UPS Batch Shipping Plugin for Woocommerce
I would like to be able to utilize UPS's batch shipping capability in woocommerce. This would allow automated UPS label generation for multiple orders or for each order as it comes in.
This can currently be accomplished by using a CSV exporter plugin, exporting order data, then importing the CSV file to the "UPS batch shipping" page. UPS will then generate labels and tracking info for the entire CSV list.
There is currently desktop software that does exactly this. You can select addresses / orders from either an address book, or quickbooks export, then simply press "ship" and all labels for all orders are generated. It shouldn't be very difficult to get that same functionality in woocommerce.

I have a plugin that allows you to create ups labels through the dashboard. I've recently been working on creating an add-on that would allow you to batch print labels for all orders in "processing" status and then set those order status to "complete". This creates a single pdf, with one label per page, with the page size set to whatever you have the plugin configured for (to match your printer). Does that sound like something that would be useful?

Hello Ryan and Guillaume,
Any updates on the UPS story? I also have the CSV exporter plugin did you have it working now for UPS? My CSV does not get the right field by default.
Greetings, Joeri

Hello Ryan,
I purchased the CSV exporter plugin. How did you make it work for the "UPS batch shipping" page?
did you have to add some custom code the plugin or edit the fields? thank you
