We just went live a few weeks ago, and I have been too buried to implement any kind of official Tracking Number distribution through Manifest. I’m just trying to throw together a quick stop-gap to make sure our customers get their Tracking Numbers after we ship their order.
I threw the following together in about 15 minutes:
*I wrote a BAQ that pulls Tracking Numbers and OTS Email Addresses for the Packs marked Shipped/Invoiced.
*I created a BAQ Report that pulls the above BAQ and filters based on the Ship Date provided by the prompted user.
*I added Breaking/Routing to the BAQ Report’s Report Style and broke on the Tracking Number and did some Conditions that check for valid email addresses, switches Tracking URL based on Ship Via, etc…
Everything works great when I select a Ship Date and print preview the BAQ Report. I currently have it emailing myself all the Tracking Numbers, and I’m getting the right number of emails and all the information looks to be in order. I’m just one step from replacing my email address with the customer’s, and this solution will be good enough until I can do something more official with Manifest.
The problem is it generates and attaches a PDF based on the BAQ Report Style, but I have all the pertinent information for the customer in the body of the email. I don’t need any attachments going to the customer. Is there a way to turn it off?
Any thoughts, MacGyver solutions, or ideas would be appreciated, thanks!
