Shipping Label Processes
In ShipBlink, you can generate labels for Orders in two ways –
-
- ⭐️ Individual Order Shipments
Recommended when —
- You want to declare customs for an International Order
- You have a Multi-parcel shipment
- Your Order volume is low (say <5 per day)
- You want to ship partial items in the Order
Caveats with Individual Order Shipments —
-
-
- You can create a Manifest(Scan Form), but they only represent a single Shipment.
- ⭐️ Batch Order Shipments (aka Batches)
-
Recommended when —
- You ship tens or hundreds of packages every day and are looking for efficient shipping ops.
- You want to generate a single Manifest(Scan Form) for multiple labels.
- You want a consolidated Document of Labels & Packing Slips.
Caveats with Batch Order Shipments
-
- You won’t be able to declare Customs for International Orders in Batches.
- If you want a Manifest, all Orders labels in the specific Batch should be created from the same Carrier (eg; if you ship SpeeDee & USPS, create two Batches ⇒ One for USPS Orders, and One for SpeeDee Orders)
Q: Reduce the Carrier Options you see in the Rate list?
- ShipBlink is a Multi-carrier shipping software by default. If you want to disable some carriers, or specific Carrier options (aka Shipping methods) – you can disable them here in ShipBlink (disable toggle the ”Show in ShipBlink“)
