updateConsignments

This method is used to update one or more existing, unallocated consignments.

Note

You need to resubmit the mandatory information for each consignment, in addition to anything that you have added or modified.

It is assumed that you have worked through Creating your first Request to a Service and are familiar with the Properties needed to Call or Create a Consignment.

How to submit a request

Proceed as follows:

  1. If you have not already done so, open a new project using the WSDL ConsignmentService.xml.

  2. Create a new request under updateConsignments.

  3. Enter the authorisation for the request.

  4. Specify the code(s) of the existing consignment(s).

  5. As a minimum, specify the following for each consignment, inclusive of any amendments:

    1. The consignmentLevelDetailsFlag.

    2. The consignmentValue if the consignmentLevelDetailsFlag is set to true. However, if this flag is set to false, then the parcelValue is required instead (refer to the Parcels Array).

    3. The consignmentWeight if the consignmentLevelDetailsFlag is set to true. However, if this flag is set to false, then the parcelWeight is required instead (refer to the Parcels Array).

    4. The maxDimension if the consignmentLevelDetailsFlag is set to true. However, if this flag is set to false, then it is calculated automatically from the dimensions of each parcel (refer to the Parcels Array).

    5. The orderNumber.

    6. The parcelCount.

    7. 'n' items in the Parcels Array if 'n' is the parcelCount.

    8. The recipientAddress.

    9. The recipientName.

    10. The senderAddress.

    11. The senderCode.

    12. The senderName.

  6. Click Arrow.png to submit the request.

Example Request

In the following example, we have added a Dangerous Goods product to the first consignment, and an additional parcel to the second consignment:
