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.
