[edit] When do we contact Descartes

The EA dom team should be contacting the Descartes #Customer_Support team directly when they experience any issues with the TMS.

Note: At times the EA Dom team would require our further assistance for when they do not receive their dispatch e-mail confirmations for newly routed shipments. This is when we check Descartes GLN and our FTP server for these files. If they're not sent from Descartes GLN, we can manually send from their GLN or we can ask Descartes to look into further as to why they're not sent. Lastly our FTP server if files are there, we need to troubleshoot as to why they were not sent and received by CyberTrax.
