Guest Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 I am tediously copying and pasting shipping data for each order to ups.com for creating shipments, sometimes up to 30 a day. This is taking too much of my time. Are there any contributions to import this data quicker? Does UPS accept comma dilemmeted files, etc. I have an old snapshot (Feb 2002), so I would probably have to modify things, but I need a place to start. Any suggestions? Thanks.

drbill Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Are you using the UPS Worldship software? We use that and import OSC order data directly into the Worldship Addressbook. I wrote a program (in WINbatch) that takes the output of the data in the Orders table (exported via any good MySQL database tool like PHPAdmin) and then formats it into the correct comma-delimited file that Worldship needs. I can send you the complied WINbatch executable... or the code (if you happen to have WINbatch.) It works well for us... we can then just type in the Order Number in Worldship (which I have mapped to the "CustomerID" field) and viola! You have your order's billing address in UPS Worldship! Slick and handy! Quote - Dr. Bill http://www.lowcarbnexus.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieO Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Dr. Bill... I need to develop a mailing list from the complete customer list, not just the customers who have already ordered? Could this be just what the doctor ordered? :) TIA AnnieO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricK Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Has anyone written a PHP script to import OSC order data directly into the Worldship Addressbook? Thanks, EricK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
