Multi-Carrier Shipping & Label Hub — A shipping hub built into your NetSuite account: rate shopping, cartonisation, ZPL and PDF labels, tracking write-back and export documents across every carrier account you hold

What we build

  • Carrier account registry custom record holding account and meter numbers, enabled services, allowed Locations and API credentials stored in NetSuite credential fields, consumed through N/https.createSecureString
  • Rate shopping Suitelet callable from the Sales Order or Item Fulfillment that queries every enabled carrier account and returns service, transit days and quoted cost side by side
  • Rule engine on a custom record covering free-shipping service maps, customer-specific overrides, per-Location cutoff times, must-arrive-by dates and cost-versus-transit weighting, evaluated before the shipping method is stamped
  • Batch rating on a Map/Reduce script for wave picking, so packers never wait on a carrier API call at the station
  • Cartonisation from length, width, height and weight Item custom fields against a box catalogue, writing one line per carton to the package, packagefedex, packageups or packageusps sublists with dimensional weight applied before rating
  • Label generation as ZPL to network label printers or as PDF filed in the File Cabinet and attached to the Item Fulfillment, with reprint and return-label paths from the same packing Suitelet
  • Void and cancel handling that reverses the carrier shipment, clears tracking on the package sublist and writes a full audit row to a custom record
  • Commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin from Advanced PDF/HTML templates, with harmonized codes and country of origin sourced from an Item custom field or a Custom Segment and Incoterms on a transaction body field
  • LTL and freight support including bill of lading generation, pallet counts, freight class and NMFC fields, and third-party or collect billing options
  • Address validation and residential or commercial classification against the carrier API on the Customer address book, via a User Event script with a Client Script prompt at order entry
  • Tracking write-back to the package sublist and transaction body fields, plus a Scheduled Script that polls carrier tracking endpoints, stamps delivery status and drives N/email customer notifications
  • Rate reconciliation: carrier invoice detail imported to a custom record and compared to quoted cost, with a Saved Search of variances by carrier, service and Location, and per-carrier end-of-day manifest close-out filed in the File Cabinet

اس مصنوع کے بارے میں

Shipping is where a clean NetSuite implementation usually starts to leak. Native carrier integration covers a limited set of accounts and label scenarios, so the moment you add a regional carrier, a second FedEx or UPS account for a different Location, an LTL lane, or international shipments that need a commercial invoice, your warehouse ends up in carrier web portals. Addresses are re-keyed, tracking numbers are pasted back onto Item Fulfillments by hand, service selection becomes whatever the packer picked last time, and nobody can answer why the carrier invoice does not match what the order was quoted.

That gap is expensive in two directions at once. Operationally it costs seconds per parcel that scale into hours per day. Financially it costs the difference between the cheapest compliant service and the habitual one, multiplied by every shipment nobody rate-shopped.

What ECOSIRE builds

This is a build-to-order engagement. We build a shipping hub as NetSuite customisations inside your own account - SuiteScript 2.1, custom records, SuiteFlow and Advanced PDF/HTML templates - wired to the carrier accounts you already hold. There is nothing to download and no trial, because the build is shaped by which carriers you use, which Locations ship, and what your packing stations look like.

Carrier accounts and credentials

Every carrier account becomes a record: account number, meter or shipper number, negotiated-rate flag, origin Location, enabled services, and the API credentials themselves stored in NetSuite credential fields and consumed at runtime through N/https.createSecureString. Credentials never sit in script parameters, in the File Cabinet or in a custom field a support user can read. Multiple accounts per carrier are normal - a west-coast account and an east-coast account, or a brand-specific account - and each is bound to the Locations allowed to use it.

Rate shopping

A Suitelet callable from the Sales Order or the Item Fulfillment queries every enabled carrier account and returns service, transit days and quoted cost side by side. Selection is not left to instinct: a rule engine on a custom record evaluates free-shipping service maps, customer-specific service overrides, per-Location cutoff times, must-arrive-by dates and a configurable weighting of cost against transit time, then stamps the chosen carrier, service and quoted cost onto the transaction in custom body fields. The same rules can run headlessly on a Map/Reduce for batch waves, so a picker never waits on an API call.

Cartonisation and packing

Box selection uses length, width, height and weight custom fields on the Item record against a box catalogue custom record, producing one line per carton written to the Item Fulfillment package sublists - package, packagefedex, packageups or packageusps as appropriate to the carrier. Dimensional weight is calculated before rating so the quoted cost reflects what the carrier will actually bill. Where your warehouse packs by hand, the packing station Suitelet lets an operator confirm or override the suggested cartons and reprint.

Labels

Labels are generated as ZPL streamed to network label printers, or as PDF filed in the File Cabinet and attached to the Item Fulfillment record. Both paths are available from the same packing Suitelet, along with reprint, void and return-label generation. Void reverses the carrier shipment, clears the tracking on the package sublist and writes an audit row to a custom record, so a cancelled shipment does not leave a phantom tracking number on a customer notification.

International and freight documentation

Commercial invoices, packing lists and certificates of origin are produced from Advanced PDF/HTML templates. Harmonized codes and country of origin come from an Item custom field or a Custom Segment so classification is maintained once and reused everywhere. Incoterms sit on a transaction body field, and electronic export filing references are captured where required. For LTL and freight lanes the hub generates a bill of lading, handles pallet counts, freight class and NMFC fields, and supports third-party and collect billing arrangements.

