Walmart Load Email Automation

Last updated: March 27, 2026

What is Walmart Load Email Automation?

Walmart Load Email Automation allows you to automatically create loads and populate shipment details in RetailReady by simply forwarding Walmart’s Load Confirmation emails. All within minutes, with no manual data entry required

Walmart sends load confirmation emails with an Excel attachment that includes:

  • Purchase Orders (POs)

  • Expected load groupings

  • Shipment details

Instead of manually entering this information, RetailReady will:

  • Create the Load

  • Assign all associated orders

  • Populate Transportation Information

How To Use Walmart Load Email Automation

  1. Open the Walmart Load Confirmation email.

  2. Click 'Forward'.

  3. Send the email (with the Excel attachment included) to: routing@orderupdate.retailreadyai.com

  4. Ensure you are sending from the same email address linked to your RetailReady account.

Important Notes:

  • The POs in the email must already be in RetailReady

FAQs:

Why didn’t my load get created?

Your load may not have been created if the email was not sent from your verified RetailReady email address, the Excel attachment was not included, or the POs do not already exist in RetailReady.

Can I edit shipment details after the load is created?

Yes, you can use 'Transportation Information' on the Loads page to update all orders, or use 'Enter Transportation Information' on the Orders page to update a single order.
