The following basic data settings are necessary to be able to use this interface.
Contents
Function in the order
COMPANY → ORDER TAB
For each client, the ACI (Airfreight!) main tab is activated in the sector Export and mode Airfreight by entering a number in the field that determines the placement in the row of main tabs.
ATTENTION: The ACI field must be activated exclusively for the ACI AIRFREIGHT.
COMPANY → COPY AND SPLIT
Section Copy → checkbox ACI data air
When copying a position, the ACI tab is not copied at all.
A function in the master data enables the transfer of the AWB data including ACI details when copying.
Activate the checkbox ACI data air.
Thus the Copy ACI checkbox is preallocated when copying an airfreight order and automatically copy the data from the ACI application to the new file.
ADMIN → EDI → EDI PARTNER
Create the EDI partner ACI.
Here userID is entered in the ID Sender field and accountID of the customer in the Own ID field.

Deposit ACI carrier code/forwarder code for ACI
The code requested for the branch (forwarder) is stored in the branch address.
The forwarder codes have 4 digits and start with an 8xxx.
On the sub-tab EDI References the carrier code for the qualifier ACICC is entered in the field Reference (add line in context menu).
AIRFREIGHT → CARRIER
Deposit ACI carrier code/airline codes for ACI
In airfreight, the prefix (IATA code) is used. This is automatically preallocated in the ACI tab.
Since the code always has 4 digits, a '-' is placed behind it, e.g. Lufthansa = 020-.
The Primary or Previous CCN in the ACI tab is the AWB number including the prefix.
The Carrier code fields in the ACI tab (HAWB) and in the ACI consolidation tab are preallocated.
CUSTOMS → CANADIAN CUSTOMS → ACI LOCATION CODES
ACI Location Codes are available for the ACI tab and must be used for the Port of Discharge (CBSA code) and Port of Destination/Exit (CSBA code) fields.
These codes are issued by Canadian Customs and must be sent as such when filing ACI.
In the columns Port Code and Sublocation Code you will find the information for the fields in the ACI tab and for storage in the master data → please see below.
Deposit ACI location codes at consignees address
In order for the locations to be pre-allocated in the ACI tab, they can be stored at the consignee.
In the address of the consignee, select the Address → EDI References sub-tab.
Qualifier | Name | Reference |
|---|---|---|
ACIAL | Port of Discharge - ACI Airfreight Location Code | Composed of the columns Port Code and Sublocation Code from the Location Codes. |
