CanadaPostShip Component

Properties   Methods   Events   Configuration Settings   Errors  

Allows you to generate domestic labels using Canada Post.

Syntax

nsoftware.InShip.Canadapostship

Remarks

Generating a shipping label can be done by calling the GetPackageLabel method. You will need to specify the package details, the Canada Post service to be used for shipping the package, the origin and destination information, and any other special services that should be associated with the shipment (such as COD, Return Shipment, Deliver to Post Office, etc.).

In order to print a label and manifest to be tendered to a Canada Post driver, you must:

  1. Assign each shipment a GroupId and then call GetPackageLabel for each package in the shipment.
  2. Call TransmitShipments with the GroupId for the shipment.
  3. Call GetManifest for each manifest in ManifestDetails.

Note that this only applies when submitting a contract shipment (ie. ContractId is set).

If you wish to cancel a package before you call TransmitShipments for that shipment, you can call CancelShipment and the package will be voided.

In order to use this component you will need to have a CanadaPost AccountNumber, which is your customer number. You will also need to have signed up for the Developer Program and obtained a UserId and Password.
