Why do you need a fedex account in sandbox?
Are you just trying to prove that you can print fedex labels or something?

Users may want to know how to resolve Sandbox FedEx Error:' This account number was not recognized by FedEx. Please re-enter your account number, or contact FedEx to open a new account Setup FedEx Account in Sandbox'

Solution
When users are unable to setup FedEx Account in SandBox and receives the error "This account number was not recognized by FedEx. Please re-enter your account number, or contact FedEx to open a new account", consider the following:

1. Only test account numbers can be used when setting up FedEx Account in SandBox instance.

2. Contact FedEx and ask for a Test Account Number.

Note: The use of a Live FedEx Account still results to an error when used in SandBox.
