Track & Trace for Printed Labels
Information from the customer printed label is stored in your customer service database and used to generate a URL that calls our Track & Trace engine and returns a formatted result page.
1. Gather Required Information
The information required from the customer printed label comprises of two fields:
Field | Explanation | Type | Size |
---|---|---|---|
Customer Identifier | A code to uniquely identify the customer that generated the customer printed label for the consignment. | Character | 8 |
Consignment Identifier | The customer's internally-generated unique identifier for the consignment. | Character | 12 |
2. Generate the URL
The URL (web address) to call the Track and Trace engine must be constructed as follows:
http://www.posthaste.co.nz/phl/servlet/TAndTServlet?page=1&customer_number=xxxxxxxx&
consignment_id=cccccccccccc&request_id=3
- Replace the string xxxxxxxx with the actual customer identifier
- Replace the string cccccccccccc with the actual Consignment Identifier
- The result page is returned as a plain HTML response without frames.
