Generally, carriers are integrated with the Parcel Carrier
Adapters when manifesting.
The Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation has
the following Parcel Carrier Adapters: Sterling Pierbridge Adaptor.
During manifest, the Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation integrates
with a carrier as follows:
- Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation checks
if carrier integration is required or not based on the configuration
present in YFS_SCAC and YFS_SCAC_EX tables. If carrier integration
is required, the Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation invokes
the relevant Sterling Parcel Carrier Adapter.
- The input and output XMLs passed between the carrier's
server and the Parcel Carrier Adapters may change based on the API
being invoked by Sterling Selling and
Fulfillment Foundation.
The Parcel Carrier Adapters create input data needed for these XMLs
based on the mapping details provided in Table 1, and sends it to the carrier's server.
Note: Note that the openManifest API does
not support any carrier integration.
