NetSuite Ship Central: The Shipping Integration that Turns Chaos into Control.
Picture this:
Your pickers are flying, your packers are on point but shipping slows everything to a crawl. You’re flipping between carrier systems, copying tracking numbers and crossing your fingers the labels print right. The clock ticks, orders pile up and customers start emailing “Where’s my order?”.
NetSuite’s Ship Central changes that.
What is NetSuite Ship Central?
Ship Central is NetSuite’s built-in solution, designed to work seamlessly with NetSuite Warehouse Management System (WMS). It brings picking, packing, shipping and label printing into one place, right inside NetSuite…no third-party tools, no messy workarounds.
Key Features:
Mobile ready: Use handheld scanners or packing station kiosks.
Real-time Data: Inventory, order status and tracking sync instantly.
Multi-Carrier Support: Ship via UPS, FedEx, USPS or custom carriers without leaving NetSuite.
How Ship Central Works with NetSuite WMS
Ship Central picks up where WMS leaves off:
Pick Orders in WMS: Your team scans and picks items for shipment.
Pass to Ship Central: Picked orders auto-populate in the packing queue.
Pack & Ship: Scan items, print labels and confirm shipment all from one screen.
Update Orders & Inventory: NetSuite automatically records shipping details, updates stock levels and emails tracking emails to customers.
Why it matters:
Eliminate double-entry: Data flows directly from the sales order.
Streamline operations: Save minutes per order, which adds up to hours per day.
Maintain one source of truth: Shipping, inventory and finances stay perfectly aligned.
