instead of appearing on every panel
0.4.2
- Fixed scheduledShipDate: the API rejects the ISO ‘T’ separator and expects a space
- Ship date is now rendered in the store timezone, since the field maps to a Java
LocalDateTime which carries no offset - If a host rejects the date format, the plugin cycles through known formats and
remembers whichever one works - The test quote now checks the ship-from address before calling the API
