In this release, we have enhanced the Transport Booking EDI to group containers by delivery address.
For Jobs with multiple Containers where either the containers have:
- Alternate Delivery Addresses
- Alternate Transport Providers
Expedient will split the containers into groups and send 1 file(In their specified format) to each of the nominated Transport Providers per Delivery Address.
Activating this functionality for a Transport Provider can be done by the following steps:
- Find the Transport Provider’s Customer Masterfile record.
- Under the Transport Tab -> Transport Booking EDI Tab.
- Change “Customer Ref” flag to “External ID-Delivery Code”
This functionality will only be available for Transport Providers using the following systems
- CONTAINERCHAIN
- EXPEDIENT
- QUBE MAXIMAS
The “Customer Ref” field will not be visible for Transport Providers not listed above.
