Rate search and transfer on the Dispo ECM tab

The Dispo ECM tab is used to search for rates and transfer them from the CargoSoft GLA product ECM (Enterprise Condition Management) to TMS via webservice. The rates selected on this tab can then be used to create one or more service orders.

The determined rates are saved on the Calculation tab and from there can be accepted into the account sheet.

The total buying rate of the transport is displayed in the overview and in the header data of the service order. The order addresses and goods descriptions are pre-assigned accordingly. The selected service provider is displayed as well. If service provider tariff in ECM contains an original contract number, it is transferred to TMS via webservice and entered in the field Proposal number. 

The selected rates are transferred to the Calculation tab in the order.

Recalculate the rates for a service order

If a service order is changed, e.g. because the shipment data in the goods description have changed, you can recalculate the price on the Header data tab with the context menu item Calculate ECM.

The recalculation of the rates only modifies the buying rates within the service order and on the Calculation tab.

Service → Header data → context menu: Calculate ECM

The search mask is pre-assigned with data from the service order, not file data, based on settings made in the basic data.

This search mask can also be modified with the context menu.

Transfer the recalculated rates into the sevice order by activating the checkbox in the overview line and confirming with OK. Surcharges, etc. are automatically accepted as well.

The buying rate for this service order is updated accordingly. The purchase rates on the Calculation tab are updated accordingly.

The data of the service order are not updated with the data from the new search (service provider, weights, origin, destination, etc.)!

If the original buying rates had already been accepted into the account sheet as an accrual, the system does not automatically perform a correction! The new rates are additionally entered on the Calculation tab. The accruals that have been accepted into the account sheet must be canceled manually in the account sheet!
