Ship with Walmart is a shipping carrier available inside Descartes ShipRush. Setting it up is a two-part process: you first connect your Walmart web store, then you add Ship with Walmart as a carrier account.
The Walmart web store connection is what authorizes ShipRush against Walmart. It collects the tokens used by both the web store (order import) and the Ship with Walmart carrier (label creation). You cannot add the Ship with Walmart carrier before the web store is connected.
If you do not have a ShipRush account yet, launch ShipRush and complete the setup wizard. Create a ShipRush account on the Customer Information page. You can complete the web store and carrier setup during the ShipRush sign-up, or later through Settings as described below. Both result in a working Ship with Walmart connection.
Walmart Web Store Connection
-
On the ShipRush Shipments page, click Settings at the bottom of the left navigation panel.
-
At the top of the Settings page, click Add Web Store.
-
The Web Store Configuration page displays tiles for the most common platforms. Walmart is not one of the tiles. From the dropdown, select Walmart, then click NEXT.
-
On the Walmart Seller Information page, two optional settings are available. If you select either one, you must complete the older ClientID and ClientSecret registration, because Walmart does not support OAuth for these scenarios yet.
I am a DSV Seller: Select this if you are a Drop Ship Vendor. Selecting it enables the Walmart Supplier Number (Vendor Id) field, which then becomes required.
I am using Canadian Walmart: Select this if you have a Canadian Walmart web store.
Click I AM READY.
-
Read the setup instructions and have your Walmart credentials ready to complete the Walmart OAuth.
-
ShipRush and Walmart exchange authorization so that ShipRush can act on your behalf. Follow the prompts through to the end.
-
After you authorize Walmart, you are redirected to ShipRush, where you can finish the setup.
Ship with Walmart Carrier Account
-
Return to Settings and click Add Carrier Account.
-
The Carrier Configuration page displays tiles and a dropdown. From the dropdown, select Ship With Walmart. Review the Total Shipping Protection options on this page, then click NEXT.
The carrier entry is named Ship With Walmart. Do not confuse it with the Walmart web store entry you selected in the Walmart Web Store Connection section.
-
On the Ship With Walmart Shipper Information page, complete your shipping address. All fields marked with an asterisk are required:
Company
Name
Address line 1 (Address line 2 is optional)
City, State, Zip/Postal Code, Country
Phone
Email
Click NEXT.
-
On the Printer: Shipping Label page, choose your label printer settings, then continue.
-
A confirmation page displays "You Have Successfully Set-up Your Ship With Walmart Account". Click one of the following:
CONFIGURE ANOTHER CARRIER: Adds another carrier account now.
GO BACK TO SETTINGS: Returns to Settings.
Ship with Walmart Account Settings
Your Ship With Walmart account now displays in the left navigation panel of Settings, under SHIP WITH WALMART, with the following sub-sections:
Printer: Shipping Label
Rate Shopping
Mark Up Rates
Account: Ship With Walmart: Shipment Defaults, Advanced, Email, Mark Up Rates
From the Account page you can set the account nickname, make it the global default or the default Ship With Walmart account, enable rate shopping, configure address validation, and set clipboard behavior for tracking numbers.
Once your settings are correct, Ship With Walmart is available as a shipping account when you create shipments.
