025691: Minimum Stock Weight option on DHL Parcel

1.   
Overview

KCSL have implemented a new "Minimum Parcel Weight" option to DHL Parcel.

 

2.   
Specification

New DHL courier option, “Minimum Parcel Weight”. When configured, boxes are sent to DHL with at least that weight - increasing the calculated weight when necessary. If the calculated weight is already at least that weight or higher, nothing is changed.

For auditing purposes. When the minimum parcel weight is applied to a shipment, an entry is logged in the COURIER_DATA (for invoices with no boxes) or the COURIER_DATA_BOX table (for invoices with boxes when the box weight was increased). These tables now also log the user_id and datetime of the event.
