Editing Piece-Level Information
To Edit information for any piece of an Open Shipment, including the Master, the following fields are
required:
• 541 – position 5 set to Y (NNNNYNNNN)
• 29 – the tracking number of the piece to be edited
• 1274 – Service Type
• Pass in the field number to edit with the new value.
To determine which fields may be edited at the piece level, see the “Open Ship Table” later in this
chapter.
Deleting a Piece
To Delete a piece of an Open Shipment before the shipment has been Confirmed, the following pieces
are required:
• 541 – position 7 set to Y (NNNNNNYNN)
• 542 – set to the unique number passed in the Create
• 29 – the tracking number of the piece to delete
• 1274 – Service Type
To Delete a piece after the shipment has been Confirmed, use the 023 Transaction as you would for any
non-Open Ship package.
Confirming a Piece and Printing a Label
For U.S. Domestic shipments only, you may Confirm an individual piece of an Open Shipment and print
the label before Confirming the whole shipment by sending a Piece Confirm transaction. The following
fields are required:
• 541 – position 9 set to Y (NNNNNNNNY)
• Do NOT pass in field 542 – if you do, the entire shipment is Confirmed.
• 29 – the tracking number of the piece for which you want to print the label
• Enter required printer information into fields 187, 537, and 1282 if not using the default configuration
printer.
NOTE:
An Open Shipment must have at least one piece at all times prior to Confirm. If a piece is
confirmed and is the only piece in the shipment, the entire shipment is Confirmed and you can
not add any more pieces to the shiment. To print and Confirm pieces and maintain the ability to
add more pieces, perform the following recommended procedure:
Create shipment (and Add 1), Add 2, Confirm 1, Add 3, Confirm 2, Add 4, Confirm 3, Add X,
Confirm X…Confirm Shipment
