We want to keep you up to date as we release new features and update ShipStation's functionality. This release information focuses on what's new and what's changed in ShipStation's new layout. To review a summary of how the new layout differs from ShipStation Legacy, please review the Moving from ShipStation Legacy to the New Layout help article.
We've enhanced several features you may already be using in ShipStation. These enhancements range from simple interface design (as with the Rate Calculator) to new processes to accomplish old tasks (as with splitting and combining orders).
Read through the updates to get an idea of what this updated functionality includes. Each section will include a link to the full documentation about that feature, in case you want to learn all the details.
You can now specify a contact when you schedule pickups in ShipStation. The Contact information includes name, email, phone number, and any location notes the driver will need to find the pickup location.
You can now map eBay orders from Pending_cancellation to ShipStation's On Hold status. See the Additional Features for the eBay Integration section of the eBay article for details.

ShipStation will automatically add the order item SKU into the SKU field when you choose to Create declarations from order items in your International Settings.
Accounts in all countries can now add save their various Tax IDs to ShipStation and apply them to orders using Automation Rules.
