General Info

• parent: http://mantis.jaguarfreight.com/mantis/view.php?id=1997

Business Needs and Requirements

Business Need

The ability to list the dimensions on ALL documents.

Business Requirements

The ability to list the dimensions from Commodity#Table_B onto pdf docs without manual entry by the record operator.

One of the Reasons: Each document cannot be a 2 page document that is why we can not follow conventional way of listing it as a field on a Pdf template

Dims Format

Info should be pre-formated by the system. Example:

For table below:

Info will be pre-formatted like this:

10 @ 200x500x80 cm
 5 @ 15x15x25 cm

Suggestions for Design

Marc and I identified 2 options for design.

Design A

• add new Dimensions textarea on Cont Tab
• add "Populate Dims" button
• user would click on this button for system top populate this textarea with dims info accordingly to #Dims Format
• user then would copy/paste from there into any desired Pdf template field (manually)

Design B

• add new Dimensions textarea on Pdf template
• user then would copy/paste from there into any desired Pdf template field (manually)

Detailed Design

• Create a text area with dims info display in order for user to copy this info and paste to anywhere on the pdf template they want
• System is automatically showing this info below the pdf template space
• This info is only extra providing for users and it is not automatically generated on pdf doc anywhere; this info will ONLY show on the pdf if user copy it and paste it anywhere on the pdf template

Figures
