Transport Order / Road Carrier

The “Road Carrier Partner Profile” has been enhanced to allow setting up the transmission of documents (attached to a transport order) as separate EDI messages (to the Document CC). The new fields is evaluated when generating the outbound transport order interface (xml), which will lead to separate outbound xml messages for each selected document.

 
star_green

Container Level Tracking

Track shipments on container level

 
star_green

Simple Shipment

Support Package-level Chargeable Weight in Simple Shipment

 
star_yellow Order Tracking When applying ‘Milestone Template Types’ for Seafreight in Milestone Templates, now only the generic event types are used as trigger (instead of the individual event types for each sea carrier portal).  
star_yellow B/L Instructions When initializing new B/L instructions for a given sea export shipment / master, the ‘freight terms’ are not initialized anymore. Also, a new validation has been implemented, which validates that the freight terms are set.  
star_yellow Ocean Carrier EDI The validation warning displayed in sea carrier edi bookings in case the location of the booking office is equal to the place of receipt has been removed.  
star_yellow Sea Export Consolidation When deconsolidating house shipments from a sea export master, the ports (departure / discharge) remain filled in the deconsolidated shipments.  
star_yellow

Sea Export/ Printing

A new print parameter requestedDeliveryTime has been added to the ExportShipmentMapProducer, which is also used for Booking Confirmations. This field is filled with the relating field of the sea export shipment and can now be used in forms.

 
star_yellow Counting & Invoicing Allow group by customer / technical reference on Counter  
star_yellow Simple Shipment/ Tour Processing Tour Number available as Hyperlink within Simple Shipment for quick transfer  
star_yellow Transport Order Total number of containers and/or TEU can be incorporated with the document  
star_yellow Ordertracking When receiving incoming Sea Carrier EDI events in Scope, these events are not duplicated anymore (by generating an event copy for the relating generic type). Ordertracking milestones/exceptions are now evaluated in the way, that received events are applied in case either the event type itself matches the triggering event type or the generic replacement type matches the triggering event type defined in the order tracking plan.  
star_yellow Prealert / EDI-Bkg-CC Prealerts inbound can now contain totals for packages/grossweight/volume and Prealerts outbound will also contain those   
star_yellow Sea Export Sea export shipment general tab: displays the status of the B/L instructions transmission (adequate to the status of the vermas message)   
star_yellow Dakosy Appliance A new optional column "clerk" / "Sachbearbeiter" is available and the displayed person represents the "clerk" of the outgoing dakosy message (ie. HDS, IMP, BL, Quay Order)  
star_red Ocean Export/Import When opening a shipment / master the appliance now checks for “duplicate” use of same handling units (for the shipment / master and each of the relating transport orders). In case a handling unit is used in a container and also on top-level (directly in the shipment or transport order), the one in the container will be kept, while the other one will be removed.  
star_red Ocean Export Master Fixed loosing house goods on a consol master, which occurred under specific circumstances only (master with a container and a container pickup order).  
star_red Prealert (inbound) To allow setting up a proper environment for inbound prealert xmls additional checks have been implemented, which will be applied in case the existing methods lead to no (or multiple) result(s). In that case only EDI mappings of EDI customers will be checked and if that still leads to multiple results, an additional check will search for mappings including the sender code.  
star_red Printing Sea export customer specific forms now again allow printing handling units of the relating export shipment.  
star_red TransportOrder / Printing When printing container pickup or container delivery orders, the print parameters starting with 'addressContainerInfos' are now sorted according the order of pickup/delivery addresses defined in the transport order. That means in case a container first should be picked up at address A, then at address B, etc. above print parameters are sorted accordingly.  
star_red Ocean Carrier ED

Wrong Timezone in Infor Nexus Event

(Fixed in OCE CC Plugin v2.2.41 deployed on 11. Sept. 2023)

 
star_red Prelaert Height taken also for Length within Generic Prealert XML DIMS element  
star_red Portbase / Ordertracking When receiving events, generated from Portbase Cargo Controller messages in Scope, these events now can trigger / complete ordertracking milestones / exceptions automatically. In the past, some events (Portbase discharge, inspection and customs events) did not trigger the ordertracking. This fix is also backported to Scope 23.8  
star_red Prealert / Containermonitor Deleting unused Prealerts by a background job during the night (every night at 3 am) was throwing an exception since Scope 23.4. This is fixed now and backported to 23.6 and 23.8 (Reason was a missing partnerOID for Jobs to delete relating Container Handling Units).  
star_red Generic Transport Order RSIXML2 generated for Transport Order (FCL pick up order delivery) now contains totals for packages and gross weight while the Generic Transport Order XML does not yet contain > follow up ticket for next release  
star_red Shipment Creation If the shipper or consignee is deleted during the initial shipment creation this triggers that the customer is deleted as well as long as the shipment is not yet saved  
star_red Sea Export / Sea Import / Bookings Place of receipt not defaulted from shippers nearest UNLOCode if UNLOCode is not a seaport.  
star_red Scope Connect Enable dimensions for seafreight
