Submission Failures

 

Throughout the use of GeMMA (Importing, Preparing and Submitting), various validation checks take place to insure that all is in order prior to allowing a submission. These range from checking there is a valid connection to eMHS and UK Mail endpoints, to checking that the SCID and Participants are correct. However, it is possible for things to go wrong, specifically during submission. Below is a table of all response codes from Royal Mail and UK Mail web services , however, as mentioned GeMMA validates all imported Mailing Cells prior to submission therefore most of the Response Codes should be impossible to invoke.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Should GeMMA encounter an issue during submission the submission will be cancelled and a report will be displayed showing the Response Code and Description, for example

 

 

In this example eMHS has not allowed the upload and has returned a response code of 19 which means the SCID used does not allow the product selected. During User Acceptance Testing this response was the most common cause of a submission failure as users were submitting DSA Mailing Cells using SCID's that should only have been used for Royal Mail Retail sort, and vice versa.
