In this Topic: Show
The View or Void FedEx Shipments function, found on the Shipping & Fulfillment tab of the Maintenance Menu, opens the FedExShipments: Form, where the user can void a shipping label, print a ground manifest, package pickup receipt, or reprint any shipping documents that contain a tracking number.
How far back the program will allow the user to reprint documents is based on the value specified in system parameter ShippingDocumentRetentionDays. The default setting of this parameter is 30 days, but it can be set anywhere between 1 to 60 days.
The default view of this screen is to show shipments processed on the current date, however, it is possible to alter the data that is displayed here by using the fields at the top of the screen (Starting Date, Order Number or Tracking Number).
