Sending data to CAS is mostly done by sending messages to the ingestion API. This will allow you to create new customs shipments, extend the master data etc.

Asynchronous processing

Messages are processed in the background asynchronously. This means that the response code for success indicates the acceptance for processing, not that all validations are successful.

Feedback like status changes (invalid, released, ...) are communicated through web hooks (for machines) or email alerts (for humans)

Availability

Highly available, even during maintenance windows. However, maintenance windows will still slow down the processing of messages sent to CAS.

Ingestion API endpoints

By using the following endpoints you can send data to CAS. These endpoints will execute some basic checks like the format & the structure of the data in real time, however the processing will be executed asynchronously.

• ArticleDataItem (xsd) Create or update articles in the master data
• BusinessPartners (xsd) Create or update business partners in the master data.
• CertificateOfOrigin (xsd) Request a certificate of origin based on a declaration
• CustomsShipment (xsd) Create a customs shipment to start a customs flow.
• Formula (xsd) Create a formula in master data that describes production of goods used by some special procedures
• MaterialList (xsd) Create a material list of products in the master data used by some special procedures
• MaterialListInvalidationRequest (xsd) Sometimes a material lists need to be invalidated
• Movement (xsd) Used to ingest stock movements to keep logistics and customs stocks in sync within the special procedures module
• Shipment (xsd) Used to create a shipment which can be used as a source for creating customs shipments. Typically, used as a preparation for a flow of manual enrichment and validation
