First Mile additional services
We are going to start processing international shipments out of our NY warehouse (previously was out of UK). We'd been working with DHL First Mile for quotes and in moving forward with this set up realized that the shipping options they had quoted us were not available in ShipStation. Is it possible for ShipStation to reflect their current available rates from First Mile? Specifically ePacket and Priority Packet Tracked rates. First Mile offers very competitive international shipping rates, and making all of those available via ShipStation would be a huge help for us and other businesses I'm sure.

eBay canceled orders DO NOT cancel in ShipStation! Risk of $ loss!?!
When an order is cancelled on eBay it should automatically be cancelled in ShipStation.
This does NOT happen.
When an order gets canceled on eBay it remains in 'awaiting shipment' in ShipStation unless it's manually canceled. If a staff member cancels the order on eBay and forgets to also manually cancel it in ShipStation and that item gets shipped out by the shipping team. This results in shipping out items that were canceled and refunded. That is a huge financial loss.
I contacted ShipStation support. They said the reason is that the eBay order feed shows OrderStatus": 2 instead of OrderStatus":…

Pushing calculated rates for specific products to Shopify checkout
We would like to have the ability to push specialized calculated rates for specific items, based on dimensions and weight, from Shipstation to Shopify checkout.
Most of our items use a standard packaging size, but a handful of items are much larger and require a much different shipping rate than what we factored in for our flat rate shipping. We would like to be able to compensate for this.
I would like to be able to set a rule that, if these particular items are added to the cart, then it changes the shipping options at checkout from our flat…

OPEN ORDERS DIRECTLY INTO SHIP STATION FROM SHOPIFY TO SAVE TIME SEARCHING FOR AN ORDER
Is there a way from the Shopify orders page to open up the order directly into shipstation? For example when we click "more actions" in shopify we can usually click make shipping label with shippo and it takes us directly into the order without having to search for it to make the label which saves us some time

DHL V4 API Connection
With the V4 API connection to DHL - Order numbers are included in the shipment data. Right now this is not happening which is creating a lot of work in our reconciliation process.

I am looking to enable the GoGreen Carbon Neutral Service with DHL.
We are a carbon negative business and have recently moved our courier from DPD to DHL. There seems to be no way to select the GoGreen Carbon Neutral Service with DHL. This feature is absolutely critical to us, as we have to offset the carbon emissions if we don't select this option. We urgently need this option enabled please.

Restrict available Products in Manual stores
I work for a warehouse and we ship out items for multiple different businesses. It would be nice to be able to restrict available products in manual-store so when a manul order is created only the products for that store come up.

ShipSurance billing - Refunds and all transactions need to be displayed!
I had contacted Shipstation today to see if my voided ShipSurance insurance was actually refunded; because there is NO way to see the last 14 days of insurance purchases or refunds with ShipSurance.
When Shipstation finally got back to me, I was told that this "FEATURE" (to see our purchased and refunded Shipsurance payments) is NOT AVAILABLE... Instead, I was told to create this "Feedback Suggestion," in hopes that it would get "voted on." (See attached email from your staff).
I am NOT happy! That is NOT a good answer. We buy tons of insurance on a daily basis, and…

Notification for expiring token
Would be great to get an auto-generated email notification in advance of a marketplaces's expiring token. Maybe 30 days/7 days/1day warnings, or something along those lines. It creates a bit of a mess if a channel is disconnected while orders are coming in. This just happened to me- the way I found out was because my marketplace shipment notifications were failing. I chatted with an agent about it and they did not even see that was the issue. I figured it out myself. Thanks for considering!

Statement of spend on ShipStation Carrier Services
When using ShipStation Carrier Services, it would be useful to see a statement of spend - both of topups and deductions so we can cross-reference for accounting purposes. The automatic invoices of topups are useful, but I had a label duplication printing error the other day which I wasn't able to check without contacting support.

automate.io
Please create an integration like Zapier, but for Automate.io.They have workflow bots (multiple step push/pull, not just one push/pull). I would use it to sync my tracking numbers to a field in a g-sheet and then send an email from my Gmail (g-suite) account with the tracking number, all in the same flow.

Etsy
I would like Ship Station to be able to pull through Gift Notes from Etsy please. We need to see these as some of our items need messages in.
Many thanks,

Update Shopify with new tracking info when shipping label is cancelled and reissued
For a variety of reasons, we will occasionally need to void a shipping label and then create a new label for a shipment. This is no problem, and works smoothly.
However, my customers get confused when the tracking information they were sent from shopify (received from shipstation) ends up saying that the label has been cancelled.
Right now, when a new label is issued in shipstation, a note is added within shopify indicating the new shipping carrier and tracking number. However, this is not communicated to the customer.
Manually adding or communicating the updated tracking information is burdensome, as most…

Site Account as matching criteria with channel adviser.
Add more relevent criteria to be able to identify orders coming in to Shipstation. Specifically when there are multiple sites flowing into Channel Adviser and all shipping from the same distribution center. Would be nice to have Site Account added to Shipstation's matching criteria with Channel Advisor!

return shipping price back to magento
A lot of companies ship wholesale orders that the shipping is pre-paid and add. The invoice is sent to the customer for payment after the order has shipped. The shipping amount has to be manually put on the order in Magento once the order has shipped. It would be nice to have the option to override the shipping price on the order in Magento, with the actual shipping paid in ShipStation.

importing line items from a mixed order into quickbooks online
I need to know exactly how much of each item was sold at the time the orders transfer from Shipstation to Quickbooks Online. We sort our sales by product category company wide, but we can't get that data easily from Shipstation. Everything arrives in QBO as Mixed order and goes into one bucket.
Is there a report I can run that will show this data so at least I can do a journal entry? Seems a bummer that it can't be automated as so much for Shipstation offers the automation.
Let me know if there is a work around. Thanks.

ShipStation and MyDHL+ Integration
It would be great if there was a native integration between ShipStation and MyDHL+ so that all DHL labels created in ShipStation are imported into MyDHL+. This will allow us to create return labels from the original shipment if required as ShipStation does not offer international returns.
This would improve our companies productivity and minimise human error. Thank you!
