Configuring PC*Miler Rail Web Services

Integration of OTM with PC*Miler Rail Web Services enables you to calculate distance. You have flexibility to use either PC*Miler Rail Connect or PC*Miler Rail Web Services.

Before you can use PC*Miler Rail Web Services, you must set the ExternalDistanceEngine properties in the property set. In order to use the PC*Miler Rail Web Services, configure the web services authentication credentials through properties defined below:

  • glog.ExternalDistanceEngine.PCMilerRailWS.AuthorizationKey
  • glog.ExternalDistanceEngine.PCMilerRailWS.WbserviceWSDLUrl

To get the distance using the PC*Miler Rail Web Services:

  1. Configure new ExternalDistanceEngine with javaclass "glog.business.rate.ratedistance.external.PCMilerRailEngineWS" and provide other required parameters like "ROUTE_TYPE", "SOURCE_ADDRESS_TYPE", "DEST_ADDRESS_TYPE" and so on. See External Distance Engine Parameters.
  2. Configure a new rate distance and map the configured external distance engine to it.
