FedEx International Priority DirectDistribution® is a service that helps you manage multiple-package shipments from a single origin location to multiple addresses in one destination country. FedEx clears your shipment through Customs as a single consolidated shipment and after Customs clearance, delivers to individual recipients within the country.
This chapter introduces FedEx International Priority DirectDistribution® (IPD), FedEx International Economy DirectDistribution℠ (IED) and FedEx International Priority DirectDistribution Freight® (IDF) and provides instructions for configuring these services on your system. You will also find information about FedEx Ship Manager® Server (FSMS) transaction workflow and rules and how to code Open Ship transactions for IPD/IED/IDF shipments. Refer IPD/IED/IDF Transaction Samples for example templates for integrating FSMS transactions within your applications.
