Integrated Carrier Addon Plex Package
Fuuz accelerator: Plex ERP add-on for integrated carrier shipping — browser extension overlay
Version: 0.0.1 Spec Version: 2.0.0
Overview
This package extends the Integrated Carrier suite with Plex ERP-specific integration features. It installs the Load Plex Integrated Shipper flow (which populates carrier account and shipper data from Plex into Fuuz), an Integrated Carrier Shipment (Extension) screen that adds Plex-specific fields and actions to the base shipment workflow, and an ExternalApplicationConfiguration record that enables the Fuuz Browser Extension to interact with the shipping screen from within the Plex ERP web interface.
This addon is optional — install it only in environments where Plex ERP is the primary business system and operators initiate shipments from within Plex.

Installed Components
Load Plex Integrated Shipper (Integration flow)
Syncs Plex shipper (vendor/customer) configuration into Fuuz IntegratedCarrierAccount records:
- Queries Plex for configured shipping accounts and carrier credentials
- Maps Plex carrier account data to Fuuz IntegratedCarrierAccount fields
- Creates or updates carrier account records with Plex-sourced credentials
- Enables Plex-managed carrier accounts to be used in Fuuz shipment flows without manual re-entry
Integrated Carrier Shipment (Extension) Screen
An extended version of the base Integrated Carrier Shipment screen with Plex-specific additions:
- Plex Container / Shipment context — Auto-populates shipment fields from Plex Container or Sales Order context when opened from Plex via the browser extension
- Plex-linked recipient — Auto-fills ship-to address from Plex Customer record
- Post-label callback — After label generation, posts the tracking number and carrier details back to the Plex Sales Order or Container record via Plex API
- Plex shipment reference — Captures Plex shipment/container ID in IntegratedCarrierRequest.externalId for cross-system reconciliation
ExternalApplicationConfiguration: mfgxBrowserExtensionIntegratedCarrierShipping
Configures the Fuuz Browser Extension to recognize Plex ERP shipment pages and inject the Integrated Carrier Shipment (Extension) screen as an overlay. Enables operators to generate carrier labels without leaving Plex.
Install Process
Preinstall (4 steps): Verifies that the Load Plex Integrated Shipper flow, the extension screen (by ID and version ID), and the ExternalApplicationConfiguration record don't already exist before installing.
Install (6 steps): Creates flow header + version, creates screen header + version, creates ExternalApplicationConfiguration record, deploys all.
Postinstall (1 step): Registers the extension configuration with the Fuuz platform to activate browser extension recognition.
Installation
- Install the full Integrated Carrier core suite:
package-integrated-carrier-core-schema-accelerator,package-integrated-carrier-core-flows-accelerator,package-integrated-carrier-core-screens-accelerator - Install at least one carrier package (

Built on the Fuuz Industrial Operations Platform
Before you install
A Jump Start, Not A Finished Answer
An accelerator is a pre-built, configurable starting point that addresses the bulk of the common challenges in its domain. It is not intended to solve every possible variation off the shelf — requirements that fall outside it are expected and normal for the model, not a shortcoming of this one.
Standard
Delivered and working as-is. No configuration needed.
Configurable
A base capability you adapt with the platform's own no-code and low-code tools — screen builder, transforms, workflow rules, flow parameters — without professional services.
Custom development
Feasible on the platform but outside this accelerator's current scope. A scoped change through Fuuz or a certified partner.
Once installed, it is yours
Installation forks the flows, models and screens into your environment as your own copies. Later versions published against this accelerator do not propagate to you automatically — picking up a change means deliberately re-applying it.
