Q. How can I receive updates via e-mail for UPS CampusShip® enhancements?
A.
To receive updates all you need to do is register for e-mail in CampusShip. After logging in, click on the UPS logo in the upper left corner. This will take you to the ups.com homepage. Scroll to the bottom of the page and select Subscribe to E-mail. Complete the form and choose which types of communication you would like to receive. You can even view samples, by selecting View Examples. When you’re finished, select Update.

Q. I send a lot of international shipments, and I'd like to upload a list of the products I ship frequently to use when I create international export documents. Will CampusShip let me do that?
A.
Yes! All UPS shipping systems allow you to upload your company's product list to help create international forms. After you log in, go to the Shipping tab and, under Upload a Product List File, browse to the location of the file. You can import a .csv or .xml file. Follow the Product List Upload instructions, using the proper file format template to create your product list file. When you create a shipment, simply select products from your uploaded list to complete the commercial invoice.

Q. Whenever I print a shipping label in CampusShip, I also get a separate page of instructions. I don’t need them. Can I stop printing instructions with every label?
A.
Yes! You can choose what information to print with your shipping labels. Log in and select the Shipping Preferences link. Scroll down to Printing Preferences. Opt out of printed instructions by deselecting the box next to Print label instructions. You can also select check boxes for other preferences, such as Print Receipt or to use another printer.
