[edit] Intro

Testing on Demo server today revealed that we are missing critical Report that needs to be demonstrated to Client on Monday.

This report (#Trucking Optimization Report) is defined below along with required additional fields.

Please postpone all other work to produce this missing Report/components ASAP. See more below.

[edit] Due dates

  • Ideally: April 23 NY mid day on Demo server
  • Worst case: April 26 NY morning on Demo server

[edit] Demo Server Data

In order to have meaningful functionality test in NY on Demo server we need more or less latest data from staging (especially Addressbook).

[edit] Create additional fields

[edit] Cargo available

  • widget: datebox
  • location: Gen Tab
  • default: empty
  • meaning: on what date cargo is available for pick up (from Origin Door)
  • MOT: Truck

[edit] Cargo due

  • widget: datebox
  • location: Gen Tab
  • default: empty
  • meaning: by what date cargo should be delivered (to Destination Door)
  • MOT: Truck

[edit] Trucking Optimization Report

[edit] Version 1 that is based on States

[edit] Hard coded conditions

None. (All CTs should be captured)

[edit] Filters

For April 23 NY mid day:


Developer's Note:
-----------------
To simplify you can instead show a list of all US states


Developer's Note:

To simplify you can instead show a list of all US states

For May 1 release:

  • Remaining Virtual Group Filters (not confirmed!)

[edit] Output

  • media: xls only
  • Sort by: Cargo due, earliest on the top
  • Tabs: each tab per State (from Pick Up Location)
  • Fields (left to right)
    • label on xls // mapping explained
    • CT# //
    • Pick Up Location // Pick Up Location Company

    • Weight, lb // Grand ttl for CT
    • CBM // Grand ttl for CT
    • Cargo Available // CT field
    • Cargo Due // CT field
  • Totals: provided for numerical columns

[edit] Schedule vs Generate

  • Generate option (need by April 23 NY mid day on demo)
  • Schedule option (need for release)

[edit] Related Business Process

It is assumed that we apply Business_Process_and_Use_Cases_for_NATP#One_destination_and_milk_run_at_origin here.

Strategy/constraints:

  • you can't pick up freight that is not available
  • you must start moving freight that is due soon
  • you want to optimize cost of move:
    • minimize the number of trucks
      • truck must be as full as possible
      • send not too frequently
      • send larger trucks

Operator must make decisions about:

  • a) what to move
  • b) when to move
  • c) what truck size to use (or combination)
  • d) what trucking company to use

Decisions about a,b,c oper will make based on this report.

New orders come in at any moment of time changing the state of total freight available to move.

Operator will make separate decisions for every delivery location (this is based on assumption that delivery locations are far from each other and can not be serviced together on one trip).

For every delivery location operator has to know what is due soon to be delivered (and available for pick up).

Assume that:

  • you can't pick up same day that you are making a decision (always arrange in advance - for tomorrow)
  • it could take 1-4 days to move the shipment (loading+driving time)

To do that operator will:

  • Delivery location: set one
  • Cargo available date filter: from any date to tomorrow
  • Cargo due: from any to any !!!
