Info

Mantis parent: 4172

Mantis Category: Ocean Status

Wiki category: Category:Ocean Status - see all related wikis there

Definitions

  • VAN - A Value-added Network (VAN) is a hosted service offering that acts as an intermediary between business partners sharing standards based or proprietary data. In the context of this project we use VAN as an intermediary between Jaguar and all carriers for message exchange.
  • GLN - VAN owned by Descartes
  • Descartes - EDI vendor
  • Cargosmart - EDI vendor

Business Need

Core needs is to automate the following:

  1. booking ocean with carrier
  2. sending Shipping Instructions to carrier
  3. receiving updates from carrier

Business Analysis and Requirements

Current Biz Process

Currently operators book with and get updates from ocean carriers manually. After that they manually update CT/Master record with the information they received.

Phases

Phase one will cover OOCL carrier only.

Solution

Admins and Codes

Ocean Status Admin

Some of these can be kept in Properties file and not UI.

  • FTP credentials: url, uname, pwd
    • outbound and inbound
    • for test and prod envir
  • update frequency in secs
  • on/off switch for transmission/receiving each of four types of messages
  • list of steamshiplines participating: On/Off switch
  • email notification groups
  • location/name of item, for example Air status/Ocean status together under Ops EDI

Container Type Admin

Container Type ISO Code

Related to http://wiki.jaguarfreight.com/wiki/SI_EDI#SOW_18_Fix_Container_info

In Admin > Transportation > Container Size/Type

If D2L codes are same as ISO then:

  • Rename "D2L codes" into "ISO code"

If D2L codes are NOT same as ISO then:

  • add additional field "ISO code", same format/validation

In both cases:

Reefer Indicator

Add "Reefer Indicator" attribute to container types. Values: "Y" or "No"

Steamshipline Admin

Add new attributes to Steamshipline object - see below.

Contract Number

Contract number for contract between Jaguar and Steamshipline.

UI: Add to Admin > Carriers > Steamshiplines

Format: TBD

Account Bullet

Additional info related to #Contract Number.

This is lane (Country or Region) specific.

UI: Add to Admin > Carriers > Steamshiplines

Format: TBD

In Steamshipline Admin or Ocean Status Admin.

Misc Constants

  • AMS SCAC Code - SCAC/ACI Code. For USA trade, this is a code with normally 4 digits for AMS filing, we need this code to submit AMS filing and Jaguar is registered. Our AMS SCAC code is JAFR.

Access

Restrict access.

HTS Feature

What:

  • Add this field to commodity table (for each line): HTS Number

(commodity customs code). See http://www.foreign-trade.com/reference/hscode.htm

  • This field should be presented and (be required only) for records that will be booked/processed through EDI
  • For both ASN and CT records

How: (ideas):

  • UI: combobox? tree?
  • how to upload into system and how to maintain it there?
  • for ASN recs entered by Shipper on Client

HTS Automation

  • postpone for phase 2?
  • remember link btw HTS and SKU as it gets entered so we can do "auto-suggest"?
  • upload xls with link btw SKU and xls? (PO Issued By specific?)

Changes in Master Object and Master Profile

New Container Fields

  • RF Temperature // Format: 9999.99 // Temperature Requirement for RF containers.
    • UI: add to container profile; textfield; default = TBD
  • RF Temperature Unit // C (Celsius) or F(Farenheit) // Unit of measurement
    • UI: add to container profile; dropdown ; default = TBD;

Above needs to be presented/validated only for RF type of containers - use #Reefer Indicator to distinguish.

Editable in M only or in CT as well when CTs are under Master.

New Master Fields

Add new attributes to Master Entity:

  • Cargo Cut Off Date // Date+Time // Last possible date cargoes may be delivered to a ship or designated point.
    • Read only, M Det Tab
  • Documentation Cut Off Date // Date+Time // Last possible date documentation can be sent.
    • Read only, M Det Tab
  • CY open date // Date+Time // First possible date cargoes may be delivered to a ship or designated point.
  • CY cut-off date - same as Cargo Cut Off Date?
  • MBL Type // "original" or "express" // Defines what type of MBL is used. Takes one of two values: "original" or "express"
    • UI: add to Master Gen Tab below "2. Move type/MBL", default to "original"
  • AES Number // AN, 15 digits // aka Internal Transaction Number (ITN), id received from Automated Export System. The ITN consists of the letters “AES” followed by the ITN: for example, “AES X20080930987654. See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_Export_System
  • Wood packing material // "used" or "not used" // Any wooden packaging material is used or not, this is what we have to declare to the shipping line for every single booking to USA and Canada.

Master Context Menu

Add Booking Request button to initiate 300 Booking Request message.

Message will be sent immediately and confirmation pop-up will be shown.

Master Doc Tab

  • detect that given master is a subject to EDI transmission (carrier is on the EDI list)
  • modify MBL template to accommodate EDI case (add new fields)
  • on "generate report" send 304 Shipping Instructions and generate pdf, show confirmation

Master Comments Tab

Post all events/updates related to all messages here:

  • Every time message was sent or received, content of the message, operator who initiated

Messaging

Message Transport level

FTP protocol will be used on a transport level.

Location of Inbound and Outbound folders TBD.

FTP credentials are defined in Admin.

All Message Types

This is a list of EDI messages being used here to exchange info between Jaguar and Steamshiline through Descartes GLN - see below.

Booking Request
  • see 300 Booking Request
    • The shipper or forwarder can use this transaction set to reserve cargo space.
    • Also used for Booking Update and Booking Cancellation
Booking Confirmation
Ocean Shipping Instructions
  • see 304 Shipping Instructions
    • This message supplies the same information as the Shipper's Letter of Instruction. It provides all the information necessary to prepare and distribute a contract of carriage (ocean bill of lading and other shipping documents).
Shipment Status
  • 315 Shipment Status
    • This message is used to report status or event details (cargo receipt, departure and arrival) for individual shipments.

Message Exchange Scenarios

Example 1
day 1: (Booking Request 300)          JAG -> VAN -> CARRIER
.
day 1:  (Booking Confirmation 301)    JAG <- VAN <- CARRIER 
.
day 4:  (Shipping Instructions 304)   JAG -> VAN -> CARRIER 
.
day 15: (Shipment Status 315)         JAG <- VAN <- CARRIER
.
day 35: (Shipment Status 315)         JAG <- VAN <- CARRIER
Example 2

Email Notifications

Notify group defined in Admin when these messages are received:

  • Booking Conf 301
  • Status 315

Reports

Option 1

Increment existing List Masters report to enable operator to look at EDI activity for desired group of Masters singled out by applying certain filters such as Steamshipline and Estimated day of Departure or port.

Add these filters to List Masters:

Add these output fields:

  • 300 message Status: yet, sent
  • 301 message Status: confirmed, rejected, conditionally accepted, pending
  • 304 message Status: yet, sent
  • 315 message status: there are 10-20 possible values, show the last received
  • more fields TBD

Option 2

Dashboard for exceptions (rejected messages, etc).

Details TBD.

Option 3

Impending cargo cut off report/dashboard.

Impending documents cut off report/dashboard

Log

Log all related events.

Human initiated:

  • send 300
  • send 304

EDI initiated:

  • received 301
  • received various 315

Access

Restrict access as required.
