Getting Started with FedEx®Integration

Important:

NetSuite Ship Central is NetSuite’s standard shipping solution. For more information, see NetSuite Ship Central.

The Shipping Integration with FedEx, UPS, and USPS/Endicia is not available to new customers. It is available with limited support only for existing customers before they transition to NetSuite Ship Central.

For more information about transitioning to NetSuite Ship Central, including the self-service procedure, see Upgrading from Integrated Shipping to NetSuite Ship Central (SuiteAnswers article 1015202).

FedEx Integration enables you to connect your NetSuite account directly to your FedEx account.

When you fulfill orders with FedEx integrated shipping, your FedEx account is charged for the shipment and the tracking number is saved with the item fulfillment.
