VALIDATION_ERROR : packagedetails : A valid package description must be provided [Solution]

When processing, you might come across the "VALIDATION_ERROR:packagedetails:A valid package description must be provided" error.

Some services require a description when packaging. This information can either be completed at an Order level as well as set by default in the Client level to avoid having to handle it at an Order level every time it is required.

Feel free to follow this video guide, or the step-by-step procedure below. 

ORDER LEVEL

To complete this information at an Order Level:

1. Access the Orders/batch screen for the order that applies to the case through any of the possible menus (after importing the order, searching on Batches screen, etc)
   
   
2. Complete the "Package description" field
   
   
3. Press Save to commit the changes
   
   

After doing so, you will be able to process the order if the rest of the information is correct.

CLIENT LEVEL

To complete this information at a Client Level:

1. Access Clients under the Maintenance dropdown
   
   
2. Select the Client for which you wish to enter the package description
   
   
3. Edit the billing account that applies to the case
   
   
   
4. Select the Carrier Options tab
   
   
5. Complete the Default Package Description field 
   
   
   
6. Press Save to commit the changes

After doing so, all the orders handled for this client under this carrier account will have such description assigned by default, and you will be able to process the order if the rest of the information is correct.
