Trucking Billing Manifest for Virtual Group is a spreadsheet that is generated based on pick-up or delivery trucker. It will be an option to generate the billing, edit and send to the client or vendor.
+
== Specs ==
-
== Location ==
+
To add this feature you need to add 2 components:
 +
* [[#Wizard Pop Up]]
 +
* [[#Trucking Billing Manifest for NATP]]
-
* Misc Tab in [[Master Trucking]].
 
-
'''NOTE:''' Billing can be generated after defining Truck virtual group from [http://mantis.jaguarfreight.com/wiki/Virtual_Groups_for_NATP Virtual Group] and assigning virtual group to group and master. Then user can generate billing based on pick-up truckers or delivery truckers
+
=== Wizard Pop Up ===
-
[[Category: Trucking Billing Manifest (M) (xls)]]
+
After user selects billing option on [[Virtual_Groups_for_NATP#General_Wizard_Step_3]] system will:
-
== Example and Typical Workflow ==
+
* create a [[CT Group]] out of all CTs in Virtual Group
 +
** MOT = Truck Domestic
 +
** Client = Client from Virtual Grp classifiers
 +
* Create Trucking Master
 +
* Add [[CT Group]] above to the Master
 +
* present pop up as on [[#Figure 1. Assign GRP and MASTER]]
-
* User creates a virtual group by classifiers
+
=== Trucking Billing Manifest for NATP ===
-
* User reviews the result then click next
+
-
* User selects '''Generate Billing on Pick up Trucker''' or '''Generate Billing on Delivery Trucker''' options from the menu
+
-
* User clicks '''Apply'''
+
-
* Pop-up window shows Group#XXXX has been generated and Master#XXXX has been generated. See [#Figure 1. Assign GRP and MASTER]
+
-
* User clicks '''Ok'''
+
-
* User will go to Master# record from quicklink or ListMs to generate Billing Manifest
+
-
* User navigates to Master> Misc tab
+
-
* User generates Billing Manifest
+
-
* System brings up model window where user may select any subset of CTs that belong to the virtual group. See example on [[#Figure 1.]]
+
-
* User selects some CTs or all CTs
+
-
* User completes the form and clicks "Generate Report" button.
+
-
* System generates spreadsheet and opens it to the user. See example on [[]] and [[]]
+
-
** See additional information about spreadsheet here: [[#Spreadsheet]]
+
-
=== User Interface ===
+
-
See [[#Figure 1. Assign GRP and MASTER ]] for pop-up window. This window is showing once user selected generating billing.
+
Master Trucking needs additional tab: NATP.
-
System assigned a group and Master automatically once user clicks ''Generate Billing on Pick up Trucker'' or ''Generate Billing on Delivery Trucker''
+
See [[#Figure 2. Billing for Virtual Group]]
-
See [[#Figure 2. Billing for Virtual Group]] for viewing CTs below
+
This tab has same purpose as Misc tab - to generate Trucking Billing Manifest. The difference is in how it is done and output design. Overall one is just a variation of another.
-
This is the HTML template from Misc Tab under a Master
+
See what we have now on Misc tab here: [[Trucking Billing Manifest (Developer Guide)]]
-
=== Template ===
+
==== Template ====
-
* '''Selected Shipment''' - [[checkbox]], default is ''uncheck''
+
-
* '''Extra columns''' - [[listbox]], default value is 0
+
-
* '''Reset Form'''  button
+
-
* '''Generate Result''' button
+
-
Additional information:
+
NATP template:
 +
* has CT/GRP list as Misc does
 +
* does not have any other field present on Misc except "Extra Columns". Reason: System will produce xls with default values (as defined for Misc) and user will edit on xls
 +
* has additional (not present on Misc) controls/choices - see [[#Generate For Choices]] and [[#Rate Fuel Choices]]
-
* '''Extra columns''' - [[listbox]], default value is 0, possible values: {0,1,2,3}
+
==== Xls ====
-
* '''Reset Form''' button - should clear the data and uncheck the CTs from the Shipments table
+
-
* '''Generate Result''' button - - should generate spreadsheet
+
-
=== Spreadsheet ===
+
It consists of same components as xls for Misc but there are some important differences:
 +
* Section 1 and 2 are now located on same tab not 2 different tabs as for Misc
 +
* user has some choices of layout - see [[#Generate For Choices]] and [[#Rate Fuel Choices]]
-
It is groupped by Truck company per tab - see below.
+
==== Rate Fuel Choices ====
-
=== Hard Coded Conditions ===
+
* per Trucker
 +
** this is how it is done on Misc
 +
** in this case system creates one set of parameters (rates/fuel) per tab
 +
** see [[#Figure 3. Rate fuel per trucker (one trucker per spreadsheet)]]
-
Based on Pick-up Trucker
+
* per unique origin / destination pair
 +
** new idea
 +
** for Section 2 system creates as many groups as there are unique origin destination pairs (with its own set of parameters (rates/fuel)) per tab
 +
** business reason: rates could be defined by origin/destination in the future for some companies
 +
** see [[#Figure 4. Rate fuel per unique origin and destination pair]]
-
* This billing is generated based on Pick-up Trucker ONLY
+
==== Generate For Choices ====
-
* Consider Trucker companies that handle the loads from pick up location to warehouse
+
-
Based on Delivery Trucker
+
* All Pick Up Truckers
 +
** system must group all selected CTs per [[CT#Pick Up Trucker]] and display each group on a separate xls tab. Tab is to be named after given Trucker
 +
* All Delivery Truckers
 +
** same idea as above
 +
* Selected Pick Up Trucker
 +
** on template system produces dropdown with all unique truckers across selected CTs
 +
** user may select one
 +
** xls has only CTs that have selected trucker
 +
* Selected Delivery Trucker
 +
** same idea as above
-
* This billing is generated based on Delivery Trucker ONLY
+
Validation
-
* Consider Trucker companies that handle the loads from warehouse to destination
+
  ----------
-
 
