Revising Shipment Information

Access the Shipment Revisions form.

To revise shipment information:

  1. Select the Shipment Revisions tab, and revise these fields:

    • Route Code

    • Zone Number

    • Scheduled Weight

      The shipment weight is qualified by a Weight Qualifier (WGQ) that identifies the type of weight.

    • Scheduled Volume

      The volume scheduled on a load or in a compartment.

  2. Select the Dates/Times tab, and revise any of these fields:

    • Promised Ship

      The promised shipment date for a sales order. This date represents the day that the item can be shipped from the warehouse.

    • Promised Delivery

    • Earliest Pickup Date

    • Latest Pickup Date

    • From Pickup Time

    • Thru Pickup Time

    • Scheduled Loading Time (minutes)

    • Earliest Delivery Date

    • Latest Delivery Date

    • From Delivery Time

    • Thru Delivery Time

    • Scheduled Unloading Time

  3. Select the Miscellaneous tab, and revise any of these fields:

    • Mode of Transport

    • Carrier Number

      A user-defined name or number that identifies an address book record. You can use this number to locate and enter information about the address book record. If you enter a value other than the address book number (AN8), such as the long address or tax ID, you must precede it with the special character that is defined in the Address Book constants. When the system locates the record, it returns the address book number to the field.

      For example, if address book number 4100 (Total Solutions) has a long address TOTAL, and an * distinguishes it from other entries (as defined in the Address Book constants), you could enter *TOTAL into the field, and the system would return 4100.

    • Freight Handling Code

      In Advanced Transportation Management, you can indicate who has responsibility for freight charges by entering these values in the first position of the Special Handling Code field in UDC table 42/FR:

      In the first position of the handling code, a 1 indicates that the freight charges are collect: the consignee is responsible for paying the freight charges. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Transportation Management system does not calculate collect freight charges for outbound shipments.

      In the first position of the handling code, a 2 indicates that freight charges are prepaid: the shipper is responsible for paying the freight charges. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Transportation Management system calculates the payable freight charges for outbound shipments, but does not calculate billable freight charges.

      Any other code in the first position of the handling code indicates that freight charges are prepaid and add: the shipper is responsible for paying the freight charges. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Transportation Management system calculates billable and payable freight charges.

    • Number of Pieces

      The number of pieces, pallets, containers, and so on that are part of a shipment.

      For shipments that do not have piece information defined in the Pieces table (F4943), the system calculates the estimated piece count by converting the quantity in the transaction unit of measure to the shipping unit of measure.

      To obtain the whole piece number, the system rounds the unit of measure down.

      The weight and volume of the leftover quantities from all detail lines are added and the sum total is divided by the maximum piece weight, maximum piece volume, or both.

      The system rounds the resulting piece weight or volume up to the next whole number. This number is added to the whole piece number to obtain the piece count

    • Number of Containers

      The number of shipping containers, pallets, and so on.

    • Dock ID

    • Reason Code

      A UDC (49/ES) that identifies the reason for excess transportation charges.

    • Responsibility Code

      A UDC (49/EC) that identifies the responsible party for excess transportation charges.

    • Authorization Code

      The authorization code for expedited shipment charges.
