UPS Label Custom Reference remove prefix

I think you just need to remove the prefixes here I think:

      row.CustomRefNbr1 = "Purchase No.:" + order.CustomerOrderNbr;
      row.CustomRefNbr2 = "Invoice No.:" + row.ShipmentNbr;

Becomes:

      row.CustomRefNbr1 = order.CustomerOrderNbr;
      row.CustomRefNbr2 = row.ShipmentNbr;

Unless I’m missing something.

The training materials are fairly well done so I’d recommend working your way through them. I didn’t start on my Acumatica journey as a C# developer, either. My recommendation (because this is how my brain works) is to print out the documentation and then write notes on it so that as you figure out the bits and pieces you can really dissect the code.

In the UPS rest api under packages there is “ReferenceNumber” using the codes PO and IK I get the data I want purchase and invoice number

Attached is an image when I generate the label using their API directly:

Is there rest code in acumatica I could edit(customize) to add these package reference numbers?

    protected function createPayload(Shipment $shipment): array

            ],

I was poking around the acumatica source code and found the PX.UpsRestCarrier.dll

I used some software called dnSpy to poke around it.

Could I potentially get someone to modify the dll to change the Code from “01” and “02” to “PO” and “IK”

The code is under their CreateShipmentRequest function which generates the request body to the ups rest api endpoint.

I don’t even know if I’d be able to integrate the new dll back into acumatica or if this is against their terms.
