Shipping round

This tab summarizes the characteristics of the selected round (number, shipment date and time, transport code, transport mode, transport reference and quay).

Inter-site: used to stipulate if the round is of "inter-site" type or not.

• If this is the case, the round has the type "inter-site" and its destination is another site. In which case the next field, "destination site", must be entered.
• If this is not the case, the round destination is the final customers.

Destination site: used to indicate the destination site of an "inter-site" round. This field is mandatory when the previous parameter has been set to 'yes'.

• The destination site must be different from the current site.
• The destination site must belong to the same folder as the current site.

Upon confirmation of an "inter-site" round, several documents dedicated to this type of shipment are generated (according to set-up):

- Inter-site delivery note (TNSBL) => 1 inter-site DN by DO present in the round, according to the output configuration set-up (depositor level set-up).

- Inter-site carriage receipt (TNSRT) => 1 inter-site CR by ship-to customer present in the round, according to the carrier record set-up.

- Inter-site carriag note (TNSRT) => 1 inter-site CN by inter-site round, according to the carrier record set-up.

For each of these 3 documents, if the set-up is not performed for the "inter-site" type shipments, the 'normal' documents will be the ones to be printed.

Step 1: Select the lines of the DOs to be shipped or right-click on "Check all" so that the system detects all the DOs that can be shipped.

A certain number of checks are carried out upon selection, namely:

For DOs without packing, there is at least one output movement to be shipped (neither deferred, nor cancelled upon shipment, nor cancelled upon preparation).

For packed DOs, the system ensures that, in addition with the condition above, all those operations necessary to the DO processing have been carried out. This is dependent on the DO context.

For instance, it will not be possible to ship an unloaded DO if the DO configuration provides for load management.

Likewise, it will not be posible to ship a partly palletized DO, even if the DO shipping configuration does not mention any load checking phase. In this instance, it is necessary to postpone or delete those parcels or SUs that must not be shipped via the corresponding functions.

Step 2: Selecting the "Save" button validates the action.

Controls: the DOs of the SUs to be shipped can be shipped (these controls are carried out to avoid accepting that a SU be shipped in several phases).

Processing:
For the unshipped DOs of the round, because they are not advanced enough, or they are deferred or not selected: DOs are automatically disallocated from the round.

For the only partly shipped DOs (in case of deferment): they remain assigned to the original round and will have to be manually reallocated to another shipment round.

For the shipped round:
Update of the Validated status and calculation of the weight/volume/LM information actually shipped.
Creation of a Carriage Note (CN) by shipment round.
Creation of a Carriage Receipt (CR) by ship-to customer code.
Creation or modification of the final or temporary Delivery Note (DN).

For the shipped DOs, according to the DO configuration:
Update of the statuses of the entities shipped with status 9-Shipped,
Update of the shipped quantities of the DO lines
Calculation of the DO balance if the balance management is activated at DO level.

The CN and the CRs are printed based on the set-up of the carrier associated with the round.

The DN and the packing list are printed based on the configuration of the outputs of the shipped DO.
