Barcode Height missing from Custom Barcode Entry

I am integrating FedEx shipping API to generate labels using Java. Everything is working fine, but except for this issue. I am receiving the following error when setting LabelFormatType to COMMON2D or LABEL_DATA_ONLY for FedEx Freight i.e FEDEX_FREIGHT_ECONOMY and FEDEX_FREIGHT_PRIORITY.

        <Code>6022</Code>
        <Message>Barcode Height missing from Custom Barcode Entry</Message>

I did try to add Barcode height in fields below, but its not working

RequestedShipment -> ShippingDocumentSpecification -> CustomShipmentDocumentDetail -> CustomContent -> BarcodeEntries -> BarHeight

RequestedShipment -> ShippingDocumentSpecification -> CustomPackageDocumentDetail -> CustomContent -> BarcodeEntries -> BarHeight

RequestedShipment -> ShippingDocumentSpecification -> FreightAddressLabelDetail -> CustomContent -> BarcodeEntries -> BarHeight

RequestedShipment -> LabelSpecification -> CustomerSpecifiedDetail -> CustomContent -> BarcodeEntries -> BarHeight

Note: The code is working for other two LabelFormatTypei.e FEDEX_FREIGHT_STRAIGHT_BILL_OF_LADING and VICS_BILL_OF_LADING and other ServiceTypes.

I am unable to find any solution yet.

Please let me know what am I missing ?

You were right, you need to use those 2 label format types. When it comes to LTL Freight shipment request, the "Barcode Height missing from Custom Barcode Entry" can be returned when using COMMON2D or LABEL_DATA_ONLY. As per FedEx support, the FedEx LTL shipments require a Bill-Of-Lading (BOL) and the only LabelFormatTypes available for this are either the FEDEX_FREIGHT_STRAIGHT_BILL_OF_LADING or VICS_BILL_OF_LADING where VICS = Voluntary Inter-Industry Commerce Standards. This label is returned in PDF format, besides that you can request a FedEx Address Label in ZPL format.