+
Each CT must have Pick Up and Delivery Trucker set.
-
=== Spreadsheet ===
+
If not show error pop-up and block xls generation.
-
 
+
-
See Example on Figure 3.
+
-
 
+
-
* This is a table.
+
-
 
+
-
* Horizontally:
+
-
** It consists of as many sections as there are CTs (originally selected by user)
+
-
** Each CT section has as many lines as there are in commod table for this CT
+
-
** Header for each section: print column headers
+
-
** Divide section by From one location To another location
+
-
** Body for each section: print one line per CT
+
-
** Each section provides Rate, Minimum Rate, Maximum Rate, and Fuel for before each table
+
-
** Footer for each section: print totals
+
-
 
+
-

[edit] Trucking Billing Manifest for NATP

Master Trucking needs additional tab: NATP.

See #Figure 2. Billing for Virtual Group

This tab has same purpose as Misc tab - to generate Trucking Billing Manifest. The difference is in how it is done and output design. Overall one is just a variation of another.

See what we have now on Misc tab here: Trucking Billing Manifest (Developer Guide)

[edit] Template

NATP template:

  • has CT/GRP list as Misc does
  • does not have any other field present on Misc except "Extra Columns". Reason: System will produce xls with default values (as defined for Misc) and user will edit on xls
  • has additional (not present on Misc) controls/choices - see #Generate For Choices and #Rate Fuel Choices

[edit] Xls

It consists of same components as xls for Misc but there are some important differences:

[edit] Rate Fuel Choices

  • per unique origin / destination pair
    • new idea
    • for Section 2 system creates as many groups as there are unique origin destination pairs (with its own set of parameters (rates/fuel)) per tab
    • business reason: rates could be defined by origin/destination in the future for some companies
    • see #Figure 4. Rate fuel per unique origin and destination pair

    • same idea as above 
Validation
----------
Each CT must have Pick Up and Delivery Trucker set.
If not show error pop-up and block xls generation.
