V9 - UPS shipments setup

 

If you set up your UPS account to integrate with SOS Inventory, you can create shipments with UPS as your carrier. Currently, UPS shipping functionality is available only within the continental United States. 

 

Once you have completed the steps below to set up UPS Shipments in SOS Inventory, you can access UPS Shipments from the Shipments list (Operations > Fulfillment > Shipments). Refer to Working with UPS Shipments for information on creating or voiding a shipment, and printing labels or return shipment labels with SOS Inventory.
