Business Process Section

Operator begins when they receive an EOD (End of day) or POD (Proof of delivery) manifest from the trucker - Jewels for the previous days deliveries.

File:Example EOD.JPG

The operator will double check the manifest against TMS & make any corrections required to either one (the manifest or the TMS system). Then the operator will update the CT records to reflect this information. Once all is updated and approved, they will send the approval back to Jewels and Jewels will send an email reply again listing all of the CT records that should be included on the Trendset spreadsheet.

The operator groups all of the CT's listed on the email and updates all records in the group with the import ref #.

Since Trendset is currently only being used for EA Dom Portal trucking shipments,
this reference number will begin with DO (Domestic Order)
and is assigned according to a manual list that is kept sequential order
Currently grouping is being discussed among operations, BA and Dev.  
Tira advised that they do not need to be grouping shipments anymore
Erin (operations) advised that they group all of the shipments
Tira advise she would discuss with Misha and Rob

The operator will then create a master based on the CT record they are currently in.

Operator will double check to make sure all CTs in the master were delivered.  
Any records that were not delivered, must be removed from the master.
Notes:
Multiple loads in one master is okay
Master can either be grouped together in one group or does not require a group at all.  
The master cannot contain more then one group.
