How To Set A User In Test Mode

Setting a user in Test Mode enables a user to access the MachShip's sand-boxed testing environment. This will access live quoting but will not push out any data to transport providers. This is useful when testing out integrations or training team members. 

How to Set a User in Test Mode

If you are unable to see the User, MachShip has provided two ways to search for them:

  1. Company filter - Once you start typing a company's name, MachShip will present a list of options. Select the relevant option from this list. 
  2. General Search - When entering any keywords in this section, MachShip will filter through the list of users and bring up ones that have those keywords.

Click on the Cog drop-down to view options. Scroll down and select Edit User.
