Abstract
Methods and systems for supporting the production of shipping labels are provided. Example embodiments provide a Shipment Management System ('SMS'), which facilitates the production of shipping labels. The SMS may be configured to generate a shipping uniform resource identifier ('URI') that identifies a shipping protocol and includes shipment information and post-back information. The shipping URI may be provided to a shipping label module configured to produce a shipping label in accordance with the shipping protocol by outputting a shipping label based on the shipment information, and automatically posting information about the producing of the shipping label to a code module identified by the post-back information. In some embodiments, the actions of the SLPS may be initiated by a Web browser in response to a user selection of a shipping URI. This abstract should not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
