Overview

While Pacejet supports sending full origin address detail along with each shipping transaction, the bestpractice recommendation is to instead use LocationSite and LocationCode values in the Origin data. When LocationSite and LocationCode values are used, Pacejet can automatically look-up multiple physical and virtual address records defined in the Pacejet Facility table, giving shippers the flexibility of managing multiple physical locations AND virtual locations for drop-ship, blind-ship, or other business rules. In addition to more flexible address handling features, using LocationSite and LocationCode allows Pacejet to automatically use multiple carrier override accounts for shipping in alignment with various accounting and business unit needs.

Using Facilities for Multiple Origin Addresses

To use the Pacejet Facility address records for multiple physical and virtual origin addresses, specify the LocationSite and LocationCode values as part of the Origin data sent to the Shipments resource. For this purpose, the LocationType should always be set to a value of “Facility”.

{
  "Location": "APITest",
  "Origin": {
    "LocationType": "Facility",
    "LocationSite": "MAIN",
    "LocationCode": "1"
   },
 "Destination": { … }

Create multiple physical or virtual Facility Address records in Pacejet to support various multiple warehouse, blind-ship, drop-ship, and other addressing business requirements.
