The Overview tab is the main tab of the EDI order transfer.
Here you can select which order data will be displayed on the following tabs. Please mark the relevant lines and switch to the other tabs by mouse click or pressing F7/F8.
The context menu on this tab contains commands to select all orders, print the EDI lists and transfer the data into a CargoSoft file.
Search result
The search result is sorted in descending order based on
- Receive date
- Receive time
- UNB reference
- UNH reference
However, it is possible to change this sorting. Click on the column headers to switch between ascending and descending order.
On the Overview tab, you can use the cursor or arrow keys to switch between the individual orders. A scroll bar will appear on the right side if the result contains multiple orders.
The selected order is indicated in the title bar of the mask by the entry of UNB and UNH reference.

Further information about the EDI order
When transferring the EDI order into a CargoSoft file, the system transfers certain data of the tabs Reference and Transport into the header data.
Reference tab
On the Reference tab: UNB reference, UNH reference, EDI partner, send date and time, receive date and time, OB/L number, order number, weight and volume of the shipment.
Transport tab
On the Transport tab: locations with UN codes (place of receipt, port of loading, port of discharge, final destination), pick up date, ets, eta, eta final destination, and delivery terms.
Addr and Addr2 tabs
The addresses from the tabs Addr and Addr2 are accepted into the order as far as possible.
The basic data for EDI partners and EDI codes contain specific settings for the preallocation of addresses.
B/L tab
From the B/L tab, the system transfers the B/L number, POL and POD with UN code, final destination and movement.
The texts for the B/L remarks are now also entered in the order on the tab B/L → Remarks tab.
Text and Precarriage tabs
Data on the tabs Text and Pre-carriage are accepted into the memo upon order transfer.
Goods tab
The Goods description tab contains the sub tabs Additionals and Dangerous goods.
These tabs are only available if such additional information or dangerous goods exist.
The goods description is transferred to the goods description of the CargoSoft file.
Additionals sub tab
Data on the Additionals sub tab are transferred to the memo (with reference to the package file to identify the context).
Dangerous goods sub tab
Data on the Dangerous goods sub tab are transferred to the goods description → Dangerous goods.
Conversion table for EDI codes
CargoSoft uses a 'conversion table' to process specific commodity codes, dangerous goods classes or addresses from the EDI data.
The corresponding basic data application can be found in ADMIN → EDI → EDI code conversions in ADMIN.
