Glossary

Business Needs

Core need

This feature would allow for better optimization, by knowing the number of days to put off picking up shipments; to be able to add more pickups, in the future, to maximize the trucks capacity.

Requirements

This date feature should not be hard coded; it should be allowed to manage in CT2 >> Admin >> Client App Admin - TMS tab. This would be to allow for the scalability of our current TMS solution, for us to provide to other client companies.

This is for Non Jag users that have role, Planner set in their non jag user profile - see Cybertrax_2.1_Client_(requirements)#Core_Planner_Functionality.

Core Functionality

Add/Display a Datebox to client app planner role for when user sets:

OR

Cybertrax_2.1_Client_(requirements)#Hold_With_Approved_For_Pick_Up_On_Date_Status.

Where

Need to display the Cargo Due results in the CT record on:

  • client app shipper role
  • client app planner role
  • client app client role
  • internal app Gen Tab CT_bo#Cargo_due

Add this date field to Shipment Import xml mapping

Some questions asked to take into consideration:

Do we need to set a specific time (number of days) for when this date cannot be changed? No, but it should be like the hold with a date, where the date cannot be changed 72 hrs before the set date

Can the Approved for date be = to the due date? Y

Can any planner change this date or just super planners & those who are not subject to the double approval process? Y, keep the same functionality

How often can this date change or is it likened to the Hold with a date feature where date cannot be changed 72 hrs before the set date? Yes its the same functionality as the Hold with a date feature, where it cannot be changed 72 hrs before the set date

KPI Reporting will be required to report/analyze on

  • Created date to approval date
  • Approval date to due date
  • Actual delivery date vs due date (on time performance, variations etc) (this one is an internal requirement EA did not request it

but it has significant value)
