I've been writing Electronic Invoicing & Remittance applications for FedEx for the last 10 years as an independent contractor, and I can tell you that I've never seen anything close to that big with FedEx. FedEx gives my software (FedEx DirectLink) to their larger shipping accounts around the world and the invoice data I'm working with is pretty massive at times. As a matter of fact, most of the airlines use the software as well :) Robert
