Add FTL vs LTL flag

• FTL - full truck load. Paid per track regardless of weight/volume. For very large shipments.
• LTL - less than truck load. Paid based on weight/volume. For small and medium shipments.

In ASN 2.0 we would like to request shipper to indicate what kind of shipment he is requesting.

Also this should be a sub-type of MOT offered to Shipper/Planner.

For FTL type of shipment we also would request truck related info - see #Add Truck info.

Add Truck info

For FTL shipments need truck related info such as:

• truck size
• trailer id
• seal number
• ability to map commodity items to particular truck

We want to request this info from Shippers when they submit ASN for FTL shipments.

Typical truck size values: 48 ft, 53 ft.

ASN transmit

• Need option to automatically forward approved shipment info to another company (to handle transportation instead of Jag Ops).

• Possibly need options:
  • send as an xls attachment
  • EDI/XML transfer
  • other as defined by systems we interface with

• Options to:
  • auto send based on MOT/lanes
  • manually send

• Option to batch (send multiples in one transmission)

Preliminary demo to EA

IMPORTANT

Need to soon show core functionality to first prospective client - EA:

• create ASN for Air / Ocean with typical Arden approval options

Due date: end of 1st or 2nd week of Oct.
