I get status INVALID on shipping labels
When you are mapping a Shopify shipping option (for instance Standard Shipping) to a carrier service (for instance DHL Express) then there are several values necessary to make the label VALID, and those values are obviously not set. So map your Shopify shipping option to a Unifaun Printing Favorite to get a VALID label. You find video guide and written PDF instruction on our website.
