UPS offers some services through a Web Service called UPS Developer Kit®. Parcel uses UPS Developer Kit® to process tracking, Time in Transit, and Ground Freight Rating requests. Access to this Web Service requires that you first register for a UPS Developer Kit® account. You can do so using the Parcel UPS Developer Kit® Registration screen.
Access the Developer Kit Registration screen through the Parcel Configuration (Web Admin) tool for each of the following UPS carriers that Parcel supports:
•UPS - U.S. origin (UPS)
•UPS - Canada origin (UPS CA)
•UPS - Europe and Asia Pacific (UPS EU)
Notes:
•You need to register separately with UPS Developer Kit® for each of these UPS services and for each carrier you configure for each location.
•If you are upgrading from a previous Parcel version that already has a UPS Developer Kit® account set up in conjunction with a configured UPS carrier or carriers, you are not required to re-register for these carriers. However, it is recommended that you do so, according to the following procedure.
•UPS Developer Kit® replaces UPS Online® Tools in previous Parcel versions.
