This chapter contains the following topics:
Delivery documents provide delivery instructions for a shipment or load. They also record the transfer of ownership of the products to the customer. Some delivery documents might also specify the product price and additional charges.
In the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Transportation Management system, you can define the documents that are printed throughout the shipping process. You also specify the print application that the system uses to print the document, how the document number is determined, the printer to which the document is sent, and whether to use pre-numbered forms.
This section provides overviews of document setup, document next number setup, document printing program setup, document sets, and document depot information setup and discusses how to:
Set up document next numbers.
Set up document printing programs.
Set processing options for Transportation Bill of Lading Build (R49110).
Set processing options for Transportation Bill of Lading (R49115).
Set processing options for Transportation Bill of Lading (R49118).
Set processing options for Loading Note/Load Tender Report (R49120).
Set processing options for Shipment Document Workfile Build (R49130).
Set processing options for Shipment Manifest Print (R49135) and Master Bill of Lading Print (R49137).
Set processing options for SSCC Label Workfile Build (R49140).
Set processing options for Shipping Document Print - Loads (R49548) and Shipping Document Print - Shipments (R49549).
Set up document sets.
Set up document depot information.
You must set up delivery documents before you can print them. This setup includes these items:
Item | Description |
---|---|
Document next numbers | Document next numbers provide a numbering system for the shipping documents. Next numbers can be used for pre-numbered forms or plain forms that are not pre-numbered. |
Document printing programs | These programs enable you to associate a program and version with each type of delivery document that you must print. |
Document sets | Document sets enable you to group the documents by customer or item for quicker processing. |
Document depot information | Document depot information enables you to set up documents that are specific to each depot that you have. You also can define multiple depots for the documents. |
You must define a range of document next numbers that the system uses when automatically assigning numbers to the various delivery documents. You must specify the range and format for each document next number. You can specify document next numbers at the company, sales region, or depot level.
If you use forms that are not pre-numbered, you must specify the number that the system uses to identify the next form. If you use pre-numbered forms for printing documents, you must synchronize document next numbers with the current form numbers.
You set up document printing programs to associate a program and version with each type of delivery document that you must print. For example, you can specify that the system use the Transportation Bill of Lading Build program (R49110) to print bills of lading. If you have created a particular version of a program to meet specific business requirements, you can indicate the version number that corresponds to the custom version.
You also define the document codes that correspond to the delivery documents that the organization uses. For example, you might define the code for bills of lading as BOL.
This list identifies common document codes and the documents to which they refer:
Code | Documents |
---|---|
BOL1 | Transportation Bill of Lading Build (R49110). You typically use this program to print bills of lading. The default version is ZJDE0001. |
BOL2 | Demand Scheduling Bill of Lading (R49110). You typically use this program to print bills of lading. The default version is ZJDE0002. |
MBL | Master Bill of Lading Print (R49137). You typically use this program to print master bills of lading. The default version is ZJDE0002. |
INV1 | Print Invoices (R42565). You typically use this program to print invoices. The default version is ZJDE0001. |
MAN1 | Shipment Manifest Print (R49135). You typically use this program to print manifests. The default version is ZJDE0001. |
PKL | Packing List Print (R49141P). You typically use this program to print packing lists. The default version is ZJDE0001. |
You can also specify whether the document that is associated with a code is a primary delivery document, a primary invoice document, or both. In addition, you can specify the level of the document, such as whether the document is a load-level, line-level, or shipment-level document.
You can indicate whether you want the system to perform a freight update whenever it prints a particular type of delivery document. Consolidating batch programming can reduce time and effort.
A document set enables you to logically group delivery documents by customer or item. The document sets that you set up work directly with the Document Set preferences to match the documents with a customer and item number.
You set up document depot information to specify the types of documents that you use at a particular depot. For each depot, you also set up this information:
Optional printers
Form type used
Pre-numbered forms used
You can optionally define up to five printer names for each depot. If you do not complete this task, the documents print at the default printer.
You can specify that the printer must be loaded with standard paper or special forms. If you use pre-numbered forms, you define controls to produce pre-numbered documents. This is the only place in the setup process where you indicate that you use pre-numbered forms. You must define the source of the document next number for a specific document type in a specific depot. You can also define how many pages you want to use during the paper alignment process.

Access the Document Next Number form.
Enter the user-defined code (UDC) (00/DT) that identifies the origin and purpose of the transaction. Several prefixes are reserved for document types such as vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets.
Enter the code that identifies a specific organization, fund, or other reporting entity. The company code must exist in the Company Constants table (F0010) and must identify a reporting entity that has a complete balance sheet. At this level, you can have intercompany transactions. You can use company 00000 for default values such as dates and automatic accounting instructions, but you cannot use company 00000 for transaction entries.
Verify or enter the business unit that is required for management reporting, such as a profit center, department, warehouse location, job, project, work center, branch/plant, and so forth.
Enter the number the system uses the next time a document of the specified type is produced. This number must fall within the range that is designated in the Assigned From and Assigned To fields.
Enter the first number in the range of sequence numbers between which the document numbers should fall.
Enter the ending number in the range of sequence numbers between which the document numbers should fall.
Insert digits in the document number to represent the fiscal year. Values are:
Y or 1: Embed the year. The last two digits of the fiscal year (04 from 2004) are imbedded in the first and second position of the resulting document number. For example, 04123456 would represent 2004 and 00123456 would be the sequential portion of the number.
S or 9: Embed the year. The last digit of the fiscal year (4 from 2004) are imbedded in the first position of the resulting document number. For example, 41234567 would represent 2004 and 01234567 would be the sequential portion of the number.
N or 0: Do not embed a digit in the document number.
Embed digits in the document number to represent the month. Values are:
Y or 1: Embed two digits. The digits representing the month (such as 03 for March) are embedded in the third and fourth positions of the resulting document number. For example, 03001234 would represent the 03 from March and 00001234 would be the sequential portion of the number. If the year is also imbedded, 04031234 would represent 04 from 2004 and 03 from March.
N or 0: Do not embed a digit in the document number.
Enter a number that, with the document number, document type, and general ledger date, uniquely identifies an original document such as invoice, voucher, or journal entry. If you use the Next Numbers by Company/Fiscal Year feature, the Automatic Next Numbers program (X0010) uses the document company to retrieve the correct next number for that company.

Indicate the code with which the system searches cross-reference information using a customer item number. Cross-references associate the internal item numbers with the customer's item numbers.
