Rate Shop Interface (MAWM)

A new interface has been developed to integrate with Metapack Delivery Manager for the Rate Shop service.

This interface is invoked when orders with a Rate Shop Ship Via are populated. The Metapack Rate Shop response returns a list of available services. The first service in the response is the cheapest, or has otherwise been prioritised based on the allocation setup in Delivery Manager. This first service is the one stored by MAWM.

The Metapack API used is findDeliveryOptionsWithBookingCode.

Note

The Rate Shop call does not create a shipment in Metapack Delivery Manager.

Below is the list of fields included in the response from Metapack for a Rate Shop call:
