}Notes
- Language: the API words scans in German; the adapter replaces the five codes it has seen (
NTF,RFS,SCA,POD,SIG) with English and keeps the carrier's text for any other code. - Time zone: scan times are Swiss local time (
Europe/Zurich). - Same-time scans: delivery (
POD) and signature (SIG) arrive with the same second.
