For directions on setting up standard realtime UPS rates, or realtime rates from the other major carriers, please see this page.

Setup

1. In the eRatex admin console, go to Configuration > Settings.
   
   
2. In the Search All Fields box, enter 'Origin', then click Apply Filter.
   
   
3. Each of these RTShipping.Origin Settings needs to be populated. These make up the origin address that is used for shipping calculations, so set them to the address you wish to use for that purpose. Note the following rules:
   Be sure that RTShipping.OriginState is a 2-letter abbreviation, do not use the full state name
   RTShipping.OriginZip should only be 5 digits
   
   
4. Go to Configuration > Shipping Calculation, and select the radio button next to Use Real Time Rates, then click Save.
   
   
5. Once Real-time shipping is enabled, configure the software to use UPS' special API for negotiated rates:
   • Set the RTShipping.UPS.AccountNumber Setting to the 6-digit account number you obtained from UPS.
   • Set the RTShipping.ActiveCarrier Setting to UPS2 (in addition to other carriers used, comma separated)
   • Set the RTShipping.DomesticCarriers Setting to UPS2 if desired for United States rates (in addition to other carriers used, comma separated).
