When you're ready to ship an item, you can use the Ship Items action from the Manage Orders screen to:

adjust the quantity of each item to include in this shipment
adjust the weight and dimensions of the package
enter ship carrier and ship method
enter ship date
enter tracking number
print the packing slip
update the order status
notify the customer of a status update
create a shipment

If you’re using Stamps.com or Endicia to print shipping labels, in addition to all of the above features, you're also able to:

select your package type and shipping service
add Signature confirmation
add Parcel Insurance by U-PIC and adjust the insured value for a shipment
print a shipping label on an 8.5x11 inch paper using a standard office printer or a 4x6 inch label with a DYMO printer

You also have the option to split an order into multiple shipments. You may have to create multiple shipments if the order is too large for a single shipment and requires multiple packages. Another scenario would be if a particular item in an order is on backorder and must be shipped at a later date.

Ship Items

To create a shipment for a particular order, go to the Manage Orders page and edit an order, then click Ship Items.
