FedExShip Component

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

Allows you to generate a FedEx shipping label for any of FedEx domestic services complete with addresses and barcode, cancel a shipment or close out the FedEx Ground shipments.

Syntax

TibxFedExShip

Remarks

Generating a shipping label can be done by calling either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method. You will have to specify the package information, FedEx service to be used for shipping this package, origin and destination information, and any other special services associated with the shipment (such as Saturday Pickup, Saturday Delivery, Hold At Locations, etc.).

This component also allows you to delete packages included in the daily shipping log that have not already been tendered to FedEx by calling the CancelShipment method. The TrackingNumber parameter that identifies the shipment must be specified in the request along with the FedExAccountNumber.

When shipping with FedEx Ground, you can close out your shipments and generate a FedEx Ground Close Manifest by calling CloseGroundShipments method.

To use this component, you must have a FedEx FedExAccountNumber. You should also have already obtained a ClientId and ClientSecret; uniquely assigned to your account by FedEx.

NOTE: FedEx requires that all applications that print shipping labels pass a series of certification tests prior to being placed in production. The full version of FedEx Integrator gives you access to a certification package that makes this process very easy. The certification package is available by request. It includes all test scenarios required by FedEx for FedEx Express and Ground (international and domestic), and Home Delivery. Through the application included in the certification package, you can generate all shipping labels for selected scenarios applicable to your shipping needs with a click of a button.

Actual Base Charge applicable to this package.

For FedEx, this is normally specific to the PayorAccountNumber. It is used in the FedExShip and FedExShipIntl only. When this is used, please note that for MPS the FedEx server provides the rating information in two different ways for domestic and international shipments.

In MPS domestic shipments, the rating information is available on the package level. In this case, the properties that store the rating information: PackageBaseCharge, PackageNetCharge, PackageTotalSurcharges, and PackageTotalDiscount, indicate the rate for that particular package.

While in MPS international shipments, the rating information is available on shipment level only and it is returned in the last package response. That being said, please note that: for all packages with index=0 to PackageCount - 2, the properties that store the rating information will be set to 'N/A', and in the last package (at index=PackageCount - 1, these properties will contain the rate for the whole shipment.

For UPS, this is the "transportation charge - fuel surcharge" applicable to this package. Upon a successful response, this is returned in the server reply for each package included in the shipment if SubVersion is 1701 or greater.

This is not applicable to USPS.

For Canada Post, upon a successful response, this is returned in the server reply for the package requested.

Syntax

__property String PackageCODAmount[int PackageIdx] = { read=FPackageCODAmount, write=FSetPackageCODAmount };

Default Value

""

Remarks

The COD monetary value for the package.

For FedEx, this is applicable and required for Ground shipments only. If the shipment is using COD special service (i.e., the ShipmentSpecialServices is set to the corresponding value of COD), then the COD amount should be specified on package level for all packages that are going to use COD. If this is set, then the package will be considered as using the COD service.

Since Ground packages do not travel together and may be delivered at different times, you should add the value for the individual packages to be collected. On MPS Ground shipments, a COD return label will be generated for each package that uses COD service (stored in PackageCODLabel).

On COD Express shipments, the COD amount should be specified on shipment level and the CODTotalAmount is required instead.

For UPS, if the PackageCODAmount is set to a value other than "0.00", it indicates that COD special service is requested for that package. The collection type should be specified in the request via the PackageCODType. COD special service is not valid for return service movements. Package level COD is available for shipment from US/PR to US/PR, CA to CA, and CA to US. COD service for shipment from CA to US is not allowed for PackageType Letter/Envelope. COD special service is available for shipper's with PickupType 'Daily Pickup' or 'Drop Shipping'. Delivery Confirmation (represented by PackageSignatureType) and COD cannot coexist on a single package.

This property is not applicable to USPS packages.

Format: Two explicit decimal positions (e.g. 100.00).

