If the system is able to find matching selling contracts (Sellings) or quotations, these are displayed in the lower section.

After you have selected a quotation (by activating its checkbox and confirming with OK) to transfer to TMS, confirm the system query to accept the quotation.

System query: Accept quotation?

Selling contracts in ECM can be combined. A second query appears:

System query: Quotation as combinational tariff

  • When selecting a contract (selling), the number is accepted into the order without a further system messages.

  • If you manually enter a contract into the ECM Service Contract (Sell.) field (without using the search function), the system checks whether the contract number exists in ECM as selling or quotation as soon as you leave the field.

 

If the selling contract does not exist or if the order data do not match the contract, the program does not save the number and clears the field.
CargoSoft issues a warning message.

System information: Contract number is invalid

If the entered number is a quotation, another query appears, asking whether the quotation is to be accepted to ECM.
