When processing an order, you might come across the "Error 2502 - This shipment was designated as Residential Delivery but qualifies for FedEx Home Delivery. Please mark this shipment with the service 'FedEx Home Delivery' and re-ship" error.



This relates to a FedEx service code issue, which detects that the order in question should be shipped under the “FedEx Home Delivery” service, when it’s trying to be shipped using a different code. The error message is also self explanatory to the solution.
