Before you can create and print FedEx shipping labels directly from your WooCommerce orders, you need to configure the shipping label settings in the FedEx Shipping PRO plugin for WooCommerce.
These settings allow you to customize how shipping labels are created, including whether you want to review shipping rates, confirm package details, and select your preferred shipping label format.
The steps required to create a shipping label may vary depending on which options you enable under the “Shipping Labels” tab.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to configure these settings in the FedEx shipping plugin to match your preferred shipping workflow.
Once you’ve completed the configuration, you can follow our next guide to learn how to create and print FedEx shipping labels directly from WooCommerce orders.
Step 1: Access the FedEx Shipping Plugin PRO for WooCommerce Settings #
- Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
- From the left-hand menu, hover over “1TeamSoftware” and click “FedEx Shipping”.
- This will take you to the settings page for the FedEx Shipping plugin PRO for WooCommerce.
Step 2: Open the Shipping Labels Tab #
- Scroll down the plugin’s settings page and locate the “Shipping Labels” tab.
- Click the tab to expand it and view all the available shipping label settings.
Step 3: Configure the Print Shipping Label Options #
Under the “Print Shipping Label” section, you can enable the options that best suit your preferred workflow.
For this guide, we want to:
- View shipping rates for different FedEx services before purchasing a shipping label.