This is not applicable for Canada Post.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

""

Remarks

Filename and location to save the PackageCODLabel of this package to. This is applicable for package(s) that use the COD service.

When the PackageCODFile is set to a valid path and filename, the contents of the PackageCODLabel are written to disk when either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method is called.

This filename should have the same extension defined by LabelImageType (for example, if LabelImageType is set to PDF, then PackageCODFile has to have .pdf extension).

If the filename exists, you can choose to overwrite it or not by setting the Overwrite config setting (which defaults to True).

This property is only applicable to FedEx shipments.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

Default Value

""

Remarks

Image of the COD return label for this package retrieved by FedEx Server upon a successful COD ship request.

This is the decoded binary image file of the COD return label, stored in memory when either the GetPackageLabel or the GetShipmentLabels method is called. The kind of label data returned depends on the label formatting specified in your ship request via LabelImageType. If you requested a PNG label, the data returned will be a PNG file. If you requested a thermal label, it will be a thermal label image. If the PackageCODFile is set to a valid path and filename, the label is also saved to disk in a LabelImageType format.

Since MPS Ground packages do not travel together and may be delivered at different times, a PackageCODLabel return label will be generated for each package that uses COD service.

On MPS Express packages, only one COD label will be generated and this will be returned on the last package of the MPS.

This property is only applicable to FedEx.

Indicates the package reference type and value, that associates this package (assigned by the customer).

Syntax

__property String PackageReference[int PackageIdx] = { read=FPackageReference, write=FSetPackageReference };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Indicates the package reference type and value, that associates this package (assigned by the customer).

For FedEx, this is optional to be provided in a ship request. You can enter up to 3 customer references by providing: the type(s) and value(s) in the request.

Valid values for types are:

The type and value pair(s) should be entered as a string in this format: type1:value1; type2:value2; type3:value3;. For example, if the user wants to assign 3 references to this package, the PackageReference should be set to: CN:123456; IN:123; SN:12;.

Reference information may also be used to track packages by reference.

For UPS, this is also optional to be provided in a ship request and valid if the origin/destination pair is US/US or PR/PR.

You can enter up to two customer references on package level by providing: the type(s) and value(s) in the request.

Valid values for types are:

The type and value pair(s) should be entered as a string in this format: 'type1:value1; type2:value2'. For example, if the user wants to assign 2 references to this package, the PackageReference should be set to: 'AJ:123456; TN:123'.

You can also chose to bar code the first reference number's value on the shipping label by setting the BarCodeReference to True.

Reference information may also be used to track packages by reference.

For USPS, this is only used by Endicia labels, and is used as a reference value for logs.

This is used in Canada Post to provide user-defined values, such as an internal "orderID".

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

__property DynamicArray<Byte> PackageShippingLabelB[int PackageIdx] = { read=FPackageShippingLabelB };

Default Value

""

Remarks

Image of the shipping label for this package returned by the Server upon a successful ship response.

This is the decoded binary image file of the shipping label, stored in memory upon successful ship response. The kind of label data returned depends on the label formatting specified in your ship request via LabelImageType. If you requested a GIF label, the data returned will be a GIF file. If you requested a thermal label, it will be a thermal label image. If the PackageShippingLabelFile is set to a valid path and filename, the label is also saved to disk in a LabelImageType format.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

PackageSignatureType Property (FedExShip Component)

Specifies one of the Delivery Signature Options requested for this package.

Syntax

__property TibxFedExShipPackageSignatureTypes PackageSignatureType[int PackageIdx] = { read=FPackageSignatureType, write=FSetPackageSignatureType };

enum TibxFedExShipPackageSignatureTypes {
  stServiceDefault=0,
  stAdult=1,
  stDirect=2,
  stIndirect=3,
  stNoSignatureRequired=4,
  stUSPSDeliveryConfirmation=5,
  stAdult19=6
};

Default Value

stServiceDefault

Remarks

Specifies one of the Delivery Signature Options requested for this package. Possible values are:

For FedEx Express shipments, the NoSignatureRequired option will not be allowed when the following special services are requested: Alcohol, Hold At Location or Dangerous Goods.

