Re: DHL/UPS integration
Thanks for the insight Rob. Good luck. Date: Tue, 26 Nov 2013 11:51:16 -0500 From: robert.schick...@compass-usa.com Subject: Re: DHL/UPS integration To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG I am currently working on a web service integration with UPS, they do provide shipping api's. I have created WSDLs that I can successfully submit to UPS and get valid returns with cost, tracking # and label (in base64 text string) which I can decode and display the label in a view field, and I can create a hyperlink for tracking in my Remedy form. There is s 2 step process Shipconfirm and ShipAccept (submit data get rate returned Accept proposed rate) , and a single step ProcessShipment. You can find their resources here: https://www.ups.com/upsdeveloperkit/downloadresource?loc=en_US We had to use a WSDL:merge utility to combine the base WSDL and associated xsd files into a single WSDL file. My issue is that all this works when testing with SOAP UI. When I load the WSDL in Remedy web service, I can map my input fields to the appropriate elements and submit, but Remedy does not load the WSDL with the proper namespaces within the WSDL, the header section is displayed but there is no body tag and UPS rejects the submission with 'error client data' or 'xml not well formed' It seems Remedy does not interperet the WSDL file the same way most of the xml/soap tools do. If anyone has any experience/success merging or flattening WSDL and multiple XSD file any advice would be appreciated.

Re: DHL/UPS integration
I wouldn't be surprised if the shipping companies had web services to deal with this kind of need. You'd have to track down their technical people to get specs and then stay up to speed as they fix bugs and add features, but those are the usual costs of integration and easy to explain to your sponsor. -al -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of rdg em Sent: Monday, November 25, 2013 4:25 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: DHL/UPS integration ** Hello ARList, Has anyone integrated ARS with DHL or UPS shippers? The goal would be to have a form in ARS take shipping information from a typical user pushing it to UPS creating a shipping request that could be printed by the internal shipping department. What I'm curious to know is would custom software need to be created outside standard workflow using Developer Studio? thank you!
