Setting Up Shipping Preferences

To effectively manage your shipping operations within NetSuite, follow these steps to set up shipping preferences:

  1. Navigate to Setup > Accounting > Shipping to define your shipping charge policy.
  2. To enable automatic shipping charges for orders, check the Charge for Shipping box. If left unchecked but you still wish to charge for shipping, create a separate line item on the transaction.
  3. To differentiate handling from shipping charges, check both Charge Handling Separate from Shipping and Charge for Shipping boxes during the shipping item creation process.
  4. Select your Default Shipping Carrier and Default Shipping Method to ensure consistency across sales orders and invoices.
  5. If utilizing Pick, Pack, and Ship capabilities, identify your preferred sales order processing method.

New Shipping Feature Highlights

The Shipping Label Integration functionality allows for generating tracking numbers and shipping labels directly within NetSuite. Ensure that you register your carrier accounts (FedEx, UPS, USPS) for a seamless setup. The integration allows for real-time rate adjustments to ensure you provide the most accurate shipping costs to your customers.

Important Note: When employing the Shipping Label Integration, address fields must be filled out completely in order for labels to be generated correctly. Overrides on addresses are not permitted while using this feature.
