Abstract

Systems and methods providing an itinerant processing methodology wherein one or more processes, functions, etc. may be performed as an item to be shipped is transported from a shipper to an intermediary processing provider or other shipment processing point. For example, embodiments may comprise an itinerant prepay process in which international fees may be collected prior to the items entering the jurisdiction in which the international fees become due, an itinerant change process to facilitate making changes, such as to change a delivery address, add, change, or remove special service selections, and/or an itinerant business procedure process, such as a fraud detection process, during the time in which an item is transported from a shipper to a shipment processing point. Changes to the shipment, such as to cancel or abort the shipment, change a shipping service, etc., may thus be made after shipment of the item has been initiated.
