Despatch Express Service Codes

[kulture]

Anybody use Royal Mail Despatch Express and interface with it. I need to know what the service codes are for International Contract Signed For. I have determined that International Contract Airsure is MP101.

The reason for this is that the nice kind RM has decided to withdraw the option to add airsure and international signed for on their business Overseas Zone sort or format sort. Overnight.

Their phone lines will be buzzing tomorrow.

You need to contact your sales manager as it depends on what is setup on your account.

I'm guessing this is something to do with VAT - we had a letter regarding not being able to order certain smartstamp services as of the 1st of February (eg 9am Special Delivery and some international services) until they had fixed smartstamp to use the correct VAT setup.

The new interface document is

ftp://ftp.royalmail.com/Downloads/public/ctf/rm/despatch_express_interfacing_guide.pdf

which has the new interface codes. Naturally the helpful royal mail did not post this document until after the new systems went live, so only developers with time travel could get the interface re-worked on time.
