More than one account with a carrier? Set the default account.

Updated October 26, 20261 min readConnect and manage your carriers

When you have more than one account with a single carrier added to Postsale, you need to set the default account. The default carrier account is the account that Postsale uses to calculate and display rates and to create shipping labels.

This article will show you how to set a carrier account as the default account.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

We have two USPS accounts in Postsale: Postsale's built-in USPS account and our own Fern & Field USPS account. We want Postsale to use the built-in account by default.

Set the Default Account

This article uses USPS as an example. However, the process is the same for all carriers.

  1. Go to Settings.

    Settings is highlighted in the header.
  2. Select Carrier Settings.

    Carrier Settings is highlighted in the Settings menu.
  1. Select the carrier.

    USPS is highlighted in the Carrier Settings sidebar.
  2. Select the account you wish to set as the default. Then, click the Make Default button.

    The Built-in USPS Account row and Make Default are highlighted, numbered 1 and 2, in the USPS accounts list.

The Default column now shows Yes for this account.

Default Yes is highlighted in the USPS accounts list.
