Add Location

You can add as many locations as are allowed by your Parcel license. Each location is a "Ship From" ID or 'distribution center' (DC). You select a DC or "Ship From" ID when you ship a package in the Parcel shipping application.
After you add locations, you can add carriers (see the section Carrier Configuration > How To Add a Carrier) to each of the locations. You can add more than one instance of the same carrier to each location.
Note: You can also use the Add Location screen to configure a default Alternate Return Address and Alternate Remittance Address for the following carriers that support this function:

• FedEx

• FedEx Ground® Economy

• UPS (all origins)

See the section To specify an Alternate Return Address and/or Alternate Remittance Address .

Supported carriers for US, Canada, United Kingdom (UK), Europe

The following table lists the supported carriers for the US, Canada, the UK, and Europe. (Carrier names are given as they appear in the Web Admin).
Note: When you are adding a carrier to a location, only the carriers supported for a given country appear in the drop-down list of carriers for the country specified in the Location address.

Delete Location

You can delete any of the locations that you have configured in Parcel. You must be logged in as Administrator or Enterprise Administrator to delete a location
To Delete a Location

1. From the System menu, select Settings > Locations.

2. Under Global Settings in the Configuration tree on the left-hand pane, select Delete Location.
   The Delete Location screen is displayed in the right-hand pane.

3. From the Location drop-down list, select the location that you want to delete.

4. Click DELETE at the lower right of the screen or click CANCEL to cancel out of the process.

Corporate DSN

Best practices for Corporate Address files

Excel can read CSV files and can thus serve as a DSN with CSV files for the Corporate Address book. However, this approach is not recommended due to the following limitation on Excel functionality.
When importing a CSV file, Excel automatically assumes that every field containing only numbers is numeric and makes a default conversion to a numeric data Enter. Thus, if you import a CSV file with phone, extension, or fax numbers into Excel, Excel recognizes these strings as numbers and converts them to numeric. (This is because CSV files are basically text files and therefore cannot specify data Enter.) If you then use this Excel file as your Corporate Address DSN, the Corporate Address Book displays these numbers in Excel form.
For example:

Best practices for using Excel and CSV files as DSNs are as follows:

• For an Excel DSN, use native Excel files and not CSV/Text files imported into Excel. When using native Excel files, design the spreadsheet to indicate which columns to treat as alphanumeric strings (for example, phone and fax numbers) and which columns to treat as numeric. When customizing the DSN strings ( see the section Specifying DSNs and submitting custom queries) at the top of this screen, specify the Excel driver.

• For a CSV/Text DSN, when customizing the DSN strings ( see the section Specifying DSNs and submitting custom queries) at the top of this screen, specify the TEXT driver not the Excel driver.
