Manifest Property

Image of the manifest for FedEx Ground shipment activity.

Syntax

 fedexship.getManifest([callback])

Default Value

""

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getManifest([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, buffer){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'buffer' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setManifest([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This identifies the buffer containing the ASCII data contents of the manifest report for FedEx Ground shipments.

When the CloseGroundShipments method is called, the Manifest is returned when the CloseTrackingNumber is present in the request and Manifest indicates the manifest containing that tracking number, or when the CloseReportType is set to 1 (Manifest). In the last case, this will indicate all manifests from the last 3 days' Closes.

The report is generated in TXT format and saved to disk under CloseReportFile. The manifest is essential at the time of pickup.

This property is applicable for FedEx Ground services only.

This property is read-only.
