QWhat is QuickBooks Shipping Manager?
Shipping Manager is a feature built into QuickBooks Desktop, including QuickBooks Enterprise, that lets you create shipping labels for UPS, FedEx, and USPS directly from your invoices and sales orders. Customer addresses and order details fill in automatically, and shipment info stays with the transaction in QuickBooks.
QWhich carriers does it support?
Shipping Manager works with UPS, FedEx, and USPS. You connect your own carrier accounts and choose the carrier and service level that fits each shipment — all from within QuickBooks.
QDo I need my own carrier accounts?
Yes. Shipping Manager uses your own UPS, FedEx, or USPS accounts to create labels and ship. Standard carrier shipping charges apply as they normally would — Shipping Manager just makes label creation and rate comparison fast and paperless from inside QuickBooks.
QIs Shipping Manager included with Enterprise?
Yes. Shipping Manager is built into QuickBooks Desktop, including every QuickBooks Enterprise edition, at no additional software cost. You only pay your normal carrier shipping charges.
QCan I compare shipping rates?
Yes. You can view rates across carriers and service levels before you ship, so you can choose the most cost-effective option for each package — a simple way to reduce shipping spend over time.
QCan I track shipments?
Yes. You can capture tracking numbers and follow shipment status from within QuickBooks, and the tracking details stay attached to the related invoice or sales order so your team and customers always know where an order is.
QDoes it work with sales orders and invoices?
Yes. You create labels directly from invoices and sales orders, with the ship-to address and order details filling in automatically — especially powerful alongside Advanced Inventory’s pick-pack-ship workflow for product businesses.
QIs there an extra cost for Shipping Manager?
There’s no extra software cost — it’s included with Enterprise. You simply pay your normal carrier shipping charges through your own UPS, FedEx, or USPS accounts.
