USPS Ground Advantage has replaced the USPS First Class Package Service. If you are a Shipbridge user, make sure to update to version 5.9.2.6 or newer to take advantage of all our updates that support the new service.
Going forward, whenever you print a shipping label from a Shipbridge installation running the latest version, those labels will be saved on your Sellercloud server in addition to the local file path. This means you will be able to reprint any labels generated from FedEx, UPS, Endicia, and Amazon from any other Shipbrige installation. This workflow considers separate packages as well, so multiple labels per order will be accounted for and saved.
We have been informed by the Overstock Team, who recently acquired Bed Bath & Beyond, that there are some new requirements regarding the Ship From (Return to Sender) address on outbound shipping labels. We have added a setting in Shipbridge, to make sure overstock.com is not printed on the shipping label. Make sure that Use Overstock.com return address for all Overstock orders is disabled in the Shipping Tab of the Options in Shipbridge.

We have added a new option for saving Shipping Labels in Shipbridge. You can choose the <ShipBridge PDF Export> when configuring a Label Printer and select a file save path in the Shipping Tab > ShipBridge PDF Export Printer Settings. With this virtual printer, when you generate a shipping label, it will automatically save as a PDF in the selected folder, and the file’s name will be the Order ID.
We have added a new option to the Scan and Ship Functionality in our shipping application Shipbridge. You can make package barcode scanning a mandatory step in the workflow by enabling “Require barcode scan for shipping package type”. When the package type barcode is scanned, the package dimensions will be auto-populated and the packaging material used will be saved.
When generating a Picklist directly from Shipbridge, you now have the option to enable a new column that shows the current Quantity on Hand of the ordered product. This can be useful when deciding whether to include the product in the Picklist and to know whether you are running low on stock.
In Sellercloud, you are able to configure the dimensions of your products and package dimensions for shipping. For orders that only have one item, and for whatever reason, they are missing package dimensions, Shipbridge will now automatically use the item dimensions to save you time and avoid mistakes.
We have enhanced our Shipping application to have a more precise weight calculation using sub-ounce units when shipping with UPS as well as FedEx.
Shipbridge now allows you to restore previous settings versions of the app by connecting the Real-Time Support Server (RTS) with just a few clicks. This means that you will no longer need to download a copy of your settings in order to restore in case of errors or mistakes.
We have added support for the Paperless DHL Service for orders processed via our shipping application Shipbridge. The option can only be applied for orders shipped to countries that alow Paperless Shipments.
