During Create Confirm Shipment (in one short) - Ship Mode and Carrier Type values for a shipment are blanked out

Troubleshooting


Problem

During Create Confirm Shipment (in one short) - Ship Mode and Carrier Type values for a shipment are blanked out

Symptom

Shipment has four carrier related attributes namely SCAC, Carrier Service Code, Ship Mode and Carrier Type. Even is all these four attributes are passed (or updated through customization) while creating and confirming shipments (by passing the flag CreateAndConfirm = Y) the values of Ship Mode and Carrier Type will be blank.

Cause:
The columns 'ShipMode' and 'CarrierType' in the table YFS_SCAC_AND_SERVICE are de-normalized. These two columns are populated based on the values passed in ScacAndService attribute of the shipment. If ScacAndService is not passed for the shipment; then both Ship Mode, Carrier Type values will be blanked as well even if they are passed.

Error Message

No specific error message; just the values passed for Ship Mode and Carrier Type would be blank.

Resolving The Problem

So in order to populate these two columns Ship Mode and Carrier Type either:

1. Pass ScacAndSerivice to the shipment during create and confirm shipment in one short or

2. First create a shipment by passing the values of SCAC, Carrier service code without confirming the shipment. Then update the ship mode, carrier type values followed by confirmShipment.
