To resolve this, verify both email addresses are correct and valid. Additionally, ensure the shipping address is complete and accurate.

2. Disable the option “Billing Address as Shipper Address on Label” in your plugin settings.
3. Save the changes and try generating the shipping label again.
The error typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the entered state and postal code. Even if you’re using Google Maps API for address verification, UPS strictly validates addresses based on its own system. You can try using the UPS address suggestion.
The error “The Shipper’s shipper number cannot be used for the shipment [Error Code: 120121]” occurs when your UPS account is no longer recognized by the UPS API to generate shipping labels, or if the account is inactive due to inactivity or no balance.

– The UPS account number is not present in your UPS profile.

2. If the number is missing, add it and re-register your UPS account within the plugin.
The error “The Shipper’s shipper number cannot be used for the shipment [Error Code: 120121]” can occur due to several reasons:

– Your UPS Account may have become inactive, possibly due to insufficient balance or extended inactivity. In this case, you’ll need to contact the UPS team to resolve the issue.
This error occurs because the minimum package weight set in the plugin’s rate calculation settings does not match your actual package weight.

1. Go to your plugin settings.
2. Navigate to the “Rates and Services” section.
3. Remove or adjust the Minimum Package Weight value to ensure it does not exceed the weight of your products.

After this adjustment, UPS rates should display correctly for packages within the allowed weight range.
Error code #120121, which states “The Shipper’s shipper number cannot be used for the shipment,” typically arises from one of the following reasons:
– The UPS Account Number used for registration is not connected to the UPS profile that was logged in during plugin registration.
– The UPS Account number is not added to your UPS profile on ups.com. To resolve this, log in to ups.com, go to the “Accounts & Payments” section, and add the correct UPS account number if it is missing. After adding the account, re-register your UPS account in the plugin and try generating the label again.
– The UPS Account may be inactive due to issues such as insufficient balance or prolonged inactivity. In this case, you need to contact UPS to reactivate your account.
If error logs or debug messages appear when printing shipping labels, the debug mode may be enabled in the PluginHive UPS plugin. To resolve this:
1. Go to the UPS plugin settings within your WordPress admin dashboard.
2. Locate the “General” tab.
3. Disable the “debug mode” option.
4. Save the changes to prevent debug logs from being displayed during standard operations.
Logs are displayed instead of the shipping label because the debug mode is enabled in the plugin. To resolve this, go to General Settings and disable the debug mode. This will prevent logs from appearing when you generate shipping labels.
The “Missing or invalid Package PackagingType Code [Error Code: 120600]” error usually appears when no package is selected or the selected package is not valid for the shipping address. It can also occur if packages are not properly generated during label creation. To troubleshoot:
1. Ensure that a valid package type is selected and available for the destination address.
2. If you are unsure of the configuration, enable the “Debug Mode” option in the plugin settings.
3. After activating Debug Mode, try generating the label again. If the issue persists, go to the “Help & Support” page in the plugin settings and submit a Diagnostic Report.
This error typically appears if there is a misconfiguration. To investigate further, kindly contact [email protected], and they will help you resolve this.
This error occurs because UPS’s API requires the recipient’s phone number to be at least 10 digits. This is a requirement from UPS, not a limitation of the PluginHive plugin. To resolve this issue:
1. Check the recipient’s (customer’s) shipping details and ensure that a valid 10-digit phone number is entered.
2. Update the phone number if necessary in the order or customer profile.
3. After correcting the phone number, try generating the shipping label again.
This should resolve the error, and the label purchase process should work as expected.
The error “Invalid Access License number” occurs when the plugin license is not linked to the UPS registration process.
To resolve this, please follow these steps:
Update the plugin to the latest version.
Deactivate and re-activate the plugin license by going to UPS Shipping → License Activation.
Re-register your UPS account in the plugin.
The error “Missing or Invalid Shipper Number” can occur for two reasons:
1. Incorrect UPS Account Number
The UPS account number is a 6-digit alphanumeric code.
Go to UPS Shipping → Registration and verify the account number.
If it’s incorrect, re-register your UPS account with the correct number.
2. UPS Account Not Linked to Your Profile
Log in to the UPS profile used in the plugin.
Check if the registered UPS account number is listed under your profile in the Accounts & Payments section.
If it’s missing, add it and re-register the UPS account in the plugin.
The error “Missing or invalid service code [Error Code: 120500]” typically occurs when the UPS shipping label generation attempts to use a service that is not available for the specific shipment details. In your scenario, this can happen if there are no eligible services available based on the shipping zone configuration. To address this:
1. On the order page, use the “Calculate Cost” option to display all UPS services available for the shipment. Verify that your selected service (e.g., UPS 2nd Day Air) is listed.
2. Choose one of the available UPS services from the dropdown before generating the label, then try generating the label.
3. If no services appear, follow these troubleshooting steps:
– Go to the UPS plugin settings and enable the “Debug Mode” option.
– On the affected order’s page, click “Calculate Cost” again.
– After performing these actions, navigate to the plugin’s “Help & Support” page and submit a Diagnostic Report for further support (include your ticket/reference number if applicable).
Once done, the support team will get back to you.
The error “The selected service is not available to residential destinations” appears when the shipping service or any special service you’ve selected is not supported for the given residential address.
