Ver 4.0

Totals logic

1] Totals for multipage:

Q: In case table is split between multiple pages, do we need to print totals line on each page or only on last page?

A: Only on last page.

Lines manipulation

Some pdf commodity table sections have "line manipulation features":

Line Up

• Line could be selected and then moved up the list until top is reached
• At first no line is selected
• Once some line is selected system should hold selection until page is refreshed or another line is selected (not working now)

Line Down

• 1 Line could be selected and then moved down the list until bottom is reached
• 2 Some documents have no bottom (if they could be multipage, example: DO.Ocean), some have (DO.Air)
• 3 At first no line is selected
• 4 Once some line is selected system should hold selection until page is refreshed or another line is selected

Insert Line

• 1 user selects line, clicks "Insert"
• 2 system must insert line above selected
• 3 system must keep selected line selected even after insert - this is more convenient if user wants to insert several lines at a time
• 4 ??? todo: what is the Insert logic for fixed lines document (like DO Air)? Remove Insert from DO Air?

Delete line

• 1 User can select line and click "Delete". System would delete selected line and move all lines below one line up.
• 2 As usual keep selected line selected

Precision

• must be exactly 2 digits after dot (on all docs) --Alex 20:41, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Unit conversion

• most tables have unit conversion feature that must convert on the fly (example: kg to lb)

Look and Feel

• 1] unit of measurement that appears to the right of the number (example: 20CBM) must be printed only on the "Total:" line

• 2] comtable needs vertical lines but not horizontal lines

• 3] comtable needs lines around it - it must be "in the box"

• 4] TOC must always extend to the bottom of the page regardless of how many lines are there

• 5] all totals in TOC (Table Of Charges) must be bold

Version 5.0 ("Textarea-based")

"Textarea-based" Commod Section

Next Ver and RFC

• Must be able to distinguish between different types of pkg (ex: drums vs cartons)
