Re: UPS Shipping System

We use the Offline Shipping Enhancement, have been for a couple years.  It
works quite well with UPS (and FedEx Ground, also).  If you want, you can
check out my tip website for source code at www.fft-inc.com/offship.html -
I posted a PowerPoint and source listings for this.

Good luck, and contact me if you need help.  This enhancement has been
FANTASTIC for us.  Last year we shipped 30% more parts with 33% fewer
people, and reduced clerical staffing from 4 to 2 in our shipping
department.  We could be down to 1, but we have to cover vacation and
stuff.

We are in the process of changing shipping systems, from Pfastship to UPS.

We are using the offline load for shipping and plan to do the same for UPS.

To the group, what problem(s) has anyone encountered with using UPS
Shipping
System.

We have completed initial conversations and know that we need to supply UPS
with a data file, containing all     shipping information, and then they
will give us a file with all shipped information (charges, tracking# etc ).

Thanks
