Business story

This needs to reflect typical and some exceptional workflows

  • 3 CTs get approved
  • CT2 sends data to TMS
  • Jag oper discovers new approved CTs (how?)
  • a) Jag oper manually processes CT
  • updates
  • docs
  • etc
  • b) Jag oper uses optimization to handle CT
  • updates
  • docs
  • etc

Use Cases

Use case 2a. Direct Pickup and delivery (NJ, NY, and CT)

Normal Flow of Events

1) Trucking company receives all relevant shipping information from TMS and accepts the shipment.

2) Trucker goes and pickups the shipments from each of the shippers (this can be many truckers picking up many shipments from many different shipper's who are all within the tri-state area).

3) Trucker unloads the shipments at the warehouse to consolidate.

4) Trucker loads the shipments and delivers the shipments to the consignee.

5) Consignee receives their shipments and gives a confirmation POD (proof of delivery) document to the trucker.

6) Trucker writes the CT# reference on the POD (CT# must be matched to the CT# that was created by shipper user).

7) Trucker faxes/e-mails the POD to Jaguar.

8) Jaguar operator uploads the POD document into the CT record.
