If you ship orders via Third Party Parcel Accounts, you need to create these accounts in Infoplus to execute third party billing for orders. 


NOTE: When an order ship using a third party account it “piggybacks” off of a primary Parcel Account. For example, a UPS Parcel Account is required to ship orders that call out a UPS Third Party Parcel Account. To create a Parcel Account see the Create a Parcel Account article.

  1. Access the “Third Party Parcel Account” table. Two methods:
