Important International Consolidation Module Processing Notes

Parcels and shipments to different countries can be entered at any time throughout the day.  Consolidation occurs at the end of the day when the Document Box is prepared for each consolidated movement.

The Master Commercial Invoice is a required single invoice for all items within a UPS World Ease movement.  The UPS World Ease service requires that all commercial items are entered directly into CPS.  This can be done manually or by using the Worldwide Import Module.  CPS can also prepare individual commercial invoices for each individual shipment and/or parcel as they are entered, if required.

The optional Worldwide Import Module for CPS will allow the importing of complete international shipment data including both customer address information and commercial invoice items.

The optional International Consolidation Module is available for CPS Platinum users only.
