🌈 Feature improvements
Multimodal-Ocean: Container Milestones are not shown if no Shipping Container is added
Goal
To ensure clarity, Container Milestones will not be displayed unless a container is added to an ocean-related transport order.
Example view without Container Milestones:
Example view Container(s) added:
Containers can be added also later in the status of the Transport Order.
Multimodal-Ocean: Incoterm DAP consider booking type Door to Door and Port to Door
Goal
If Incoterm DAP is selected, it will be possible to select the booking type to Door to Door & Port to Door.
Formerly both booking types where not offered for the Incoterm.
Multimodal-Ocean: Option to skip calculated Vessel ETA/ETD provided Visibility Hub
Goal
Tracking data provided by Visibility product can be excluded, if the data is based on "calculation" of Visibility.
In some cases the customer gets the estimated timestamps from the ocean liner/forwarder directly communicated more accurate.
How to use
How to use
To disable receiving the "calculated" ETA/ETD of a Vessel the check box within the Transport order settings can be activated.
Default its deactivated and the calculated ETA/ETD of the Vessel will be processed
Multimodal-Ocean: Transport Mode calculation switching to rail mode code
Goal
Providing the information within the "Transport Mode code" column, if the transport contains Rail ports.
This happens as long it is Rail only or Rail + Road.
If the transport is an Multimodal transport containing Ocean, will Ocean stay as Main Transport Mode.
Until this release we have shown "Road" instead of "Rail"!
How to Use
How to Use
Create a Transport Order
Add 2 Rail stops
Transport mode code will be shown as "Rail"
Multimodal-Ocean: Show Container number within Milestone tooltip
Goal
Provide an easier view on container related Milestones, if multiple containers are within one Transport Order.
Multimodal-Ocean: Rate calculation "Ocean multimodal (Pre-leg per MO)"
Goal
Implement the Material Order (MO) feature to enhance our system's flexibility in managing complex transport scenarios, with a particular focus on buyers' consolidation orders.
The Material Order (MO) feature is designed to significantly improve our system's capabilities in handling intricate transport scenarios, especially in cases involving buyers' consolidation orders. This feature allows for separate cost calculations for different segments of multimodal ocean transport orders, including pre-leg, main leg, and on-carriage. By supporting pre-leg calculations based on individual Material Orders, the system becomes ideal for scenarios where multiple suppliers are involved. This approach enables more accurate and granular cost allocation, leading to better management and optimization of complex transport arrangements.
How to Use
How to Use
How It Works:
Pre-leg: Costs are calculated per Material Order, similar to the MO (Origin-Destination) logic
The calculation of the Rate applies from the Collection stop of a Material order until the Port of Loading to reflect the Buyers consolidation process from leg to leg
Main leg (Ocean): One cost calculation for the entire main leg
Port of Loading until Port of Unloading
On-carriage: One cost calculation for the final leg
Port of Unloading until Delivery
When to Use:
Ideal for Door-to-Door or Door-to-Port transport orders involving ocean freight
Particularly useful for consolidation orders with multiple suppliers in the pre-leg
Setting Configuration:
A new option "Ocean multimodal legs (Pre-leg per MO)" has been added to the Rate Calculation settings within the Transport Order Settings
Important Notes:
If applied to a non-Multimodal Ocean TO, the system will default to the "per TO" calculation method
For separate Pre-carriage TOs or no Pre-leg, the setting applies based on mulitmodal separate legs (e.g. Ocean + Road)
Cost Management: New attribute "Customers" within Surcharges configuration
Goal
If a fixed surcharge applies for a specific customer it shall be considered if the customer appears in one of the Material Orders.
For example you have aligned a fixed extra surcharge for the carrier ABC which appears always for this customer like any special equipment.
How to Use
How to Use
Go to Cost Management
Go to Surcharges
Select Purchase
Select Surcharge as Surcharge Type
Here you can select one customer per Surcharge cost
Its not possible to select multiple within one Surcharge
Cost Management: Improvement cleaning cost lines if carrier removed
Goal
A transport order with carrier and costs gets cleaned up if the carrier is removed or transport order moved to Spot.
Cost Management: New Rate Class for Surcharges By Unit (Any of)
Goal
The "By Unit (Any of)" rate class for surcharges allows customers to calculate separate surcharges for specific units (e.g., services, handling units, or shipping containers) on a Transport Order (TO). This feature enables more granular and flexible surcharge application.
The system will calculate and apply the surcharge as soon as the configured unit is present on the TO.
How to Use
How to Use
Create a new Rate Class for Surcharges (Surcharge Type = Surcharge)
Set Rate Class name to "By Unit (Any of)"
When this Rate Class is selected (only applicable if Surcharge Type = Surcharge):
Handling unit - Multiselect option available
Shipping containers - Multiselect option available
Services - Multiselect option available
Rules
The surcharge is applied if the configured Rate applies in a transport order (no check for other matching or configured Surcharges)
For Multi-select: The Rate applies even, if only one selected unit is present on the transport order
Example:
Service A: 2 pc
Service B: 4 pc
Service C: 5 pc
Rate: 1 euro / pc
If Service A and Service D are configured, the total cost would be 2 euro (2 pc x 1 EUR)
Handling unit Overwrite section improvement - Transport Order
Goal
To improve the handling of handling units gets overwritten in transport order level, the value to overwrite will be per handling unit type, the total will be calculated automatically. These will ensure also to consider the correct cost calculation e.g. if a the price is per Europallet different as per Plastic pallet.

New Notification for Scheduled Tasks
Goal
To be informed when a scheduled task was not able to run and disclose the reason for which it failed.
How to Use
How to Use
As an Admin, Enable the notification on the Right Management > Mastar data roles. It will enable the option on the My Alerts windows for each user:
Master data events > Order templates >
Failed TO creation from Scheduled Task
Failed SO creation from Scheduled Task
Failed MO creation from Scheduled Task
As an User, go to "My Alerts" and enable the in-app alerts or email notifications for the below items:
Failed TO creation from Scheduled Task
Failed SO creation from Scheduled Task
Failed MO creation from Scheduled Task
Displaying assets on the order
Goal
Enable assets to be visible in columns on the Material and Transport order grids
How to Use
How to Use
As an Admin, Enable the clumns on the Right Managemen > Control Tower roles. It will enable the column in the grid
Assets Code
Assets Names
Once it is enabled, you will be able to search the columns on the grid

Overriden a packaging code on a material order
Goal
To be able to override a packaging code defined on the masterdata directly on the material order form, shipping units.
How to Use
How to Use
Enable the "Packaging Code" on the Control Tower Roles on the Right Management menu.
Open a material order, go to the shipping unit section and select a line. You will be able to provide a new packaging code directly from this windows. When it is saved, the information will be overridden on the material line level for this specific order.
