We currently use UPS WorldShip software, which we would like to replace with BC. Does anyone know where to point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Danny

    Hi, Microsoft does not have a standard integration tool, but some partners provide it, you can try to contact them.
     
    Thanks.

    Thanks, but I am looking to get rid of UPS World ship and find a third-party solution integrated with BC.

    Since there is no out-of-the-box solution, I suggest two options:
    1. Make customizations to interface with the third-party application.
    2. Look for an application to do the linking, as @YUN ZHU said.

    Check out Dynamic Ship from Insight Works.  Allows for rate shopping to multiple carriers and the selected carrier's label can be printed directly from BC.  Fantastic solution.
     
     
    Either your partner or direct support from Insight Works to implement.

    Business Central doesn’t have a built-in UPS WorldShip replacement. You’ll need either:
     
    A shipping add-on from AppSource (several partners provide UPS/FedEx integrations), or
     
    A custom integration using UPS APIs connected to BC.
     
     
    Best starting point is to check AppSource for shipping extensions, as they cover most scenarios without custom dev.

    Hi, 
     
    BC does not include native parcel shipping like UPS WorldShip, but you can replace it with integrated shipping apps that work inside BC. These solutions provide rate shopping, label printing, tracking, and multi-carrier support directly in Business Central.
    Recommended Options:
    • Dynamic Ship (Insight Works) – Multi-carrier integration (UPS, FedEx, DHL), real-time rates, label printing, and tracking inside BC. Learn more[1]
    • MetaShip – Cloud-based, fully integrated shipping for BC; supports UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL. Learn more[2]
    • Lanham E-Ship – Advanced shipping and compliance features for BC. Learn more[3]
    • ShipIT 365 (Idyn) – Connects to 1,500+ carriers globally. Learn more[4]
    Note: This answer is based on my understanding, with Microsoft Copilot helping me organize and polish the wording.

    UPS Worldship integration to BC

    Hi,

    UPS WorldShip has served many businesses well but replacing it with a BC-native solution can streamline your operations and eliminate manual steps. There are several integration paths depending on whether you want to connect WorldShip directly or replace it entirely.

    Here’s how to approach it:

    Option 1: Use a UPS Connector for BC

    • Solutions like the UPS WorldShip Connector allow you to pass shipping details from BC to WorldShip and receive tracking numbers and freight charges back in real time.
    • Features include address validation, rate quoting, label printing, and support for blind shipments and billing accounts.
    • This is ideal if you want to retain WorldShip but automate the data exchange.

    Option 2: Replace WorldShip with a Modern Shipping Add-on

    • Tools like MetaShip or Dynamic Ship by Insight Works offer full UPS integration directly inside BC.
    • These solutions support multi-carrier shipping, real-time tracking, automated label generation, and rate shopping, all without switching between systems.
    • MetaShip, for example, eliminates the need for WorldShip entirely and supports packing, shipping, and tracking from multiple locations.

    Option 3: Custom Integration via ODBC/XML

    • If you prefer a tailored solution, WorldShip supports integration via ODBC or XML data sources. You can build a bridge between BC and WorldShip using Power Automate, custom APIs, or middleware.
    • This requires more setup but gives you full control over the data flow.
