This method allows you to assign a new manifest group code to an existing carton, in readiness for manifesting (e.g. via createManifest or createManifestForFutureDespatch).
Note
This topic assumes that your OMS or WMS operates on carton values, as opposed to consignment codes.
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:
-
If you have not already done so, open a new project using the WSDL
ConsignmentService.xml
. -
Create a new request under
scanCartonToManifestGroup
, -
Enter the authorisation for the request.
-
Specify the following:
-
The cartonId (which can be associated with more than one parcel).
-
The manifest group code.
-
-
Click
to submit the request.