For residential FedEx Ground International shipments from Canada to the U.S., two valid signature options are allowed: NoSignatureRequired and Direct.

The impact of signature options fees may vary depending on your agreement with FedEx. Following are the definitions for FedEx:

• Service Default: In this case, the appropriate signature option will be selected for your shipping service. For example, if the package contains Dangerous Goods, the Direct signature option is chosen for you. The actual signature option applied to this package could be different than the signature option requested if a conflict occurred with other service features in the package. In this case, the value set in the request will be ignored.
• Indirect Signature Required: Indicates that an indirect signature is required upon delivery. This is allowed to residential addresses only. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature in one of three ways: from any person at the delivery address, from a neighbor, building manager, or other person at a neighboring address. The recipient can sign a FedEx door tag authorizing release of the package without anyone present. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Direct Signature Required: Indicates that a direct signature is required upon delivery. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature from any person at the delivery address. If no one is at the address, FedEx will reattempt delivery; Direct Signature Required overrides any recipient release that may be on file for deliveries to nonresidential addresses. This option is not available for Hold at FedEx Location shipments. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Adult Signature Required: Indicates that the adult signature is required upon delivery. In this case, FedEx obtains a signature from any person at least 21 years old (government-issued photo identification required) at the delivery address. If no one is at the address, FedEx will reattempt delivery. Adult Signature Required overrides any recipient release that may be on file for deliveries to nonresidential addresses. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.

Note: In the server reply, this option may differ from that requested value due to other characteristics of the shipment.

For UPS, when delivery confirmation is requested for a package, the PackageSignatureType should be set to a value other than 0 (stServiceDefault). The availability of this special service depends on the ServiceType. The type stIndirect is not valid for UPS packages.

Also, when using UPS Mail Innovations, delivery confirmation can be requested by setting this to stUSPSDeliveryConfirmation.

Delivery Confirmation and COD cannot coexist on a single package. Also, Delivery Confirmation option cannot be combined with the Return Services option.

For USPS, if this is not set to stServiceDefault or stNoSignatureRequired, the Signature Confirmation service will be used. Also, for Express label shipments, set this to stNoSignatureRequired to waive the signature requirements.

This does not apply for Canada Post.

The PackageIdx parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the PackageCount property.

FedEx Ground provides reliable delivery of hazardous materials in all U.S. states except Alaska and Hawaii. If you have not shipped hazardous materials with FedEx Ground before, contact your FedEx account executive first. FedEx needs to confirm that you have met government training requirements and can generate the documentation your shipments need. Additional information regarding hazardous materials shipping is provided at fedex.com/ us/services/options under the Hazardous Materials link. The Shipper's Hazardous Materials Certification report (OP-950), prints after a successful Ground close request. Please note that Hazmat shipments must be single package. If you create a multiple package (MPS) hazmat shipment, only one commodity prints on the OP-950. FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dangerous goods/Hazmat materials. This might affect service availability as well.
• Dry Ice: Indicates that this package contains dry ice. FedEx assesses a surcharge on each package containing dry ice. This might affect service availability as well.
• Priority Alert: Indicates whether the priority alert special service is requested for this package. This is applicable to domestic shipments only. A per package surcharge is associated with Priority Alert. This is applicable for FedEx First Overnight and FedEx Priority Overnight. It can be associated with: Saturday Delivery, Hold Saturday, Hold at Location, Dangerous Goods, Dry Ice or Signature Service Option. Please note that Priority Alert requires a service contract. If you are interested in signing up for Priority Alert, contact your FedEx account executive.
• Non Standard Container: Indicates whether this package type is a non standard container. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• COD: Indicates that this is a COD package. This service will affect shipping rates and service availability. This is applicable for domestic FedEx Express and Ground services, except FedEx Home Delivery premium. When shipping COD via FedEx Ground, the PackageCODAmount and PackageCODType must also be provided in the request.

