• commercetools orders and shipping addresses are mapped to Royal Mail shipment request fields, including service codes, package weights, and delivery instructions.
• Label creation requests are triggered from fulfillment events, and returned label PDFs and tracking numbers are stored against the related shipment in commercetools.
• Service selection can be driven by rule-based mappings that translate commercetools shipping methods into Royal Mail products, with fallbacks for unsupported combinations.
• Tracking status and delivery milestones are polled or received via carrier callbacks and written back to commercetools as shipment state transitions and custom fields.
• Error responses from Royal Mail APIs are normalized, logged with correlation IDs, and linked to the originating order or fulfillment for support triage.
• Reprints and voids are handled through idempotent shipment identifiers so duplicate labels and double charges are avoided when retries occur.
