[INFO] about "doManifest"

**This is just an info to @Petschko **

I read here: https://github.com/Petschko/dhl-php-sdk/blob/a78ea297246a18c280902ec5c78cc60a4858025f/examples/getting-started.md#domanifest

I personally don't know for what is this for, but it works!

I just run about this documentation:

deleteShipmentOrder
Mit dieser Operation werden zuvor angelegte Sendungen storniert.

Die Stornierung bereits erstellter Sendung ist nur vor dem Tagesabschluss möglich.

Ein Tagesabschluss erfolgt automatisch durch das System ab 18:00 eines jeden Tages oder durch die Operation "doManifest".

Die Anfrage- bzw. Antwortparameter werden bei den IO-Referenzen erläutert und in Form eines Beispiels dargestellt.

So as far i understand this: you can create shipments|labels and delete them again. If you delete the label before the daily completion (In german "Tagesabschluss") then you wont have to pay for it.

The daily completion will be done every day at 18 pm. actually it should be 17:10 pm So to complete(?) all current labels manually you could request doManifest.


BTW: UPS handles this better imo.

Cancel Shipment API can:
 allow a user to cancel a forward shipment up to 28 days after the initial processing of the shipment.
 allow a user to cancel a return shipment until 2 a.m. Eastern Time the following night.

You can define the time of the automatic daily manifest in the Geschäftskundenportal.

Optionally you can do the manifest via API - for example right after your last label for this day was printed.

DHL will check the manifest against the actually scanned labels for their billing process.

I'm currently implementing all the 3.x stuff, so I will also add this =) Thank you
