Does not exist - this is a new business.

[edit] Summary

Below is a full list of functionality requested:

[edit] Billing

One option is to bill once a day a group of CTs. Group could be defined by conditions: delivered=today; delivery location=XX.

Many other options should be possible: based on another date conditions, location conditions.

We might bill weekly.

See also: #Virtual Groups.

[edit] Reports

  • In Transit Report. Add filters:
    • Shipper / pick up location

  • Previous Day Collections / Deliveries changes:
    • none
  • "Approval Report" (new report). Filters:
    • Consignee
  • "Impending Pick ups" (new report) (based on estimated dates). Similar in concept to existing impending reports. Filters:
    • shipper/pick up location
    • carrier?
  • "Impending deliveries" (new report) (based on estimated dates). Similar in concept to existing impending reports. Filters:

    • Carrier?

See also: #Virtual Groups.

[edit] New Fields

[edit] On Customer Hold

See CT#On_Customer_Hold

[edit] Pending Approval Mode

  • (radio Y/N; default to N)
  • Gen tab, bottom right corner
  • MOT = all


[edit] Consol Warehouse

  • Code to identify specific warehouse. List of 4 numbers: {1,2,3,4}.
  • Add to botom right of Gen Tab
  • For now only for Truck modes (later we might add it to all MOTs)
Developers Note:
--------------
If it does not take much more time, please create Admin so that they can manage their own lists
instead of hard coded 1,2,3,4. Or we can add this feature later.

[edit] Delivery Trucker

  • We need this field added to Truck MOT ()
Developers Note:
----------------
This is the same field as CT#Delivery Trucker we have for Ocean and Air.

These flags/fields will be used as filters to generate reports, documents, groups.

[edit] PT number

see CT#PT Number

[edit] DT number

see CT#DT Number


See also: #Virtual Groups.

[edit] File Upload

Upload files (POD's) functionality required.

See: #Virtual Groups

[edit] Virtual Groups

Functionality to create "virtual groups" is needed. "Virtual group" is a subset of all records. Every CT that belongs to that group should satisfy given criteria.

Example 1. All CTs that satisfy:

MOT = Truck Domestic
Move From PICK UP LOCATION A
For: CARRIER B
For: SHIPMENTS TO DESTINATION C
For: ESTIMATED COLLECTION TODAY

Example 2. All CTs that satisfy:

MOT = Truck Domestic
To DELIVERY LOCATION A
For: CARRIER D
For: SHIPMENTS FROM ALL ORIGINS 
For: ESTIMATED DELIVERY TOMORROW

List of selection criteria.

  • Client Company
  • Choice of 3 Trucking MOTs
  • Flags - see #Flags
  • Shipper location
  • Consignee location
  • Trucker Name (carrier)
  • Pick up date (estimated or actual)
  • Delivery date (estimated or actual)
  • Not Billed Records


The purpose of grouping is to be able to perform certain action on a number of selected CTs. Actions that should be supported:

  • 1. generate REPORTS (either 1 time or schedule/automate)
  • 2. generate DOCUMENTS (single d/o or consolidation d/o and manifests)
  • 3. generate BILLING
  • 4. upload files (POD's)

There is no need to save this kind of group or assign a number to it. That is why we call it virtual.

[edit] Suggested Solution

[edit] Deadline

It is not clear now what can be completed by May 1.

Spec should be completed, approved and estimated (in man hours) first.
