How to Use Carrier Settings with FedEx


Overview

Carrier Settings lets Pacejet administrators define carrier-specific defaults and special behaviors beyond the basic options configured during initial carrier setup. Use Carrier Settings when you need to store or control details such as account numbers, package types, reference field mappings, carrier pickup times, and other settings that affect how a carrier is used in shipping workflows.

Carrier Settings Reference

The following carrier settings are commonly used with the Estes integration. Use this table as a quick reference when configuring default package behavior, pickup windows, delivery windows, document output, and hazardous materials contact information.

Use these values only when they match the shipper's configuration and business process. Time-based settings are especially important when scheduling pickups or communicating delivery availability windows.

Change One Rate for a Facility by setting this value for a specific combination of Site and Facility codes.

When These Settings are Most Useful

  • FedEx Rate Display Options: Use SELECTED_RATES_EXCLUDING_F1R to change OneRate behavior for specific use-cases. For example, use a facility for a customer to support for that customer.
