 Nabataea.net : The Chronology of Jeremiah and the Lachish Letters
This invasion was certainly before the death of Nabopolassar, Nebuchadnezzar's father, for after Daniel had remained three years in Babylon it was then but the second year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign by Hebrew reckoning, 604-603 (Daniel 1:5, 18, 2:1).
Upon receiving the news, he left his main forces to return by the usual more northerly route, via the Euphrates, while he with light troops hurriedly crossed over the desert directly to Babylon to assure to himself the throne (Josephus against Apion.
Thus it was probably in this very early invasion that Jehoiakim was bound with fetters with the intention of carrying him also to Babylon.

 The Kings Calendar
The Bottom line is that the Biblical narratives cannot be used to support the claim that Josiah died during 'THE' battle of Carchemish during the 17th year of Nabopolassar, during Assur-Uballit's final attempt to capture Haran.
Therefore, since their other calculations based upon Biblical Chronology also place Josiah's death at this time, Josiah must in fact, have died this year.
Josephus, in his account (Antiquities 10:5:2 (81) - Whiston (1993, p271) states that as Necho returned from battle 'he sent' for Jehoahaz to come to him to the city called Hamath, which belongs to Syria.

These wise master–builders of the Babylonians, like the Bezaleels and Aholiabs of the Jews, were not building after their own patterns, but according to those that had been revealed to them by the chiefs of the builders, the Moseses, the Galdus, the Chaldeans, also had received from their gods.
The chiefs of the builders, —the heads of the department of astrology, would be the natural ones for Nebuchadnezzar to call to his council, just as Nabopolassar is said above to have sent out his wise workmen from the council of his great chamber.
