UPS Account for Shipping Labels preferences

RB9 only

Enter UPS account information into RB9 to print labels and track shipments. You can have multiple UPS accounts, then select which one you want to use when printing labels.

TIP: UPS accounts can also mean label templates

If you have multiple shipping label setups that you use regularly, instead of updating the default each time you ship something that needs a different label setup, create accounts/templates for each setup instead. Accounts can share the same credentials, so you can have multiple templates with the same credentials but different shipping label specifications saved as accounts.
