USPS and FedEx Shipping Update
I completed a few more features this week for the integrated USPS and FedEx Shipping products. Both products now support ad hoc labels so you can ship packages that are not related to any order. The standalone packages and labels are tracked in the History in case you need to reprint a label or answer a customer service question.
A new label printer program for Windows is also complete. This is primarily so you can print your labels on Zebra compatible printers. But there are a few nice features for "normal" labels too. For example, you can tell it to print labels in landscape and make 2 copies.
The last big change (from my perspective) is the removal of the ShipOrders.aspx page. This page replaced the page with the same name written by BV Software. Even though I spent a lot of time on that page, I was always uneasy about including it. It was the only piece that could potentially break your website (if you removed my software from the site without replacing ShipOrder.aspx, the page would break and you would not be able to process any shipments in BVC5). By removing it from the package, I have a very clean line between my product and BVC5.
Besides...who needs it? The two pages that come with USPS and FedEx Shipping are more powerful and easier to use anyway!
