Business Need (MO)

BR: Business Requirements

BR: Lines Per CT Option

Need 2 options: show all commodity lines for one CT or only commodity summary (one line)

Option for CT hyper link (BR)

Biz Need:

Option to display or not display CT # on output excel without hyperlink.

Suggested Design:

Add checkbox on Output Tab provide this option.

BR: Make ALL CT fields available for output and filtering

make ALL CT fields available for output and filtering:
- all CT fields
- all Commodity fields
- all Container fields

should be done only for CT based reports. We need this list by the way.

How to group so many filters? Additional tabs? Groups on one tab?
- suggest solution

How to group or order them on Output Tab (Select From panel):
- now they are not grouped / ordered and when we have a very long list this is an issue
- now we need to select one at a time - this is too slow
- please suggest alternative designs so we can choose

Internal vs Client:
- All fields should only be available for internal

see also #SD: Rules for labels

BR: Add more flexibility

1) add #Option for CT hyper link (BR) as an option for every report
2) add #Lines Per CT Option (LIPCO) as an option for every report

SD: Systems Design

Lines Per CT Option (LIPCO)

LIPCO multi line

In this case system must show all commodity lines for one CT. See example below.

Non Commodity table field values would have to be repeated (including CT#)

LIPCO one line

In this case on output system must show only one line for one CT. Commodity information must be summarized. For example see CT# 199001 below.

If CT has more than one line in Commodity Table then:

for Commodity Table numerical columns (Plts, Weight, etc) show total number
for Commodity Table character column (SKU, PO, etc) show any one value and add "++" at the end indicating that there are more

Option for CT hyper link

CT Num with hyperlink

mapping: CT#CT Num
this number is a hyperlink to Client App OR Internal App (View or Edit)

CT Num without hyperlink

mapping: CT#CT Num

SD: Rules for labels

- on Output tab - show Standard Long Label
- on HTML View and Spreadsheet - show Standard Short Label

SD: Output Fields

Most fields are defined in respective business object wikis:

SD: Make ALL CT fields available for output and filtering

Suggested to group all CT fields for filtering on the tabs of "All CT fields report" template. See Figure 0 or [ZUL-prototype].
Non-CT fields that included to report grouped on "Non-CT Fields" tab.
List of suggested tabs for grouped fields: "General Fields", "Commodity Fields", "Export/Import Fields", "Date Fields", "Non-CT Fields".
- List of fields for each tab:
  - "General Fields" - TBD, presumably all fields of [CT#GenTab].
  - "Commodity Fields" - TBD, presumably all fields on GontTab of CT.
  - "Export/Import Fields" - TBD, presumably all fields of [CT#ExpTab] and [CT#ImpTab] exclude their Date Fields. This tab is allowed only for CT with appropriate MOT.
  - "Date Fields" - Time Frame, Estimated Pickup Date, Actual Pickup Date, Estimated Departure Date, Actual Departure Date, Estimated Arrival Date, Actual Arrival Date, Estimated Delivery Date, Actual Delivery Date.
  - "Non-CT Fields" - TBD.
Each field on template has additional "Output" checkbox (greencolored). The status of "Output" checkbox determines the need for output to the report the selected field.
On the "Output" tab (see Figure 1) provides additional output control:
- Lines Per CT Option
- Option for CT hyper link
- Ordering of output fields

SD: Add more flexibility

1) specified #Option for CT hyper link (BR) made as an option on Output tab in the form of "Display CT# as hyperlink" checkbox. see Figure 1
- checked state of checkbox means that shipments will be displayed as a hyperlink
2) specified #Lines Per CT Option (LIPCO) made as an option on Output tab in the form of "Commodity Lines Per CT" dropdown. see Figure 1.
- dropdown takes two states: "show all commodity lines for one CT" and "show only commodity summary (one line)"
