Using Parcelforce web services with the TaskCentre Web Service Connector Tool
TaskCentre’s Web Service Connector Tool can be used to automate calls to ParcelForce’s expressLink web service. This web service enables the automation of a range of tasks including package shipment and label printing. The full list of operations available is as follows:
· Create shipment · Return shipment · Print label · Print document · Create manifest · Print manifest Shipment tracking is not part of the web service, but ParcelForce will, on request, automatically push tracking data in a flat file format to a directory on a remote FTP server, which TaskCentre can retrieve and utilise. More information about retrieving and using this data can be found later in this article. ParcelForce also provide the browser-based WDM Online solution, which allows you to view and manage shipments that have been created using the web service.