For UPS, to request any of the special services offered for a particular package in a rate or ship request, you must set the PackageSpecialServices of that package to a set of valid flags.

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below:

• Additional Handling: Indicates that additional handling special service is requested for this package. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Non Standard Container: Indicates whether this package type is to be considered a large package (a non standard container). Dimensions must be 130 to 165 inches: Length + (2 x Width) + (2 x Height). This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.

Some other special services on package level, such as COD, Delivery Confirmation, Insured Value, are already implemented respectively through the PackageCODAmount and PackageCODType, PackageSignatureType, and PackageInsuredValue.

Remarks

To request any of the special services offered by FedEx in a ship request, you must set the ShipmentSpecialServices to a set of flags as listed below:

The meaning and limitations for each special service option are listed below:

• COD: Indicates that this is a COD shipment. This service will affect shipping rates and service availability. This is applicable for domestic FedEx Express and Ground services, except FedEx Home Delivery Premium. When shipping COD via FedEx Ground, the COD details must be provided on the Package level.
• Dry Ice: Indicates that the shipment contains dry ice. This might affect the shipping rates and service availability. When this service is requested (i.e., when the corresponding Dry Ice flag is contained in the ShipmentSpecialServices), then the DryIceCount and PackageDryIceWeight are required to be specified in the request (shipment level). This is allowed for FedEx Express shipments only.
• Event Notification: Indicates that event notification is requested. This might affect the service availability. If this is requested in a ship request, then the Notify collection is required to be set.
• Hold At Location: This is applicable for FedEx Express services only. Indicates that the FedEx shipment is to be held at the destination FedEx location for pickup by the recipient. The request of this special service might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability. This service is not valid with the Hold Saturday service, and when the RecipientAddressFlags is set to Residential (i.e., for residential delivery). When this service is requested (i.e., when the corresponding Hold At Location flag is contained in the ShipmentSpecialServices), then the HoldAtLocation is required to be provided in the request as well.
• Home Delivery: Indicates that the Home Delivery Premium special service is requested. This is applicable for residential delivery only (i.e., when this is present in the request, the RecipientAddressFlags is automatically set to Residential in the request). If ServiceType is set to GROUND HOME DELIVERY, the corresponding flag of Home Delivery is automatically added to the ShipmentSpecialServices. In this case, the HomeDeliveryDate, HomeDeliveryPhone, and HomeDeliveryType properties are required to be provided in the request as well. This property is applicable for FedEx Ground services only.
• Inside Delivery: Indicates that inside delivery service is requested. In this case, FedEx may move shipments to positions beyond the adjacent loading area. In doing so, FedEx will assess an inside delivery charge in addition to all other applicable charges. The adjacent loading area is defined as a delivery site that is directly accessible from the curb and is no more than 50 feet inside the outermost door. FedEx will assess an inside delivery charge when shipment breakdown is necessary to fit a shipment through a doorway. FedEx does not provide piece count or piece verification when a breakdown of a freight shipment occurs at the delivery site. Current FedEx surcharge for this option: US$0.0412 per lb./$0.0908 per kg (US$60 minimum).
