Set 3rd party Fedex account for bulk imports

0
Completed

We sell on various marketplaces that send us a csv - and we need to ship using the marketplace's 3rd party fedex account. We import the csv with hundreds of orders...

We currently have to copy/paste the 3rd party account and billing zip PER ORDER -- manually.

HOW ABOUT automating this?

  1. Make a rule to set 3rd party billing for all orders in a batch?
  2. OR EVEN BETTER: Automate the process -- how about a shipping rule to apply 3rd party billing if an order meets a specific test?

Macros and auto-type only get you so far. This can and should be done at the database.

Please?

Thanks!

Good news!
On a UPS or FedEx batch of shipments, you can specify a third-party account for billing and it will be applied to all shipments within that batch, which will really help our customers who make heavy use of third-party accounts. You will also still have the ability to override that billing selection on any single shipment within the batch.

Although this isnt the exact feature you have request, we hope this helps!

Hi Morgan,

This is a great idea. I like the idea of a rule but I also think the application of saving a 3rd party's billing information to a saved selection could be great, too. I have passed along this feedback.

Morgan,

I realize this may not be what you are asking for but it should help.

Third Party UPS and FedEx accounts can now be saved and then re-used on the Ready to Ship screen. There is a new knowledge base article:

Even more great news! We now have a Shipping Rule Action - set third-party billing account for UPS and FedEx shipments. The selection will be used if a UPS or FedEx carrier selection was also assigned and works on both individual shipments and on shipments that are within a batch.
