Database Modifications

A new field will be added to the EPOD_PRODUCT table, called EPL_CUST_REF. This will be a 30-character field.

Data Interfacing

Data interfacing has been discussed with the Whiteline technical resource (Ian Finch of IFCon). The interfacing will be through a modified version of the standard Web Service XML structures.

All import data will be sent from the host system to the ePOD Web Service.

All export data will re requested by the host system from the ePOD Web Service. This will be requested based on a single day to be updated.

Import

The import XML will be modified to include a new tag EPL_CUST_REF within the EPOD_PRODUCT container tag, as follows:

<xsd:element name="EPL_CUST_REF" nillable="true">
  <xsd:simpleType>
    <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
      <xsd:maxLength value="30" />
    </xsd:restriction>
  </xsd:simpleType>
</xsd:element>

When received within an EPOD_LOADS or EPOD_JOBS tag, this will be saved to the new field against the EPOD_PRODUCT table.

Export

The export XML will be modified to include a new tag EPL_CUST_REF within the EPOD_PRODUCT container tag, as follows:

<xsd:element name="EPL_CUST_REF" nillable="true">
  <xsd:simpleType>
    <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
      <xsd:maxLength value="30" />
    </xsd:restriction>
  </xsd:simpleType>
</xsd:element>

Requests for data through the Web Service (ePOD_DataService.asmx) will require an XML message structure to define what data is being extracted. The structures follow:

Load by Load ID

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xsd:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xsd:element name="EPOD_EXPORT_LOAD">
    <xsd:complexType>
      <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="EPL_LOAD_ID" type="xsd:string" />
      </xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_ID" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_PASSWORD" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_SITE_ID" type="xsd:string" />
    </xsd:complexType>
  </xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

Only the specified Load will be returned.

Load by Date

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xsd:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xsd:element name="EPOD_EXPORT_LOAD_DATE">
    <xsd:complexType>
      <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="EPL_LOAD_END_ACTUAL_DATE" type="xsd:string" />
      </xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_ID" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_PASSWORD" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_SITE_ID" type="xsd:string" />
    </xsd:complexType>
  </xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

Only Loads that have been completed or cancelled on that date will be returned.

Job by Job ID

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xsd:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xsd:element name="EPOD_EXPORT_JOB">
    <xsd:complexType>
      <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="EPL_JOB_ID" type="xsd:string" />
      </xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_ID" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_PASSWORD" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_SITE_ID" type="xsd:string" />
    </xsd:complexType>
  </xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

Only the specified job will be returned.

Job by Date

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xsd:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xsd:element name="EPOD_EXPORT_JOB">
    <xsd:complexType>
      <xsd:sequence>
        <xsd:element name="EPL_END_ACTUAL_DATE" type="xsd:string" />
      </xsd:sequence>
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_ID" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_USER_PASSWORD" type="xsd:string" />
      <xsd:attribute name="EPL_SITE_ID" type="xsd:string" />
    </xsd:complexType>
  </xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

Only Jobs that have been completed or cancelled on that date will be returned.

Note: It is expected that this implementation will use the Job By Date export.

The exported file will follow the standard XML export structure, specified in Appendix B. The element below must be added to the EPOD_JOB tag:

<xsd:element name="EPL_INVOICED" nillable="true">
  <xsd:simpleType>
    <xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
      <xsd:maxLength value="1" />
    </xsd:restriction>
  </xsd:simpleType>
</xsd:element>

Customer Reference

A new field EPL_CUST_REF will be added to the EPOD_PRODUCT table.

It will not be necessary to view this through the Admin screens. However it will be necessary to view this on the PDA Client.

This will be achieved by allowing the user to long-click on a product in the grid on the Product tab of the Delivery screen. This will pop up a menu with a Details option against it. When selecting this option, the screen will display a new form, showing:

EPL_PRODUCT_CODE
EPL_DESCRIPTION
EPL_CUST_REF
EPL_PRODUCT_QTY_PLANNED

An OK button will be provided to return the user to the Delivery screen Product tab.

Payment Received

After all products have been confirmed (as delivered or cancelled), the user will be directed to a new tab on the Delivery screen, labelled Payment.

The user can optionally check this box.

This information will be sent back to the Admin system through the standard interface, and stored against the EPOD_JOB table in the existing EPL_INVOICED field.

Note: This field should be added to the standard interface, as specified in the Export section.

Integrated Navigation

Note: Integrated navigation is being developed under OBS product development.

The PDA Job screen will be modified to add a Navigate button to the Contact tab. This will be positioned next to the Call button. When clicked, this will start the Co-pilot application, if it is not already running.

When started, the PDA client will pass the address details to the Co-pilot application, which will then plan the route to the destination.

The user will be able to complete the route as per the usual navigation process.

Once complete, the user can either stop the Co-pilot application, or simply hide it using the buttons provided within Co-pilot. Note: As Co-pilot takes several seconds to start and initiate a connection to GPS, it is recommended to leave the Co-pilot application running.

The coding for the Co-pilot integration is detailed within the SDK provided for this product.

The PDA client must initiate the application and the messaging service to the application before any addresses (stops) can be interfaced to the application. This should only be done if the application is not already running. There is no need to close the messaging queue or the application at any point other than when the PDA client is closed.

The PDA client must also listen for events back from Co-pilot. This is required at a minimum so that the PDA client can be aware of whether the Co-pilot application is running.

Bespoke POD Document

A new POC format will be created, labelled as "Whiteline". This will match as closely as possible the existing documents used by the client, as can be seen in Appendix A.

The elements displayed on the POD will be:

Delivery Drop Identifier - EPL_JOB_ID of EPL_JOB
Customer Name - EPL_CUSTOMER_NAME of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Delivery Address Line 1 - EPL_ADDRESS_1 of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Delivery Address Line 2 - EPL_ADDRESS_2 of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Delivery Town - EPL_ADDRESS_3 of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Delivery County - EPL_ADDRESS_4 of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Delivery Post Code - EPL_POSTCODE of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Planned Drop Time - EPL_START_PLANNED_TIME of EPOD_CUSTOMER
Item Identifier - EPL_PRODUCT_CODE of EPOD_PRODUCT
Customer Reference - EPL_CUST_REF of EPOD_PRODUCT
Description - EPL_DESCRIPTION of EPOD_PRODUCT
