Enhanced Carrier Account Update Functionality

Overview

AfterShip Shipping now supports users to easily update their carrier accounts with the latest integration version without deleting and recreating them. Our system supports different versions of carrier integrations to work simultaneously, allowing them the flexibility to update them at their convenience without having to reconfigure other settings.
