Hazardous Attribute Processing in XML
Answer
Hazardous Attribute Processing in XML
Parcel shippers can use Order XML to submit HazardousMaterial processing attributes to Sterling TMS.
Inthe Order XML send the attributes as user-defined references withinthe shipping unit loop:
- Specify the attribute in the <Type> tag.
- Enter the value for each attribute in the <ID> tag.
Sterling TMS usesthe following process to map the user-defined references in the XMLto the fields on the Hazardous Materials Handling Information page.
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| HFLG | Sets the Hazardous flagto checked if the <ID> tag is set to Y. |
| UQ | Populates the Identification Number withthe value in the <ID> tag. |
| HNAM | Populates the Proper Shipping Name withthe value in the <ID> tag. |
| HCLS | Populates the Hazardous Class withthe value in the <ID> tag. |
| HPKG | Populates the Packing Group withthe value in the <ID> tag. |
| HACS | Selects the Accessible checkbox if the <ID> tag is set to Y. |
The following XML example shows the user-defined referencefor setting the HFLG flag to Y.
