METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PRODUCING SHIPPING LABELS

Methods and systems for producing shipping labels are provided. Example embodiments provide a Shipping Label Production System (“SLPS”), which produces shipping labels based on a shipping uniform resource identifier (“URI”) that identifies a shipping protocol and includes shipment information and post-back information. The SLPS may be configured to produce, in accordance with the shipping protocol, a shipping label by outputting a shipping label based on the shipment information, and automatically posting information about the producing of the shipping label to a code module identified by the post-back information. In some embodiments, the actions of the SLPS may be initiated by a Web browser in response to a user selection of a shipping URI.
