Warehouse setup and ShipStation matching
A controlled example can be a real transaction. No sandbox is guaranteed by this guide. Obtain authorized approval before importing or submitting an example, purchasing a label, creating a shipment or issuing an invoice. Use a small known record, confirm the provider environment and possible fees, and reconcile the outcome before any repeat.
Set up the physical warehouse and connect it to the correct ShipStation warehouse.
Menus and actions depend on your workspace, plan and permissions. Use the onboarding guide for current navigation. Provider setup and fees may apply; confirm the configured workflow before a transaction.
Why matching matters
A warehouse match connects a physical warehouse record to its ShipStation warehouse. It controls where D2C orders, inventory, labels, and shipment updates go.
Set up and match
- Create or edit the physical warehouse.
- Enter name, address, time zone, operating details, and defaults.
- Save and confirm the warehouse is active.
- Connect or refresh ShipStation stores and warehouses.
- Select the matching ShipStation warehouse and save the mapping.
- Run a test order or inventory refresh and confirm the warehouse.
Safety checks
- Do not map different physical warehouses to one ShipStation warehouse unless intentionally shared.
- Check client and store mappings before importing orders.
- If an order routes incorrectly, stop export and correct the mapping before shipping.
