Allow SSU Create and Update with Shipment via REST

This Optional Feature, ALLOW SSU CREATE AND UPDATE WITH SHIPMENT VIA REST, when enabled allows the shipment ship unit child resource to be created or updated when you create or update a shipment.  This feature enables the logic used to support the proper processing required to properly manage the shipment create or update as a single transaction.

This optional feature allows for backward compatibility and provides a safeguard for any unanticipated challenges.

Steps to Enable

If you need to change the Opt In state for this feature:

  • Go to the Optional Feature UI - Configuration and Administration > Property Management > Optional Features.

NOTE: Only the DBA.ADMIN user can access and use the Optional Features page.

  • Select the Allow SSU Create and Update with Shipment Via REST feature.
  • Run the desired Action for the feature - Opt In or Opt Out.

Tips And Considerations

This feature is one of several features that haven been provided as part of this update to better support the processing of the shipment resource/SAW.  The set of features includes:

  1. Allow SSU Create and Update with Shipment via REST - optional feature  
  2. Shipment Ship Unit Create with Business Number Generator
  3. REST - Shipment with Shipment Ship Units in one Transaction

The set of features simplifies the process for creating a shipment/SAW - we recommend enabling and taking advantage of the new capabilities provided.