• Inside Pickup: Indicates that inside pickup service is requested. In this case, FedEx may move shipments from positions beyond the adjacent loading area. In doing so, FedEx will assess an inside pickup charge in addition to all other applicable charges. The adjacent loading area is defined as a pickup site that is directly accessible from the curb and is no more than 50 feet inside the outermost door. Current FedEx surcharge for this option: US$0.0412 per lb./$0.0908 per kg (US$60 minimum).
• Pending Shipment Indicates that an email label has been requested. When this option is selected, you will need to also set the Notify property to specify the email address to send to and the message to be sent. You will also need to set the MerchantPhoneNumber and EmailLabelExpirationDate configuration settings. When this option is selected a label will not be saved to the location in PackageShippingLabelFile, as the label will now be emailed to the recipient(s) specified in NotifyEmail
• Return Shipment: Indicates that the return label is requested. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability. In this case, the RMANumber and RMAReason can be provided in the request. When this option is selected, the return label will be returned in the server response. The recipient can then apply this return label to the return package as needed and drop the package off at a FedEx drop off location. No charges are assessed until the label is used. Express and Ground return labels are interchangeable, regardless of the original shipping service. For example, you can send the original shipment using an express service, but include a Ground return label as part of your packing documents. Express/Ground Return Labels are available for FedEx First Overnight, FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx Standard Overnight, FedEx 2Day, FedEx Ground, FedEx Home Delivery, FedEx 2Day Freight, and FedEx 3Day Freight throughout the 50 United States. FedEx Express Saver and FedEx 1Day Freight services are not available. Also, Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Materials cannot be shipped. Additional service options include Saturday Service, Dry Ice Shipments, and Hold at FedEx Location. The maximum declared value is $1,000 for FedEx First Overnight, FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx Standard Overnight, and FedEx 2Day. The maximum declared value is $50,000 for FedEx 2Day Freight and FedEx 3Day Freight. The maximum declared value is $100 for FedEx Ground and FedEx Home Delivery.
• Saturday Delivery: Indicates that you request to have the shipment delivered on a Saturday. Saturday delivery service is available for an additional charge depending on the package service type and origin/destination pair. This service is available for: FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx 2day, FedEx International Priority, FedEx 1Day Freight, and FedEx 2Day Freight. The rates and service availability depend on the ship date specified in the request. If the ship date falls on Thursday or Friday and you want Saturday delivery, the ground option and some express option will not be valid.
• Saturday Pickup: Indicates that you request to have the shipment picked up on a Saturday. Saturday pickup service is available for an additional charge depending on the package service type and origin/destination pair. This service is available for: FedEx Priority Overnight, FedEx 2day, FedEx International Priority, FedEx 1Day Freight, and FedEx 2Day Freight. The rates and service availability depend on the ship date specified in the request. If the ship date falls on week day other than Saturday and you want Saturday pickup, the ground option and some express option will not be valid.
• ThirdParty Consignee: Indicates that the third party special service is requested. This might affect the shipping rates and/or service availability.
• Electronic Trade Documents: This only applies when shipping internationally. FedEx will generate and submit your trade documents specified in the ShippingDocumentTypes electronically and you no longer need to print and attach them. Note that some countries do not accept Electronic Trade Documents (ETD). For a full list of countries that support ETD you can go to http://images.fedex.com/international/pdf/FedExElectronicTradeDocuments_Coverage.pdf.