Please check if you’ve selected any special services (like Signature Required, Delivery Confirmation or Saturday delivery).
If so, try disabling them and generate the label again.
This error typically occurs when your plugin license has not been linked with your UPS Account Registration. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
– Update the plugin to its latest version.
– Deactivate the plugin license and then re-activate it. (Go to UPS Registration — License Activation.)
– Re-register your UPS account.
These steps should resolve the error and allow UPS rates to be displayed on your site.
The error “The country associated with Shipper’s ShipperNumber must be the same as the shipment’s Shipper’s country” occurs when the origin country linked to your UPS account number does not match the Ship-from address country in your WooCommerce store.
For example, if your UPS account is registered in the US, your Ship-from address must also be a US address.
Please verify and correct the Ship-from address in the plugin settings.
Also, make sure the option “Billing Address as Shipper Address on Label” is disabled.
This should resolve the error.
The “Print Label” option will only appear once a shipping label has been successfully generated for the order. To resolve this:
1. Select one of the available shipping costs for the order.
2. Click the “Confirm Shipment” option to generate the shipping label.
3. Once the label is generated, the “Print Label” option will appear.
If the label does not generate even after clicking “Confirm Shipment”, further troubleshooting is needed:
– Enable “Debug Mode” in the General Tab of the plugin settings.
– Attempt to generate the label again.
– Navigate to the “Help & Support” page within the plugin settings and submit a Diagnostic Report following the provided instructions.
– Share the diagnostic report with PluginHive support for further assistance.
The plugin generates and displays the label exactly as received from UPS, without modifying it. If the soft copy of your label is clear and does not show grid lines, but the printed label is unclear or contains unwanted backgrounds, the issue likely lies with your printer settings or drivers rather than with the plugin. You should:
– Check your print preview settings before printing.
– Make sure your printer driver (especially for Zebra printers) is up-to-date and configured correctly.
– Try voiding the existing labels, then in the plugin settings set the label type to “PNG” and turn off the “Display labels in Browser” option. Generate a new label, download it, open the file from your system and print it.
– If grid lines or quality problems persist only on the physical print and not on the soft copy, consult your printer’s support team, as the PluginHive support is not equipped to troubleshoot specific printer configuration issues.
The TO and FROM addresses are switched on the shipping label because the “ShipFrom Address Preference” is set to “Shipping Address” in your plugin settings. To fix this:
1. Go to the General tab under your plugin settings.
2. Change the “ShipFrom Address Preference” setting to “Origin Address.”
3. Void the incorrect shipping labels that were generated.
4. Generate new shipping labels to confirm that the addresses are shown correctly.
By updating this setting, the proper FROM address will be used, and the client’s order address will be correctly listed as the TO address.
The plugin fetches live shipping rates directly from the UPS API. If the rates seem higher than expected:
1. Confirm that any price adjustments have been set, as these are added to the fetched rates.
2. Enable the Negotiated Rates option in the plugin and set the “Customer classification” setting to “Rates associated with shipper number” for account-specific rates.
3. Ensure that the shipper and recipient addresses, UPS service code, package weight, and dimensions match exactly with what is entered on the UPS website.
4. Check the Insured Value indicator in the plugin settings, as this can also affect the shipping rates.
5. To further troubleshoot, enable “Debug Mode” in the plugin settings, reproduce the issue, and submit a Diagnostic Report through the “Help & Support” page in plugin settings for detailed analysis.
6. Log in to UPS’s website, check the rates using the same details, and compare them with the plugin’s rates for further correlation.
To ensure shipping rates are displayed on the cart and checkout pages, please verify that the Real-Time Rates option is enabled in the plugin settings.
The “No shipping method available” typically appears due to one or more of the following reasons:
1. Missing product weight or dimensions
2. Incomplete UPS account registration
3. Incorrect shipper/origin address
We recommend reviewing these settings and confirming the details.
Note: UPS requires the country, state, city, and postal code fields to be filled in to fetch live shipping rates.
If you continue facing issues, you can enable Debug Mode in the plugin settings, reproduce the issue, and submit a Diagnostic Report via the “Help & Support” page with your ticket reference for further assistance.
UPS no longer supports freight shipments and has discontinued its freight services. TForce, which previously handled UPS Freight shipments, is now a separate carrier. For freight shipment support, you can use the TForce plugin, available here: https://www.pluginhive.com/product/woocommerce-tforce-freight-shipping-plugin-with-print-label/
To resolve the “Invalid Authentication Information” error when generating labels, follow these steps:
1. Update the plugin to the latest version.
2. Deactivate the plugin license and then re-activate it. Go to UPS Shipping → License Activation to perform this step.
3. Re-register your UPS account.
This sequence links your plugin license activation with the UPS account registration, which resolves the authentication error. If you face any difficulties during these steps, seek further assistance.
Forbidden usually occurs because the UPS account is not properly linked to plugin.
To resolve the “Failed to get Internal Endpoints – Forbidden” error and restore live rates in the PluginHive UPS plugin, follow these steps:
1. Update the plugin to its latest version.
2. Deactivate the plugin license and then re-activate it. This can be done by going to UPS Shipping > License Activation in your WordPress admin dashboard.

