Terminal scenario for freight booking

[former_member193027]

Hi,

We have a requirement of client whereby in std FWO , based on execution at various stages in pre ,on, main carriage we have the respective events being tracked on FO/FB level.Now this FWO has containers loading the cargo and at every point of container loading and discharge we have certain cost incurred in it and this cost are called as terminal handling cost and freight booking created for this purpose is called terminal freight booking  . Ex- for loading 20"GP container loading charge is 1500 EUR /container and similarly during discharging the unloading charge is 1200 Eur/container.Note that this cost is purely based on activity cost.

Now client wants to implement EM for the sole purpose to display to the operations from holistic perspective the freight booking both from execution perspective ( from FWO) and FB for handling terminal cost as well associated with this terminal FB.

Hence can the experts kindly inform wheather a) its possible to display the cost at activity level for the terminal FB and

b) secondly on a end to end perspective how can we link the terminal booking to the original FB which is speciifed in FWO.One logic which client uses is that based on container ID in FWO/FB , the system should search in EM web UI using container ID 20"GP and it should link both FWO as well as terminal FB but I am not sure how will system do this linking and display the result as a whole

Hi Dipak,

What is terminal booking here and How do you create it?

Assuming I understand your scenario, I would create:

1) FB EH with Container and FWO as Parameters.

2) Terminal FB EH with Container as Parameter. Maybe FB and FWO as parameters ( provided you can establish relation between FWO and Terminal FB ). Let's assume you cannot find relation and no parameters.

3) Container EH with regular FB as a Parameter. You can do this during FB creation Event Type. Send an Event from FB Event Type to Container EH.

4) Post the Costs related events on Terminal FB EH and resend to container EH or vice versa depending on your tracking id

5) From Container, resend the Events to regular FB EH.

Now you have your events ( lot of duplication here though ) on your objects and you can display it as you want in UI.

If you already have the TM setup, please add the document flow tab screen shot to understand it better.

Thanks,

Vishnu

Hi,

Terminal booking is nothing but a FB but this FB is not visible in the stage stab of FWO.