  If you also want to receive copies of the FedEx generated documents use the RequestedETDDocuments property together with the ShippingDocumentFile config to specify the files you are requesting and the location where to save them.

• Broker Select: Indicates that the broker select special service is requested. When shipping internationally, the customer might want to have their own broker to deal with the delivery (for customs purposes). To request such service, the BrokerSelect option should be set in the ShipmentSpecialServices value. This allows you to designate a specific customs broker other than FedEx (or a FedEx designated broker). This is applicable to the following international FedEx services:
  • stFedExInternationalPriority (20)
  • stFedExInternationalEconomy (21)
  • stFedExInternationalPriorityFreight (23)

  FedEx International Broker Select is a contract service.

An additional routing surcharge applies to your BSO shipments if you choose to have FedEx complete delivery after customs clearance and if your recipient and customs broker are served by different FedEx clearance points. This service is not valid with SaturdayPickup/SaturdayDelivery services. When this service is requested, then the ClearanceBrokerageType, BrokerType, BrokerContact, and BrokerAddress are required to be provided in the ship request as well.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

Data Type

String

SSLProvider Property (FedExShip Component)

This specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use.

Syntax

__property TibxFedExShipSSLProviders SSLProvider = { read=FSSLProvider, write=FSetSSLProvider };

enum TibxFedExShipSSLProviders {
  sslpAutomatic=0,
  sslpPlatform=1,
  sslpInternal=2
};

Default Value

sslpAutomatic

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic) the component will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are:

Additional Notes

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The component will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected the platform implementation is used by default. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols the internal implementation is used.

Data Type

Integer

SSLServerCertEncoded Property (FedExShip Component)

Syntax

__property String SSLServerCertEncoded = { read=FSSLServerCertEncoded };
__property DynamicArray<Byte> SSLServerCertEncodedB = { read=FSSLServerCertEncodedB };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The SSLServerCertStore and SSLServerCertSubject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When SSLServerCertEncoded is set, a search is initiated in the current SSLServerCertStore for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, SSLServerCertSubject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, SSLServerCertSubject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

Byte Array

Timeout Property (FedExShip Component)

A timeout for the component.

Syntax

__property int Timeout = { read=FTimeout, write=FSetTimeout };

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the Timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If Timeout is set to a positive value, the component will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The component will use DoEvents to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If Timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the component raises an exception.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by Timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the Timeout property is 60 seconds.

Data Type

Integer

TotalNetCharge Property (FedExShip Component)

The total net charge applied to the whole shipment (specific to the AccountNumber ).

Syntax

__property String TotalNetCharge = { read=FTotalNetCharge };

Default Value

""

Remarks

In a MPS ship request, this represents the total net charge applied to all packages contained in the shipment. When the shipment consists of a single package, this is the same as PackageNetCharge at index=0.

This property is read-only.

Data Type

String

TotalWeight Property (FedExShip Component)

Total shipment weight.

Syntax

__property String TotalWeight = { read=FTotalWeight, write=FSetTotalWeight };

Default Value

Data Type

String

TransitTime Property (FedExShip Component)

Expected number of days in transit from pickup to delivery.

Syntax

__property String TransitTime = { read=FTransitTime };

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is an estimate only. When either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method is called, the DeliveryDate will be returned in the server reply. For international shipments, this information is a limited to a number of international countries and it depends on the customs clearance times.

Possible values are: ONE_DAY, TWO_DAYS, THREE_DAYS, FOUR_DAYS, FIVE_DAYS, SIX_DAYS, SEVEN_DAYS, EIGHT_DAYS, NINE_DAYS, and UNKNOWN.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

Data Type

String

CancelPackage Method (FedExShip Component)

Cancels a single package shipment by deleting it from the shipping log.

Syntax

void __fastcall CancelPackage(String TrackingNumber);

Remarks

Cancels FedEx Express and Ground package that have not already been tendered to FedEx.

The TrackingNumber parameter, that identifies the package to be canceled and deleted from the shipping log, is the PackageTrackingNumber assigned to the package by FedEx server when either the GetPackageLabel or the GetShipmentLabels method was called.

The following properties can be set prior to calling this method:

• FedExAccountNumber (required)
• SenderCountryCode

To check the status of your cancel request the CancelledShipment config should be inspected.

CancelPickup Method (FedExShip Component)

Cancels a scheduled Carrier Pickup request.

Syntax

String __fastcall CancelPickup(String ConfirmationNumber);

Remarks

When the CancelPickup method is called, the exact data from the original SchedulePickup request must be entered.

You must enter the following information:

• ConfirmationNumber (required)
• FedExAccountNumber (required)
• CarrierType (required)
• ShipDate (required)
• Location (required for canceling an express pickup)
• SpecialInstructions (required for canceling ground pickup)

Valid CarrierType values are FDXG (FedEx Ground) or FDXE (FedEx Express).

If the information entered is valid (matches the existing record and is within the time frames available for cancellation), this method will return with no error. The return value for this method is a string containing a message from FedEx about the request to cancel the pickup, if one exists.