– Go to the UPS Shipping section and select License Activation to perform this step.
3. Re-register your UPS account within the plugin.

This error occurs when the origin country linked to your UPS account number does not match the “Ship-from” address country used for the shipment.
To resolve this issue:
1. Check and make sure the Ship-from address set in your WooCommerce settings matches the country where your UPS account is registered.
2. Verify that the Ship-from country is not set to a different country than your UPS account origin.
3. Ensure you have disabled the option “Billing Address as Shipper Address on Label” in your shipping settings. This prevents the system from using the customer’s address as the origin.
Correcting these settings will resolve the error and allow you to generate shipping labels for international orders.
This error typically occurs when your plugin license activation is not properly linked to your UPS account registration in the plugin. To resolve this issue:
1. Update the plugin to its latest version.
2. Deactivate the plugin license and reactivate it. Navigate to UPS Registration → License Activation, then re-activate.
3. Re-register your UPS account within the plugin.
Following these steps will properly link your license and UPS registration, resolving the access token error.
The error occurs because the ShipTo address in your order contains a mismatched combination: the postal code “73049” (which belongs to Jones, Oklahoma) is incorrectly paired with the state “WI” (Wisconsin). This is not a valid address combination. To resolve the issue:
– Go to the respective order in your store.
– Edit the billing/shipping address.
– Enter a valid address with the correct state and corresponding postal code.
– After updating, try generating the shipping label again. This should resolve the error.
This error occurs because of a mismatch between the weight and dimension unit settings in the plugin and the country requirements. For example, if your plugin is set to use LBS/IN while your country requires KG/CM, UPS will not accept the shipment request and will return this error. To resolve this, please check the units you have selected under WooCommerce –> Settings –> Products –> Measurement Units?
Please change it to either KG/CM or LB/IN as per your country’s Measurement Units and try again.
This error occurs because UPS requires the origin country linked to your UPS account (Shipper country) to match the Ship From address country on the label. To resolve this, ensure that your UPS account is registered in the same country as your Ship From address. This restriction is imposed by UPS, not by the PluginHive plugin. Double-check your UPS account’s country and update the Ship From address accordingly to generate the shipping label successfully.
The “Invalid Authentication Information” error occurs when the plugin license activation is not properly linked to your UPS account registration. To resolve this and restore UPS rate retrieval at checkout, follow these steps:

2. Go to the plugin’s admin area and navigate to UPS Shipping > License Activation.
3. Deactivate your current plugin license and then re-activate it.

This process should re-establish the correct authentication link between your PluginHive license and your UPS account, allowing rates to show correctly at checkout. If you encounter any issues during these steps, consult the plugin documentation or contact PluginHive support for further assistance.
The ‘Forbidden’ error likely occurs if the plugin license activation is not linked to the UPS account registration process. To resolve this issue:

2. Update the plugin to its latest version
3. Re-register your UPS account by navigating to UPS Shipping → Registration
