One Balance: UPS from ShipWorks

Click on the Manage tab and then on the Shipping Settings button.

Select One Balance from the list of available carriers. (You can also select UPS.)

Click the Add UPS button.

Important

One Balance requires that you have a Stamps.com account. If you do not currently have a Stamps.com account you will be prompted with the message found below. Please click OK and then follow the steps in our Stamps.com guide to create a Stamps.com account for use with One Balance. Then, continue to step 4.

Review the UPS Promotional Rates Agreement, the UPS Technology Agreement, and the Prohibited Goods information. Click Next.

Enter your UPS account information. All fields are required. Then, click Next.

The Labels screen allows you to specify the label format you need for the type of printer you will be using.

If prompted, select your label format, then click Next.

Click the New button to add a new address. Otherwise, click Next. The Origin Address screen allows you to enter multiple origin or ship from addresses that you can use when shipping.

Click the blue link for Defaults - UPS. The Shipment Defaults screen allows you to set the base defaults that are selected when shipping with UPS and to add additional shipping rules used to select additional defaults. Shipping Rules are outside of the scope of this article.

Select your most commonly used UPS settings in each section on the Shipping Profile screen.

If a particular option does not apply to you, feel free to skip it. Nothing is required. This screen simply allows you to set the most commonly used UPS options. Note: There are two tabs at the top of the Profile screen. The Packages tab allows you to specify package defaults such as weight and dimensions.

When you are finished with your defaults, click OK and then Next.

Specify whether or not ShipWorks should automatically print your shipping labels after processing and configure how ShipWorks handles the printing of your labels on the Printing Setup screen.

Return Labels: If you will be automatically generating return shipping labels to include in your shipments and you wish for the return labels to automatically be printed, check the box for Automatically print return shipping labels after processing.

We recommend leaving the default settings for the remainder of the options on this screen.

After clicking the Next button, you may be prompted to select the printer(s) to which you wish to print your shipping labels.

On the Processing Setup screen, you have the option of configuring an email address in ShipWorks so that you can send emails to your customers. You can also set the default Local Status for orders after you process a shipment. For now, we are going to leave the default settings and just click Next.

You will be prompted once your account was successfully added to ShipWorks. (Please note that it may take a few moments.)

Click Finish.
