Worldship Batch Import

Question

I am trying to import a .csv file into WorldShip containing names, addresses, and zip codes. I have two profiles set up defining package weight, UPS service, bill transportation, package type, and reference numbers.

Can I import just name, addresses and zip codes under a specific profile to keep the other variables constant? Or do I have to add those variables to the .csv file?

Also, I want to be able to print shipping and return labels for several "batches" throughout the day, but only have a single end of day report. Will each batch be appended to the end of day report? The return shipping address will stay constant.

I have basic programming abilities and fairly good computer skills, but I want to know if I am getting in over my head.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

You could look at the shiprush SDK. It is good for that kind of thing, and does both UPS and postal shipping.

(Sorry, I don't have a ton of worldship experience, but I have done a lot of shipping...)

Answer 2

I think you can do what you are trying to do. I haven't played with Worldship a ton, but I know it is Access based, and you can gain access to all the tables, etc. But, I haven't seen anything past Worldship 8, but I DO have a relative who worked for UPS doing support for Worldship.
