Transport Management System

There are transaction specific filter options:

• Creation Date: when the transaction was sent out
• Process: Forwarder Pickup Advice (FPA) or Advanced Shipping Notification (ASN)

customer specific filter options (based on Control Point information):

• Legal Entity: Customer corporation units
• Buyside Plant Code: Customer internal number of plants
• Buyside Plant Country: The country the plant is located
• Buyside Plant: The name of the plant

and supplier specific filter options:

• Supplier ID: Customer  internal supplier reference id
• DUNS: Dun & Bradstreet Number as public identifier for suppliers
• Supplier Name: The company name of the supplier

Counting System

• We always count the line items of the transactions not the transactions themselves. This approach serves to improve the comparability of the data.

Further Transport Management specific information:

• There is a difference between network link existing and Logical File name existing. The network link describes the connection between a supplier and at least one customer plant, the logical file name indicates the processes for which the supplier was activated (FPA or ASN).
• Response Existing means that an object is no more in status "New". An object converts to "not new" by reading the details on the GUI, by printing via the print function, or via download.
• Please take in account that not all customers have a target process incl. response processes like ASN in place.

Transaction History (per Month)

This stacked column chart is an overview of the development of transactions over the year accumulated on a monthly base.

Currently only the last three calendar month are displayed.

The transaction bars are separated per process (FPA or ASN).

For the sum of all transactions check the line graph.

There are two x-axis on this chart:

• On the left side you find the axis labeling which gives information about the amount of the several transaction types and belong to the column bars.
• On the right side you find the axis labeling which gives information about the amount of total transactions and belong to the line graph.
