update

This method allows you to update specific numeric and text properties for an existing, unallocated consignment, provided that it is defined at a consignment, rather than a parcel, level (i.e. its consignmentLevelDetailsFlag is set to true).

Note

You can do this without having to redefine the entire consignment (as you do with updateConsignments.

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 update.

  3. Enter the authorisation for the request.

  4. Specify the code of the existing consignment.

  5. Specify the properties that you want to update in the consignment. The names that you use to define the properties are those used in the Delivery Manager CONSIGNMENT table.

    Note

    For the syntax and some suggested properties that you might want to modify, refer to the example request below.

  6. Click Arrow.png to submit the request.

Example Request

In the following example, we have amended some basic consignment-level properties, and added some special delivery instructions and a manifest group code:
