Intro

Descartes (Jaguar partner) is offering Automated Air Status Update Service

This service allows airfreight shipments booked directly by Jaguar with the airlines, to be fed automatic status updates (departure and arrival dates), removing our need to manually check and then update the status of Airfreight shipments.

It is our understanding that in order to send updates Descartes needs to receive only MAWB number.

Procedures

One CT one direct flight

For shipments that are complete and are booked on a direct flight the incoming messages should update the following fields in CT. [edit] Fields to be updated:

   * CT#Airport Of Departure Actual Date -
         o shipment should confirm the airport of departure is correct, by comparing the destination airport listed on the incoming message to the CT#Airport Of Departure 
   * CT#Airport Of Destination Actual Date-
         o shipment should confirm the airport of departure is correct, by comparing the destination airport listed on the incoming message to the CT#Airport Of Destination 

[edit] Transshipment airports

It is possible to have more than one transhipment airport.

We assume that Descartes can send meaningful updates to accommodate that case.

In the event of more than one trans shipment airport, the system should only update the CT#Trans Shipment port listed in the CT record. Once the incoming message received showing the indicated or matching trans ship port arrival, the the CT#Trans Shipment Actual Date should be updated.

Any departure or destination airports indicated in incoming messages that do not exist or match the CT record should be ignored. This will be addressed in Phase 2.


[edit] Split case

In this case airline might call and say that X plts/pcs/etc will be placed on Flight F1.

Later airline might call and say that Y plts/pcs/etc will be placed on Flight F2.

Later airline might call and say that remaining plts/pcs/etc will be placed on Flight F3.

It could be split 2,3,4, ... times. - Keeping a record of this updates will be TBD for Phase 2


We assume that Descartes can send meaningful updates to accommodate that case. CT2 should be re-designed to support that.

The CT should update the CT#Airport Of Departure Actual Date when the first piece has departed and update when the last piece departs and the CT#Airport Of Destination Actual Date when the first piece arrives and updated when the last piece updates.

A comment should be posted showing the following updates as a notification on the above.

   *
         o SPLIT SHIPMENT - First part has departed
         o SPLIT SHIPMENT - Last part has departed
         o SPLIT SHIPMENT - First part has arrived
         o SPLIT SHIPMENT - Last part has arrived 

The system will need to keep a count after the first departure, until the CT#Grand Total: Loose Pkgs or CT#Grand Total: Pkgs On Plts total matches, to accurately update the first and last parts. All other departures or arrivals should be ignored. This will be addressed in Phase 2 [edit] Delays

In the event that a shipment is removed from the original flight or the original flight is delayed.

Airport Of Departure Estimated Date field should be updated to reflect the corrected information.

Airport Of Destination Estimated Date field should be updated to reflect the corrected information.


[edit] Phase Two Business Requirements For UC2 & 3

Additional requirements TBD [edit] Transshipment airports

It is possible to have more than one transhipment airport.

We assume that Descartes can send meaningful updates to accommodate that case.

CT2 should be re-designed to support that.


[edit] Split case

In this case airline might call and say that X plts/pcs/etc will be placed on Flight F1.

Later airline might call and say that Y plts/pcs/etc will be placed on Flight F2.

Later airline might call and say that remaining plts/pcs/etc will be placed on Flight F3.

It could be split 2,3,4, ... times.

We assume that Descartes can send meaningful updates to accommodate that case. CT2 should be re-designed to support that.