CancelShipment Method (FedExShip Component)

Cancels all packages within the shipment.

Syntax

void __fastcall CancelShipment(String TrackingNumber);

Remarks

Cancels FedEx Express and Ground shipments that have not already been tendered to FedEx.

The TrackingNumber parameter, that identifies the shipment to be canceled and deleted from the shipping log, is assigned by FedEx server when either the GetPackageLabel or GetShipmentLabels method was called.

The following properties can be set prior to calling this method:

• FedExAccountNumber (required)
• SenderCountryCode

To check the status of your cancel request the CancelledShipment config should be inspected.

CloseGroundShipments Method (FedExShip Component)

Closes out all FedEx Ground shipments made for the day or generates reports for the last 3 days' close requests.

Syntax

void __fastcall CloseGroundShipments();

Remarks

Closing is a function to be used for FedEx Ground shipments only. Express shipments are automatically closed and do not require you to perform a specific close operation. The Close service allows you to reconcile shipping information for your Ground shipments and print a Ground Manifest for your Ground driver.

At the end of the shipping day, you should perform the FedEx Ground End of Day Close procedure. To do so, call the CloseGroundShipments method. The Ground manifest (Manifest stored in CloseReportFile) is generated after a successful close and must be printed before your Ground shipments are tendered to FedEx. This is required to be tendered to FedEx along with your packages if they are being picked up by FedEx Ground. If you are dropping the packages off at a FedEx drop-off location, the manifest is not required.

You may continue to ship Ground packages after a Close has been performed. The Close service may be performed multiple times during your shipping day. Use the Close service to initiate the final stage of processing all shipment data submitted for the day (close of business).

A customer cannot cancel any shipments once they are closed out. However, shipments can be added to a day's shipment after a close operation has been performed and multiple closes can be performed in a day.

When this method is called, the following properties must have been set:

• FedExAuthorizationToken (required)
• FedExServer (optional)
• FedExAccountNumber (required)
• CloseRequest (required)

CloseReportType specifies the type of report. Only one type of report can be returned per Close request. If you need multiple report types you will have to issue multiple CloseGroundShipments requests.

The report will automatically be written to the file specified by CloseReportFile. These reports can be printed anytime during the shipping day for shipments that have already been closed (up to three days in the past).

Config Method (FedExShip Component)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

String __fastcall Config(String ConfigurationString);

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

GetPackageLabel Method (FedExShip Component)

Error Event (FedExShip Component)

Information about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  int ErrorCode;
  String Description;
} TibxFedExShipErrorEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExShipErrorEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExShipErrorEventParams *e);
__property TibxFedExShipErrorEvent OnError = { read=FOnError, write=FOnError };

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing.

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

Notification Event (FedExShip Component)

Notification returned by the server upon successful request (if applicable).

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TibxFedExShipNotificationEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExShipNotificationEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExShipNotificationEventParams *e);
__property TibxFedExShipNotificationEvent OnNotification = { read=FOnNotification, write=FOnNotification };

Remarks

When sending a request, the server may return with a successful reply or an error. However, even when a transaction is successful, a warning or a note might still be returned by the server. In such cases, the Notification event is fired.

Notifications returned through this event are non-fatal and shipments will still be processes, labels will still be printable, rates are still returned, etc. These notifications should be treated as informational only.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (FedExShip Component)

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String CertEncoded;
  DynamicArray<Byte> CertEncodedB;
  String CertSubject;
  String CertIssuer;

__property TibxFedExShipSSLServerAuthenticationEvent OnSSLServerAuthentication = { read=FOnSSLServerAuthentication, write=FOnSSLServerAuthentication };

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

SSLStatus Event (FedExShip Component)

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

typedef struct {
  String Message;
} TibxFedExShipSSLStatusEventParams;
typedef void __fastcall (__closure *TibxFedExShipSSLStatusEvent)(System::TObject* Sender, TibxFedExShipSSLStatusEventParams *e);
