OnBeforePostPacking

Use this event to

Update external setup tables prior to posting

Description

You may use this event to update setup values in the 3rd party Shipping App prior to posting.   Transactional data is better handled in the OnPostPackingOnBeforePostWarehouseShipment event.

Each 3rd party Shipping App being integrated into "Tasklet Pack and Ship" must provide a unique "Shipping Provider Id" identifying this exact "ShippingProvider" Connector App integration.

The "Shipping Provider Id" is used to separate imported master data from various 3rd party Shipping Apps that may otherwise use conflicting codes (i.e. two implementations both using Package Type = 'BOX'). 
Tasklet are using Id's "SHIPIT365" and "LOGTRADE" for its two out-of-the-box ShippingProvider implementations.