Tracking and reconciliation

Tracking numbers are written to the package sublist and to transaction body fields as shipments are created. A Scheduled Script polls carrier tracking endpoints and stamps delivery status and delivery date, which drives customer notification emails from N/email and gives customer service a Saved Search of shipments in transit past their expected date instead of a stack of portal tabs. Finally, carrier invoice detail is imported into a custom record and compared line by line against quoted cost, producing a Saved Search of variances by carrier, service and Location - the report that turns address corrections, dimensional-weight adjustments and residential surcharges from invisible leakage into a monthly action list.

Fitting your account, not a template

Address validation and residential classification run against the carrier API on the Customer address book through a User Event script with a Client Script prompt, so bad addresses are caught at order entry rather than at the label printer. In OneWorld, carrier accounts, origin addresses and document templates are scoped by Subsidiary. Roles and permissions are configured so a packing-station user can rate, label and void without holding setup or script permissions, and so finance can see the reconciliation searches without touching the warehouse screens.

Who this is for

Brands and distributors shipping parcel and freight from more than one Location. Teams holding several carrier accounts whose packers currently choose services by habit. Companies shipping internationally who produce customs paperwork outside NetSuite. Finance teams who suspect the gap between quoted and billed freight is material but have no report that proves it.

How delivery works

1. Scoping call. Tell us which carriers and accounts you hold, which Locations ship, whether you run LTL, whether you ship internationally, and what your packing stations and label printers look like. 2. Fixed quote. You get a written scope naming every carrier integration, every document template and every rule set, with a fixed price and a delivery window. Nothing is built before you approve it. 3. Build. Development runs against carrier test or sandbox credentials with your item dimensions and address data shape. Typical lead time is one working week depending on carrier count and whether international documentation and LTL are in scope. 4. Install in sandbox. Delivered to your NetSuite sandbox as an SDF project and unmanaged bundle. Your packers run real orders end to end, print real test labels and confirm the printer path before anything reaches production. 5. Production. After sign-off we install into production, switch to live carrier credentials, configure deployments and schedules, and stand alongside your team for the first live wave. 6. Support. A post-go-live support window agreed in the quote, then a written change-request route for adding carriers, services or Locations later.

What this is not

We do not resell shipping, negotiate your rates or hold your carrier contracts - you bring your own accounts and API credentials, and the rates you see are the rates your account is entitled to. Some carriers require the label output to be certified before they issue production credentials; we support that submission, but the carrier controls the timeline. And there is no instant download: every hub is built for the carrier mix in your quote.

Who this is for

Warehouse or Fulfilment Manager

Runs packing stations where operators bounce between NetSuite and two or three carrier portals, re-keying addresses and pasting tracking numbers back by hand. A single packing Suitelet that rates, cartonises, labels and writes tracking straight to the Item Fulfillment removes the portal entirely from the daily loop.

E-commerce Operations Manager

Owns the promised delivery dates and the shipping cost line, but has no way to enforce which service a packer selects. Rule-driven rate shopping with per-Location cutoffs and must-arrive-by logic means the cheapest compliant service is chosen automatically instead of by habit.

Controller or Finance Manager

Sees carrier invoices that never quite reconcile to what orders were quoted, with no visibility into address corrections, dimensional-weight adjustments or residential surcharges. The quoted-versus-billed variance search turns that leakage into a monthly report with named causes.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the build take, and can I use it immediately after buying?
No - nothing is pre-built and there is no instant download or free trial. After the scoping call and your approval of the fixed quote, a typical shipping hub build runs one working week. A parcel-only build with two carriers sits at the short end; adding international documentation, LTL and bill of lading, or several origin Locations moves it to the long end. Any carrier label certification that a carrier requires happens after that and runs on the carrier's schedule.
Which NetSuite versions and editions are supported?
Any currently supported NetSuite release, on standard NetSuite or OneWorld. The hub is written in SuiteScript 2.1 and needs the usual SuiteCloud features enabled - Server SuiteScript, Client SuiteScript, Custom Records, SuiteFlow and Advanced PDF/HTML templates for the shipping documents. In OneWorld, carrier accounts, origin addresses and document templates are scoped by Subsidiary so entities do not share credentials or paperwork.
Do I need my own carrier accounts, or do you provide rates?
You bring your own carrier accounts and API credentials. We are not a reseller or a rate aggregator, we do not negotiate on your behalf, and we do not mark up shipping. The rates the hub returns are exactly what your account is entitled to, including negotiated rates where your account has them enabled. That also means there is no per-label fee from us at any point.
Which carriers can you integrate?
Any carrier that publishes an API we can reach from NetSuite over N/https - the large parcel carriers such as FedEx, UPS, USPS and DHL, plus regional parcel carriers and LTL providers with a rating and BOL interface. At the scoping call we confirm each carrier on your list against its current API documentation and tell you plainly if one lacks the endpoints needed for a capability you want, rather than discovering it mid-build.
How do labels reach our printers?
Two supported paths. ZPL is streamed to network-attached label printers from the packing Suitelet, which is what most warehouses use for thermal printing at speed. Alternatively the label is generated as a PDF, filed in the File Cabinet and attached to the Item Fulfillment record for printing through the browser. We confirm your printer model and network arrangement at scoping and prove the path in sandbox before go-live.
What happens to shipments that are voided or returned?
Voiding from the packing Suitelet reverses the shipment with the carrier, clears the tracking numbers from the Item Fulfillment package sublist and writes an audit row to a custom record, so a cancelled label cannot leave a live tracking number on a customer notification. Return labels are generated against the same carrier account and linked to the originating transaction, so returns arrive with a reference your warehouse can match on receipt.
