United Parcel Service (UPS)

Account Number and Services

When you add a new UPS carrier account, the page to enter the UPS account number appears. On this page, you also select the UPS services with which you will ship packages from this location.

To configure the UPS account number and services, complete these steps...

  1. In the Account Number field, type the UPS account number for this location.
    Caution: This field allows alphanumeric characters. However, you must use all uppercase characters for the check-digit algorithm to generate correct check digits. (This algorithm converts letters in the account number to numbers in such a way that upper- and lower-case letters produce different values for the same letter.)

  2. In Carrier Code, type a name for the carrier as you want it to appear in this Configuration Tool and in Parcel. For example, if you are setting up more than one UPS account for this location, you might want to type UPS-2 if this is the second UPS account for this location.

  3. In the Services section, select the services that you will use to ship UPS packages from this location by moving them from the left-hand column to the right-hand column. To select all of the services at once, click ADD ALL.
    You can also use the Move Up and Move Down to change the order of the services in the list.

  1. Compare the actual weight to the dimensional weight and use the greater of the two as the billable weight.

  2. Compare the billable weight to the Large Package minimum billable weight (90 lbs) and use the greater of the two as the final billable weight.

Note on Setting up UPS Batch Tracking

You can set up UPS batch tracking with Quantum View® using the Parcel Scheduler. For information on setting up a scheduled UPS batch tracking task, see the following Help topics: UPS - U.S Origin > UPS - Quantum View® Tracking and Scheduling Batch Tracking.

EOD Grouping for UPS Shipments

Enabling EOD grouping allows shipments that can be grouped but do not qualify for HWT to be grouped into single shipments in the PLD.
Normally, consolidation first groups like shipments. Parcel then attempts to rate each consolidation group as a single HWT shipment. If the grouped shipment qualifies as an HWT shipment, then all the packages from the grouped shipments are moved into one master shipment. When this occurs, only a single shipment is displayed in the PLD that contains all the packages from all the shipments in the group. If, however, the group does not qualify for HWT, the shipments remain as multiple shipments with their associated packages that are uploaded in the PLD.
With EOD Grouping is enabled, as long as the grouping is a legitimate consolidation regardless of whether or not the grouped shipment qualifies for HWT, all the packages for the shipments within the group are placed in a single master shipment and displayed in the PLD as a single shipment.

Data Import

The UPS Data Import screen enables you to import files for the following functionality in Parcel:

  • Worldwide Validation

  • Billable Weight Determination

  • Peak/Demand Surcharge

The following sections describe these functions and how to import the files to support them.

WorldWide Validation Import

UPS provides a monthly distribution called "WorldWide Distribution Validation" in the form of a Zip file containing a set of CSV validation files for accessorials, billing, and services. Parcel enables you to import these files into your Parcel system using the WW Validation Import screen.

To import UPS WorldWide Validation files...

  1. Extract the files from the UPS WorldWide Validation Zip file into a directory on your Parcel server.
    Caution: The directory to which you unzip the WorldWide Validation files must be on the same computer as the Parcel server.

  2. In the Parcel Web Admin tool, select a UPS carrier, and then select the WW Validation Import screen.

  3. In the Import Date box, type the World Wide Validation Effective Date in YYYYMMDD format; for example: July 9, 2010, is rendered as "20100709" (without quotation marks). This is mandatory field for World Wide Validation import.

  4. In the World Wide Validation Data Directory box, enter the full (absolute) path to the folder to which you extracted the WorldWide validation Zip file; for example: C:\Program Files\Kewill\Flagship\wvdata\

  5. To retain WorldWide validation data that you have previously imported, select (check) the check box labeled Keep previous World Wide Validation Data.
    Caution: If you leave this check box unselected (the default), previous WorldWide validation data is automatically purged when you download the new data. Additionally, if you specify a future effective date, you need to select this option to retain a copy of your previously imported WorldWide Validation Data if you wish to have it available until the effective date of the new data.
    Note: Selecting this option retains one copy of the most recent WorldWide validation data that you imported.

  6. Click SAVE to save your settings.
    Note: When you specify the location for the UPS WorldWide Validation files under one UPS carrier, Parcel uses these files globally to validate accessorials, billing, and services for all UPS carriers.

Billable Weight Determination Import

Parcel performs a Minimum Billable Weight calculation for international multi-piece shipments. If an account or destination country is not exempt from package-level billable weight rules, billable weight is determined using package-level data. If the destination status is exempt, shipment-level billable weight is used. Shipment billable weight is based on shipment-level data and does not require determining the billable weight for each package in the shipment.

When package billable weight is used, the following process is carried out. First the Package Billable Weight is determined for each package in the shipment. This weight is compared to the minimum billable weight for a package as defined by UPS, and the greater of the two values is taken as the package billable weight. This process is repeated for each package in the shipment and the sum of the package billable weights determined by this method is the shipment billable weight.

For a Shipper Account or Third Party Account, use UPS Online Tool to determine whether the account has exempt status. UPS provides a file listing which countries are exempt and which countries are not. This is the file that you need to import using this screen.

*To import the UPS Billable Weight data file:*

  1. In the Billable Weight Determination Data Directory box, enter the full (absolute) path to the folder to which you extracted the UPS file; for example: C:\Program Files\Kewill\Flagship\bwdata{color}

  2. Click SAVE to save your settings.

UPS Peak/Demand Surcharge Import

UPS provides a weekly distribution called "Object Distribution" in the form of a Zip file containing a comma-separated format (text file with the extension "txt") for peak/demand surcharge rates, effective dates, accessorials, and specified domestic and international services. Parcel enables you to import these files into your Parcel system using the UPS Data Import screen.
To import UPS Peak/Demand Surcharge Data Import files...

  1. Extract the files from the UPS Peak/Demand Surcharge Data Import Zip file into a directory on your Parcel server.
    Caution: The directory to which you unzip the UPS Data Import files must be on the same system as the Parcel server.
