TallyPrime Ecom Express Integration - Auto Shipment Booking & Tracking
The TallyPrime-Ecom Express connector books shipments from TallyPrime sales vouchers via the Ecom Express Merchant API, generates AWB labels and manifests, tracks every consignment through delivery, and auto-posts COD collections back into Tally as receipt vouchers. Second-largest India 3PL with strong D2C reach — same shape as the Delhivery connector. Rs 2,499/month.

What this connector does
Ecom Express is India's second-largest integrated logistics platform after Delhivery. Most D2C brands running on Shopify or WooCommerce use Delhivery and Ecom Express as their primary and fallback 3PLs — Delhivery for metros, Ecom Express for tier 2-3 pin codes where their coverage is stronger. Both operate through similar Merchant APIs and both have Shopify plugins, but neither talks natively to TallyPrime — which means Tally never learns the AWB, delivery status is not visible against the invoice, COD reconciliation is manual through weekly remittance CSVs, and RTOs get discovered in the dashboard days after the fact.
This connector wires the Ecom Express Merchant API directly to the Tally dispatch queue. Every sales voucher in TallyPrime with a dispatch address is queued for booking with Ecom Express. The API call carries the buyer address, weight from the item master, dimensions if available, service tier (Standard / Rocket / Air), and payment mode. The AWB comes back with the label PDF and estimated delivery date and is written into the voucher narration. Manifests generate in bulk with pickup slot batching so ops teams can hand a single manifest sheet to the pickup rep instead of AWB-by-AWB.
Every consignment is tracked through the Ecom Express status webhook — pickup, in-transit, out-for-delivery, delivered, RTO — and every state change writes a new narration line onto the Tally voucher. When Ecom Express remits COD collections weekly, each remittance line is matched against the corresponding AWB and posted as a Receipt Voucher against the original Sales Invoice. Remittance fees (COD handling charges, GST on charges) are booked to a separate ledger so P&L visibility on COD net margin stays clean.
RTOs are the highest-friction event in D2C logistics. When a shipment RTOs, the connector generates an automatic credit note in Tally with stock restored to the correct godown — no manual entry, no forgotten invoices lingering in the receivables ageing report. If the RTO reverses on a re-attempt (buyer accepts on the second try), the credit note is auto-reversed and the Sales Invoice restored to active. Every reversal is logged for audit.
Multi-warehouse pickup is supported natively — each Tally godown maps to an Ecom Express pickup location. Service tier selection can be global, per warehouse, or per voucher based on rules (e.g. "Rocket for metros, Standard for everything else"). Route-based routing is a common pattern for D2C brands running both connectors: Ecom Express takes the tier 2-3 pin codes, Delhivery takes the metros, and the fallback logic runs automatically when one has capacity constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Many D2C brands use Delhivery as their primary 3PL with Ecom Express as backup on specific routes. Both connectors run in parallel — you can configure per-order rules (e.g. "Ecom Express for tier 2 pin codes, Delhivery for metros"), or fall back to Ecom Express automatically when Delhivery has capacity constraints on a route.
Yes. Standard (default), Rocket (24-hour metro), and Air (out-of-region) are all supported. Service tier can be set globally, per warehouse, or per voucher based on rules configured during setup.
Ecom Express remits COD collections weekly. Each remittance line is matched against the corresponding AWB and posted as a receipt voucher against the original Sales Invoice in Tally. Remittance fees are booked to a separate ledger for clean P&L visibility.
The connector supports the Ecom Express RTO reversal flow. If the buyer accepts delivery on a re-attempt after an initial RTO status, the credit note is automatically reversed and the original Sales Invoice is restored to active. Every reversal is written to the audit log.
