SOW 1

Mantis: 3272: (Past Due) include “port dates” in the current “past due arrival / past due departure” reports

Problem

• MOT = any OCEAN, the system only looks at the “terminals” but ignores the “ports”.

• If/when there is a different “origin terminal” and “port of loading” - there is no validation (past due departure) for the “port of loading” date.
• If/when there is a different “destination terminal” and “port of discharge” – there is no validation (past due arrival) for the “port of discharge” date.

Core requirements:

• We need to use “port dates” and “terminal dates” – independently and separately UNLESS they have the same value.

Glossary

• ETD = Estimated Time of Departure (a.k.a Estimated Departure Date)
• ATD = Actual Time of Departure (a.k.a Actual Departure Date)
• ETA = Estimated Time of Arrival (a.k.a Estimated Arrival Date)
• ATA = Actual Time of Arrival (a.k.a Actual Arrival Date)

Solution

Preliminary note

We cannot use the dates independently each of other due specific sequence of validating dates.
Example: Destination terminal estimated date cannot be earlier than Port of discharge estimated date.

Main idea

In the same way as for Past Due report we need add validation of Port dates - Port of Discharge ETA and Port of Discharge ATA in addition to Destination Terminal ETA and Destination Terminal ATA.

If at least one pair of dates ETA-ATA in CT will comply with condition of Date Criteria then shipment should be added to report.

Tomorrow (1 day) Tab

• ExpTab. Port Of Discharge ETA is “tomorrow (today + 1 day)” AND ExpTab. Port Of Discharge ATA is empty
• OR
• ExpTab. Destination Terminal ETA is “tomorrow (today + 1 day)” AND ExpTab. Destination Terminal ATA is empty

X days Tab

• ExpTab. Port Of Discharge ETA is “today + X days” AND ExpTab. Port Of Discharge ATA is empty
