Setting up carriers

In order to create a shipment and send it through the selected carrier, you must first set up the carriers you want to work with. The setup is basically entering the API access credentials of the carrier that Parcelsync uses to create shipments and track shipments using your account that you have created with the carrier or that has been assigned to you (e.g. after signing a contract with the carrier).

Carrier settings can be found in the left menu under "Settings" -> "Carrier settings".
