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 be managed in CT2 >> Admin >> Client App Admin - TMS tab, as an option to display or not to display. (This would be to allow for the scalability of our current TMS solution, for us to provide to other client companies.)

  • This feature 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.
    • If Non Jag user has planner role with Cargo Due Date Field on, AND Double Approval Process = basic planner, this date field is mandatory and must be completed .
    • Also, the system should prevent non jag users with basic planner role from changing the Cargo Due Date set by super planner.
    • If Non Jag user has planner role with Cargo Due Date Field on, And Double Approval Process = super planner role, this date field is also mandatory and must be completed. But they also can confirm the date that was already set by basic planner, by approving and/or placing on hold with an approved for pickup date. They do not need to reset the date value, unless its in the past.
  • This date needs to be sent to the TMS on the Shipment Import File. (xml mapping, see Data Dic mapping here 2229)
  • Allow the Approved for date to the same as the cargo due date, but it cannot be in the past.
  • This date will also be required for KPI reporting/analysis.
    • Avg Time KPIs

Functionality

  • Provide option to turn on/off the Cargo Due Date Field on each planner role.
  • This cargo due date field is a Datebox

Summary

Cargo Due Date feature is entered to allow better optimization of truck utilization. It is a last possible date of shipment delivery and allows to Jaguar operator to know how long can be delayed shipment.

It is "PO issued by" specific. Showing the Cargo Due Date is an option for every "PO issued by" and can be managed from Admin section. It can be switched on/off only for double approval CT process which implies approving from Regular Planner and SuperPlanner. For single approval the showing of Cargo Due is not needed.

When super planner sets status to basic planner records that has Cargo Due Date values set

There are two different ways for planners to set a status for a CT record and the system must consider them both to allow.

Super Planner to set status: “Approved” for an already Approved Basic Planner CT record, that has the Due Date Set in the “72 hr window” Allow super planner to continue or change/reset the "Cargo Due Date” to a current future date

File:Approval 72 hrs.JPG


Super Planner sets status: “Approved” for an already Approved Basic Planner CT record that has the Due Date Set in the past Make super planner change & reset the "Cargo Due Date” to a current future date

Super Planner sets status: “Approved” for an already Approved Basic Planner CT record that has the Due Date Set in current / future Allow super planner to keep the current date value set by basic planner or replace to a current future date, tab view

  • Shipper role - on CT Shipment View (see IE below)
  • Planner role - On CT Shipment Vie (see IE below)

Editable:

  • operator role (internal) (until CT has load assigned)
  • basic planner (until status set to Approved or date is changed by Super)
  • super planner (until status set to Approved)

Integration with Descartes

  • Earliest & Latest Delivery Date = Cargo due date with time window from 9am to 5pm.
    • There is no need to increase the # of days to this date as it is a date that says that cargo cannot be delivered any later than that date set.
  • The TMS will consider the latest delivery date when creating the load and use that as the estimated delivery date for cargo.
  • It is ok to deliver before the Cargo Due Date it is NOT ok deliver after the cargo due date.

Cybertrax_2.1_Client_(requirements)#Hold_With_Approved_For_Pick_Up_On_Date_Status

Not Correct "Mandatory to set for basic but not for super" Changed 8/18 to Mandatory for both

This was not correct: Note: in this case some CTs will have empty date (if super approves without setting this date before basic does anything).

8/18 this is feature mandatory for both basic & super planner users.

If non jag user who has planner role with Cargo Due Date field on, then show this field when planner sets approval status to:

  • Cybertrax_2.1_Client_(requirements)#Approve_Status OR
  • Cybertrax_2.1_Client_(requirements)#Hold_With_Approved_For_Pick_Up_On_Date_Status
