Customize Your Table View

Before creating shipments, you can tailor your table to show key columns and sort orders the way your operations team prefers:

Column Visibility

  1. Click the ⚙️ Settings icon above the table

  2. Select or deselect columns to show only the data you need

  3. Save your changes

Reorder Columns

  1. In the same settings menu, drag and drop columns to rearrange them

  2. Save to lock in your preferred layout

Start Shipment Creation

With orders selected:

  1. Click Create above the list

  2. The dashboard opens the shipment creation workflow

Because the unified experience combines creation and management, you no longer need to switch between separate pages.

Configure Shipment Details

Depending on your chosen carrier and service, complete any required fields such as:

  • Courier service

  • Package dimensions & weight

  • Insurance (if applicable)

  • Pickup options

Easyship will show real-time rates based on your inputs.

Confirm & Generate Labels

Once all required information is filled:

  • Review the shipment details

  • Click Confirm to generate your shipping label(s)

If you have bulk shipments selected, labels will generate for all of them at once.

FAQ's

Q: Do I need to be a business to create a shipment with Easyship?
A: Anyone can use Easyship. However, it’s important to understand the terms of commercial shipping, especially regarding insurance.

Q: Which stores can I connect to sync orders?
A: In the Connect section of the dashboard you will be presented with a list of available stores. Additionally, you can locate a list of supported integrations here.

Q: How do I know which courier to use?
A: If you want a slow and economic solution with limited tracking, you can purchase a cheap/best value option. For a fast and reliable solution go with a courier with a higher tracking level. The higher the tracking level, the faster and more reliable the service! More information: Courier Tracking Ratings.

Q: Are returns free?
A: Refunds for returned shipments are rare, but international shipments returned before leaving the destination country may be eligible. Contact support for details.
