Glossary

High Level requirement

• The International web portal development should take into consideration the growing need for "Third party" access to CT2
• Third Party access refers to customers, shippers, suppliers, agents, truckers etc. to whom partial access of CT2 data (creating records, adding/updating specific fields) is granted.
• Each third party user type is then given some specific functionality (example of possible functionalities are listed in this article for International portal users).

• For an example of a third party user type would be customer who could create a record to book a shipment...rather than sending the information to JFS for data entry by JFS staff.

Requirements Summary

JFS would like to have an International Web portal that can be easily configurable and flexible to suit all the third party users including all client companies. There are many different types of users, so each type of user can be specific in terms of configuration. In order to suit the specific needs of users, we should provide a system that can be easily configured through admin module to manage each type of users such as functionality, visibility, ability, etc.

Users should be able to manage their own UI setting for their view

Requirements Details

International Shipper functionality

• Each shipper can have different ability and right access to each shipment and list of shipment

• Group of shippers can be created and each shipper can belong to a group of shippers that has the same functionality and the same right for accessibility and visibility

• For example, shipper A has ability to edit field1 but shipper B doesn't have ability to edit field1 but field1 can be available to view
• For example, shipper can create a shipment and has ability to select a mode of transportation (Undefined, Air, Ocean) that are available for the option or select undefined mode
