Add the eBay Company

To ship your eBay Transactions, you have to connect your eBay company to StarShip. You can add one or multiple eCommerce accounts to ship against in StarShip. However, the same Seller ID can only be used once per StarShip Location; the same Seller ID can be added if using a different Location.

1. In StarShip, select Setup > Source Interface > eCommerce. If eCommerce isn't listed there, first select Use Source > eCommerce.
2. Click My Companies.
3. If you are adding a new company, click the Add Company button. If you want to add the eBay interface to an existing company, select the company and click the Edit Company button.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
4. Type in the Company Name and click the " + " button to add an eBay account.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
5. Select eBay from the eCommerce Provider drop-down field.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
6. Enter your eBay User ID in the Seller ID field and click the "here" link.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
7. The eBay Sign In page is launched in your Internet browser. Your eBay ID may already be filled in for you. If not, enter it in the field provided. Enter your Password and click the Sign In button.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
8. On the StarShip Authorization page, review the Consent Agreement. Click Agree to allow StarShip access to your eBay account information.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
9. You may now close the browser window to return to the StarShip Client.
10. Click the Request Access Token button. The token you create needs to be renewed every 18 months. Seven days before the expiration date, StarShip will prompt you to renew the token.
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
11. A green check mark appears when token retrieval is successful. Click the Enabled check box and click OK. The company is added to your My Companies list.
    Notes about the Enable check box :
    
    * If you add the company but don't enable it, the Document field drop-down list will be blank when StarShip is set to this company.
    * Seasonal Sellers : You can uncheck this box and disable the company during the time when you are not shipping with eCommerce so that StarShip uses less resources on your PC.
