Online Transactions
FSMS supports the following Online transactions:
1. 200/300 Dispatch Request/Reply: The 200 transaction is used to schedule pickups for FedEx
Express or FedEx Ground shipments for those customers without a scheduled pickup time.
(Available
upon request. Please contact your local Sales or Automation Representative.)
2. 202/302 Cancel Dispatch Request/Reply: Use this transaction when you need to cancel a
previously scheduled pickup for FedEx Express or FedEx Ground.
(Available upon request. Please
contact your local Sales or Automation Representative.)
3. 403/503 Tracking Request/Reply: The 403 transaction is used to obtain real time tracking
information for FedEx Express, FedEx Ground or FedEx Home Delivery. This transaction handles
tracking numbers individually. Batch tracking is not an option with this solution. You may also track by
using a reference number.
4. 410/510 Drop Off Locator Request/Reply: The 410 transaction is used to obtain the 4 nearest drop-
off locations based on the origin address for both FedEx Express and FedEx Ground.
5. 415/515 Address Verification Request/Reply: The 415 transaction is used to validate an address
down to the street level. Results of this transaction are not guaranteed to be valid service areas for
FedEx Express or FedEx Ground.
(Available upon request. Please contact your local Sales or
Automation Representative.)
6. 033/133 Cancel E-Mail Label Request/Reply: This transaction cancels an E-mail Label Request.
This transaction will be invalid if the customer has already generated the label.
7. 044/144 Ground Call Tag Request/Reply: The 044 transaction is used for merchants that need to
schedule a FedEx Ground pickup from a return shipper. The information for this shipment is sent to
the local FedEx Ground station. The label is created at the station and sent with the courier to be
used at pickup time.
8. 045/145 Ground Call Tag Cancel Request/Reply: The 045 transaction is used when needing to
cancel a previous Ground Call Tag Request.
9. 046/146 Express Call Tag Request/Reply: The 046 transaction is used for merchants that need to
schedule a FedEx Express pickup from a return shipper. The information is sent directly to the FedEx
Express courier. The courier then has the ability to produce the label at the time of pickup.
10. 047/147 Express Call Tag Cancel Request/Reply: The 047 transaction is used to cancel a
previously scheduled Express Tag Request.
Offline Transactions
FSMS supports the following Offline or Local transactions:
1. 004/104 – Assign Next Tracking Number Request/Reply: FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and
FedEx Home Delivery tracking numbers will be assigned by the server at the time a shipment
Request is submitted with the 020 transaction, or they can be requested in advance, if needed, using
the 004 transaction. The 004 transaction provides the ability to request and receive a tracking number
that can then be ‘pre-assigned’ in the 020 shipping transaction. This is useful if a tracking number
is needed prior to a shipment being prepared. The 104 Reply will contain the requested tracking
number and also the Form ID required for FedEx Express shipments.
2. 007/107 – End-of-Day Close Request/Reply: The 007 transaction is used to perform an End-of-Day
Close function or to Request the status of the Close. A Close Request will cause the server to upload
all package and revenue data to FedEx and will generate End-of-Day reports. A Close status Request
will return the status of the Close Request but will not cause a Close. A Close can be performed on
FedEx Express, FedEx Ground/Home Delivery or both simultaneously. This transaction is
REQUIRED to be performed daily.
