  • Item#
  • Supplier
  • EM(External Manufacturer)
• Result: HTML and xls
  • Item#

  • Item type
  • Supplier
  • EM(External Manufacturer)
  • US on hand
  • International on hand
  • In-transit - Land (truck mode)
  • In-transit - Air (Air mode)

• pop-up window for detail updated info
  • Updated by: user profile (vendor)
  • Updated date: dd- mon -yyyy
  • Detail updated: From last transaction to updated transaction information

Steps

Step 1

• Vendor logs on to the Inventory module

• Vendor's visibility: A vendor can only add, update, and view their specific inventory
  • For example, vendor A logs on to the system, vendor A can only see inventory that belongs to vendor A.
  • See #Figure 8. View page - Vendor Inventory

• Vendor adds:

• Item#
• Item Desc
• Item Type
• Supplier (read only vendor name, mapped from vendor user's profile)
• External Manufacturer (EM)
• Supplier USA on hand
• Supplier International on hand
• NOTE: the combination of Item# and EM are unique
• See #Figure 7. Add - Vendor Inventory

Step 2

• Jaguar operator updates/creates a record from Ops module to move shipment from supplier to destination (In-transit); (This is what Jaguar Operator does on CT2...create shipment with all information, once the shipment moves but not delivered - In transit, if the shipment moves and delivered - consignee on hand (EM/EA on hand) and no longer In-transit

• Shipper (supplier)
• Consignee (EM)
• MOT
• Item#
• Item Desc
• Qty
• NOTE: the combination of Item# and EM are unique (this info will be checked against Vendor Inventory table in order for system to auto-update info for Inventory information)
• Qty value from commodity table will be updated on Vendor Inventory In-transit columns on Inventory module (Land/Air/Sea:Truck/Air/Ocean)
• Once the shipment is delivered (no longer in-transit) to destination (consignee/EM) on Inventory module
• Number of Qty from in-transit will be deducted and added to the destination (EM/EA) on hand on Inventory module
• US Total on hand: Number of Total USA shipments on hand including Supplier USA on hand will be updated on Inventory module
• ATP next 40 days: Number of Total in-transit shipments including International shipment on hand will be updated as available to promise on Inventory module
• Total pipeline : US Total on hand + ATP next 40 days on Inventory module
• See #Figure 1. Vendor Inventory
• See use cases figures below
