Shipment Ship Unit Line Detail

This page is accessed via:

  • Shipment Management > Shipment Management > Buy Shipments or Sell Shipments. Then click New Stop or Edit an existing stop. From the Shipment Stops page, click New Ship Unit. Then click New Ship Unit Line.
  • Shipment Management > Shipment Management > Shipment Ship Unit Line

Use this page to describe the content of the shipment by identifying the specific line items. Create/edit a line item by completing the appropriate fields.

Note: If this shipment was planned from an order release, the ship unit line data from the order release appears on this page.

  1. Enter a Packaged Item ID. This field identifies the packaged item being shipped.
  2. Enter an Item.
  3. Enter the Total Packaged Count, which is the number of packaged items.
  4. Enter the Hazmat Item ID. It is the line item ID. For hazardous material, the line item ID is compared to rules for carrying hazardous material that affect whether you can print a bill of lading. Set up the rules for carrying hazardous material in the Hazardous Material Manager.
  5. The Order Base ID field identifies the order base from which the order release identified in the next field was created. This helps you trace the shipment line items back to their original order release and parent order base. This field automatically populates based on the order release that was used to build the shipment, if Oracle Transportation Management planned the shipment (not a Shipment As Work).
  6. The Order Release ID field identifies the order release on which the line item was originally recorded if the shipment was planned from an order. If you add additional line items on a shipment after it has been planned you should assign an existing order release so you can recalculate shipment costs. This field automatically populates with the order release ID that was used to create the shipment, if Oracle Transportation Management planned the shipment (not a Shipment As Work)
  7. Select a Packaging Unit to define how the item is packaged. For example, a case of soda.
  8. Enter a Packaging Unit Count to define the number of packaging units. For example, if your packaging unit is Case, the count represents the number of cases.
  9. Enter a Net Weight and Net Volume. Net weight/volume displays the weight/volume of a product without any handling units or packaging. For some shippers this would include the weight/volume of the carton. However, the net weight/volume may define the quantity of usable product. In all cases, it does not include the weight/volume of the ship unit such as a pallet.
  10. The Order Release Line ID field identifies the line item that was originally recorded on the order release and used to produce this shipment.
  11. Rated Commodity ID and Rated Commodity Name are read-only fields and provide the user-defined commodity associated with the shipment.
  12. The group of Received fields can be used to record the appropriate Received values for the ship unit in terms of gross/net weight and volume, as well as count. You can enter these values here or you can set up an agent that can copy these values from shipment tracking events that are recorded for the shipment.

    Note: These values are not used in shipment planning or rating. They are only used for visibility purposes.

  13. The Declared Value field allows you to allocate the shipment cost by the value of the product. See Allocation Method.
  14. The Weight/Volume/Count per Ship Unit fields allow you to record the weight/volume/count that a packaged item uses per ship unit since the Total Net Weight and Volume show values for all packaged items.
  15. The Marine Pollutant and Hot Indicator check boxes are copied from the Hazmat Item and are for information only.
  16. Tag fields can be used to enter any additional numeric (1-9) attributes that you want to further describe the line item. These fields are for information only and can represent data such as the serial number of the item.
