Navigate o the Contacts app.


Adding a UPS Shipping Account to a Contact

Things will bring you to a list of all existing contacts. You can create a new contact by clicking NEW, or modify an existing contact by selecting the record.




If you've selected an existing record, under the Sales & Purchase tab, find the Shipping Accounts section and click Add a line.


This brings up the Create Shipping Accounts modal window where you'll complete the following fields:

Partner: Select or create the partner name associated with this account. 

Description: Add reference information, if needed.

Account Num.: This field is required to be the UPS standard 6 digits.

Carrier: Select UPS from the dropdown menu. 

UPS Account Zip: When UPS is selected as the carrier, this field will display. Enter your 5-digit zip code.

Notes: If you'd like to add any notes about this account, you can do so here.


When you're done, click SAVE & CLOSE, or SAVE & NEW button if there is an additional Shipping Account you'd like to create.

Technical

This module adds UPS to the delivery type selection dropdown on the Partner Shipping Account model. Additionally, it adds a new required field, `ups_zip`, as well as validation of entered UPS account number to ensure it is the correct length.
