CONTRACT

You can import contracts and tariffs through the standard Imports "CONTRACT" import format.

One will be set up for you and should be visible within the Imports Maintenance screen, accessed from C-TMS Modules, Maintenance, Imports.

Import contract.png

The import has been set up to allow you to pre-configure various data, and to upload the rest:

Pre-configured (FIXED) data:

  • CONTRACT_EFF_DATE
  • TARGET_EFF_DATE
  • CHARGE_EFF_DATE
  • PER
  • CURRENCY
  • CHARGE_TYPE
  • SERVICE_TYPE
  • COST_CENTRE

Variable (FIELD) data (in columns of a CSV file):

  1. COUNTER_PARTY
  2. TARIFF_NAME
  3. TIER_NAME
  4. TIER_LIMIT
  5. TIER_UNITS
  6. CHARGE_VALUE
  7. CHARGE_UNITS
  8. STJ_FROM
  9. STJ_TO

To use this, first change the FIXED data in the import to your desired values:

  • CONTRACT_EFF_DATE - the effective date from for the contract
  • TARGET_EFF_DATE - the effective date from for the tariff
  • CHARGE_EFF_DATE - the effective date from for the charge
  • PER - defaulting to 1
  • CURRENCY - the shared currency between the two parties.
  • CHARGE_TYPE - typically Order Revenue for customer contracts or Trip Cost for carrier contracts, but could be any charge types set up in the system.
  • SERVICE_TYPE - the delivery type.
  • COST_CENTRE - set to your cost centre, who will pay or receive payment, depending on the counter party (carrier or customer)

Next step in to prepare the import file. This should be a CSV file.

Details of the columns:

  1. COUNTER_PARTY - the carrier or customer code.
  2. TARIFF_NAME - a description of the tariff being configured
  3. TIER_NAME - a description of the tier being configured
  4. TIER_LIMIT - the limit to this tier
  5. TIER_UNITS - the unit being assessed by this tier. This could be any unit set up in the system.
  6. CHARGE_VALUE - the value charged per this charge line.
  7. CHARGE_UNITS - the unit being charged against
  8. STJ_FROM - the geographical range (standard journey) of this tariff.
  9. STJ_TO - the geographical range (standard journey) of this tariff.

Note Note: Standard journeys are formatted as type, then a colon (:) then the value, for example "C:GB" denotes a country range for the specific country "GB" as set up in the countries system data.

  • Type is one of the following:
    • "R" - Planning Region
    • "P" - Postal Region
    • "T" - Town
    • "C" - Country
    • "Z" - Zone
    • "L" - Location
  • Value is the specific ID of one of the types. For example, "GB" as set up in Countries.

You can then import the file through the Imports option on Administration, File Interfaces, Imports, if your user has been authorised to use the "Contracts" import format:

  • Find the format "Contracts"
  • Click Browse and find your CSV file.
  • Click Import and confirm any pop up messages.

You will then be able to see the contract in CTMS Modules, Maintenance, Contracts.


Example:

With the following fixed data:

  • CONTRACT_EFF_DATE - 01/01/23
  • TARGET_EFF_DATE - 01/01/23
  • CHARGE_EFF_DATE - 01/01/23
  • PER - 1
  • CURRENCY - GBP
  • CHARGE_TYPE - Order Revenue
  • SERVICE_TYPE - Standard
  • COST_CENTRE - POLAR-CC

and the following CSV: 

CLARITY,example,example: 9999 DU,9999,DU,19,DU,C:GB,C:GB

Will create the following contract:

Import contract example 1.png
Import contract example 2.png
Import contract example 3.png

The import can be modified so that you can change fixed values to variable fields, and then add columns to the CSV. You can also include charge conditions, standard journey, contract, tier and charge expiry dates, min and max charges, transport modes, etc.

TI_ORDER

The Import functionality will be used to upload selective master data into C-TMS during the initial implementation. It will also be used to upload Manifests from Suppliers. Each import is defined by a template created in the Imports section. More details on creation of imports can be found in the Imports page.

Each template defines each data field and its position within the uploaded data file. Fixed common values can be specified rather than including all the mandatory fields within the data file.


In order to conform to the CSV upload process in use by C-TMS, the initial line of each order must be configured with a line type of "ORDER_AND_LINE", and each subsequent line for the order configured with a line type of "LINE".

It is expected that there will be a CSV import template created for each customer, with certain defaults set against it, such as the customer itself and the location from which the product is to be collected.


Note Note: Orders can only be added or deleted through this interface, not modified.


The format allows the following to be specified:
