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

3. 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 outlined in this article to create a Stamps.com account for use with One Balance. Then, continue to step 4.

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

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

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

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

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

Note: For detailed information on how to add additional origin addresses, see this article.

8. 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. However, let's talk about setting your base defaults for UPS.

If you wish to set base defaults for UPS, continue with step 8a. Otherwise, just to step 9.

8a. Click the blue link for Defaults - UPS.

8b. On the Shipping Profile screen, select your most commonly used UPS settings in each section. If a particular option does not apply to you, you can 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 specific package defaults such as weight and dimensions.

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

9. The Printing Setup screen allows you to specify whether or not ShipWorks should automatically print your shipping labels after processing and to configure how ShipWorks handles the printing of your labels.

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.

10. 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.

Email - This is optional. However, if you wish to configure an email account with ShipWorks, follow the steps in this article.

Local Status - We recommend the default settings.

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

Click Finish.

You will be returned to the One Balance screen where you can view your available balance, add funds to your account, or configure automatic funding of your account.

When processing a shipment, be sure to select UPS from ShipWorks as your UPS account so that you can enjoy all of the benefits available to you with One Balance.

You may also wish to configure ShipWorks so that your UPS from ShipWorks account is automatically selected for you.
