- it consists of as many sections as there are CTs (originally selected by user)
- each CT section has as many lines as there are in commod table for this CT
- Vertically it has a number of columns. See column definitions below.
- CT#
- Vendor - CT#Shipper
- P.O. - Commodity#PO
- Item - Commodity#SKU
- Origin Port
- City, State from CT#Export Pick Up
- Note: print once per CT on the first line if there are multiples lines per CT on a spreadsheet
- Dest. Port
- COMPANY-CITY-NOTE from CT#Export Delivery To
- Note: print once per CT on the first line if there are multiples lines per CT on a spreadsheet
- Actual Pick Up Date
- CT#Actual Export Pick Up Date
- Note: for Truck-Ocean this date is on Container; and since each Commodity line is assigned to its own container - date would be shown for every spreadsheet line for such CT
- Actual Delivery Date
- CT#Actual Delivery Date
- Note: for Truck-Ocean this date is on Container; and since each Commodity line is assigned to its own container - date would be shown for every spreadsheet line for such CT

Spreadsheet: Billing Section
See example on #Figure 4
- This is a table.
- Horizontally:
- header: print column headers
- body: print one line per CT
- footer: print totals
- Vertically each line has the following fields - see below.
- C-Trax - CT#
- Plts - Commodity#Grand Total: Plts
- Pkgs on Plts - Commodity#Grand Total: Pkgs On Plts
- Loose Pkgs - Commodity#Grand Total: Loose Pkgs
- Gross Weight - Commodity#Grand Total: Gross Lb
- Rate - from #Template
- Freight Total = IF(Gross Weight/100*Rate <75) THEN 75 ELSE Gross Weight/100*Rate
- Fuel - from #Template
- Fuel Total = Freight Total x Fuel
- Extra 1 - default to 0.00
- Extra 2 - default to 0.00
- Total = Freight Total + Fuel Total + Extra 1 + Extra 1
- CT formulas examples for line 31:
- Freight Total // =IF(E31/100*F31<75,75,E31/100*F31)
- note: 75 here is a "Minimal Rate" from Template
- Fuel Total // =G31*H31
- Total // =G31+I31+J31+K31
- Freight Total // =IF(E31/100*F31<75,75,E31/100*F31)
- Totals Formulas (see line 39)
- each total is simply a sum of all numbers above it
- ! Please note that generated spreadsheet must contain formulas so that if number is changed by user it will re-calculate!
Misc
- Please note that it is not required to have option to save generated version into the system (as for pdfs)
- Business Analyst said it is up to developer how to display Manifest_Section and Billing_Section on two spreadsheet tabs or one tab (one below another).
