Creating Carrier Service Levels
A carrier service level record associates additional attributes with existing NetSuite shipping items. You can customize shipping processes to your warehouse requirements by applying the Quick Ship setting to your carrier service level.
You can create one or more carrier service level records for each shipping item that you use in your warehouse. When you set the Shipping Method field on sales and transfer orders, you associate the order with values you configure in the carrier service level record.
For more information about NetSuite shipping items, see Shipping Items.
