FedEx®
Registering a FedEx® Account
Adding a FedEx® account to NetSuite enables you to offer FedEx real-time rates. You must have an active FedEx account to use FedEx real-time rates and integration.
If you have enabled Shipping Label Integration, you can print barcode shipping labels and receive tracking numbers.
If you charge for shipping, you can create shipping items with FedEx real-time rates. When a customer ships a purchase using FedEx, the current rate for the customer's location fills in the Amount field in your website and on transaction pages. The rate is an estimate of the final shipping cost and may vary slightly depending on the package size.
You must charge for shipping to use FedEx real-time rates or integration.
