The FedEx FileMaker Toolkit is an ideal solution for FileMaker consultants and in-house developers who want to add FedEx shipping capabilities to their FileMaker solutions.
Manage all of your FedEx domestic and international shipping right from your existing contact, order or invoice layouts. Or use a script to set all the shipping fields in the toolkit and manage your shipping from our simple user interface. Whichever method you choose, you can provide visibilty to tracking information in your layouts.
NRGship Files
NRGship FedEx consists of three database files:
NRG_Package_FedEx_Data.fp7
Interface, Shipment, Rates & Tracking tables
NRG_Package_FedEx_Blackbox.fp7
Preferences interface file and external comm to FedEx
NRG_Package_FedEx_Prefs.fp7
End-user preference Data
All data is stored in the database file NRG_Package_FedEx_Data.fp7 which open for developing relationships to the tables, but not for data modifications. The file is open to edit layouts, add new scripts and call existing scripts.
Both of these files cannot be modified due to the nature of this being a FedEx Certified product.
The data file contains the following tables:
- Ship
- RatesAndServices
- GroundClose
- Track
- Log
- InternationalCommodities
- ShipmentContent_ShipmentContentRecord
- PickupRequest
- AddressBook
Note that future updates of NRGship may modify structure, layouts and scripts in any or all database files in order to accommodate new features.
