Preparing products for Easyship rates and labels
Easyship needs accurate information about the items inside a shipment. Complete each product's measurements before enabling live rates, and complete customs details for products in profiles that may ship internationally.
Open Easyship product readiness
In Beventi, open Integrations > Easyship.
Select Products.
Use Needs attention to find incomplete products.
Search or filter when you need a particular product, type or sale status.
You can edit one row or select several products and use bulk editing.
Add measurements
For every physical product, add the following:
Weight.
Length.
Width.
Height.
Choose the units that match your measurements. Beventi supports grams, kilograms, ounces and pounds for weight, and centimeters or inches for dimensions.
Measure the product as it will be packed inside the parcel. Do not add the outer mailer's measurements to the product itself; save the mailer under Packages.
Check variants and bundles
Variants inherit the product's shipping values unless you override them. If variants have different sizes or weights, review each one. For example, a paperback and a large hardback edition should not share measurements when their packed sizes differ.
Bundles ship as their child items and need a complete packing path. If buyers can choose child variants, make sure the relevant child products and variants have measurements. Beventi blocks live rates when it cannot determine what will be packed.
Add customs information
For products that may cross a border, add:
HS tariff code.
Customs value.
Country of origin.
Customs description.
Customs value should describe the value of one item for customs purposes. Country of origin is where the product was manufactured, not where it is being shipped from.
Example for a printed paperback:
Description: "Printed paperback book"
Origin country: the country where that edition was printed
Customs value: the per-copy value you declare
HS tariff code: the code appropriate to the product and destination rules
Beventi cannot decide your legal tariff classification. If you are unsure, confirm it with your customs adviser or the relevant authority.
Use customs auto-fill
Customs auto-fill can add suggestions to empty fields using the product type, price and ship-from country. Review every suggestion before relying on it.
Auto-fill does not overwrite existing customs details. Products without a recognized type may still need manual work.
Use Amazon-assisted measurements
When Amazon product data is available, the Products screen can help fill measurements. Treat the result as a starting point and compare it with the exact edition you stock. Different bindings, trim sizes and special-edition packaging can have different dimensions even when the titles match.
Bulk-edit similar products
Bulk editing is useful when several products share genuine values. For example, you might select one paperback edition across several cover designs and apply the same packed dimensions.
Do not bulk-apply a weight, origin country or tariff code merely because products have similar titles. Confirm that the physical products really match.
What blocks live rates
Beventi will ask you to fix:
Missing product or required variant measurements.
A bundle whose packed child items cannot be resolved.
Missing customs information on a profile that may ship internationally.
Missing saved packages do not block setup.
FAQ
Do digital products need shipping measurements?
No. Only items that require shipping are included in the Easyship packing and quote.
Which measurements should I use for a book?
Use the packed physical copy's weight and outside dimensions. Check each edition or variant when format, trim size or binding changes.
Why are customs fields required before I know the buyer's country?
When a shipping profile allows international destinations, completing customs data in advance lets Beventi request a quote as soon as a buyer enters an overseas address. A domestic-only profile does not need international customs data to enable live rates.
Does the product price automatically become the customs value?
Auto-fill may suggest it for an empty field, but you remain responsible for reviewing the declared value.
