ASN 20 Requirements Bits

From UG

Misc R

• Def: USA Domestic EA shipments - EA shipments from one point to another within US/Canada. TMS is used to manage these.

• Def: International EA shipments - EA shipments from one continent to another. Each shipments represents the following chain:
  • export trucking segment (origin door to port)-> Air (port to port) -> import trucking segment (port to destin door)
  • export trucking segment (origin door to port)-> Ocean (port to port) -> import trucking segment (port to destin door)

• EA Shippers can be divided into categories:
  • create/view only USA Domestic shipments
  • create/view only International shipments
  • create/view both

• "PO issued by" logic will remain. PO issued by list will be complemented by several more items to cover International moves.

FCL mode for Shipper

Shipper should choose between FCL and LCL. In case he selected FCL then:

• he must define commodity per container
• he must define commodity for each container in one line
• he must indicate type/size of container

Questions and Not Confirmed Requirements

• Choice of MOT:
  • a) We assume that Shipper is making decision on what MOT to use at the moment of ASN creation
  • b) Planner can not change that

• What list of MOTs to present to Shipper and how to map those into CT2 internal list of MOT. Assumption:
  • (Shipper MOT -> internal MOT)
  • Air -> same
  • LCL -> same
  • FCL -> FCL(AW) or FCL(MLB) ?
  • Truck FTL > Truck Domestic
  • Truck LTL > Truck Domestic

• Do we need to offer choice of Client Consol, Truck Air and Truck Domestic? I assume not. If yes then what is the logic?

• List of additional fields on ASN Form:
  • MOT single select
  • for FCL:
    • cont size single select
    • cont type single select
    • and NOTE: define commodities for each container in ONE line only
  • for FTL:
    • truck size single select
    • and NOTE: define commodities for each truck in ONE line only
