To create an LTL carrier preference:
Field | Description |
---|---|
PRO Number Generation Scheme | One of the following
actions is initiated based on the Generation
Scheme selected:
|
Carrier | Choose the carrier whose PRO Number Generation Scheme is being defined. |
System Generated | Select System Generated if the Sterling Warehouse Management System should generate PRO Numbers. |
Externally Generated | Select Externally Generated if the Sterling Warehouse Management System should use PRO Numbers generated by an external system. |
Do Not Generate | Select ‘Do Not Generate' if PRO Numbers should not be generated. |
Set up data for System Generated scheme | This is applicable only when the Sterling Warehouse Management System generates the PRO Numbers. |
PRO Number Sets | When the first range of PRO Numbers is used up, the Sterling Warehouse Management System utilizes the second range of PRO Numbers, and vice versa. |
PRO Number Set - 1 | Defines the first range of PRO Numbers to be used by the Sterling Warehouse Management System. |
PRO Number Prefix | Enter
the PRO Number Prefix to be used in generating the first
range of PRO Numbers. PRO Number Prefix can be alpha numeric, and is not included for computing the check digit. |
PRO Number Start | Enter
the PRO Number Start to be used in generating the first
range of PRO Numbers. PRO Number Start is the starting number for the first set of PRO Numbers. |
PRO Number End | Enter the PRO Number
End to be used in generating the first
range of PRO number. PRO Number End is the ending number for the first set of PRO Numbers. |
PRO Number Set - 2 | Defines the second range of PRO Numbers to be used by the Sterling Warehouse Management System. |
PRO Number Prefix | Enter
the PRO Number Prefix to be used in generating the second
range of PRO Numbers. PRO Number Prefix can be alpha numeric, and is not included for computing the check digit. |
PRO Number Start | Enter
the PRO Number Start to be used in generating the second
range of PRO Numbers. PRO Number Start is the starting number for the second set of PRO Numbers. |
PRO Number End | Enter the PRO Number
End to be used in generating the second
range of PRO Numbers. PRO Number End is the ending number for the second set of PRO Numbers. |
Notification Threshold | Enter the
notification threshold at which an alert is raised
to the user. This gains importance in instances where the second set
of PRO Numbers is not defined. The notification threshold defines the number of unassigned PRO Numbers available till the PRO Number End. This enables the warehouse to talk to the carrier and get a new range of PRO Numbers. Note: If
the PRO Number End is X, and the notification threshold is set to
50, the Sterling Warehouse Management System raises
an alert to the user, when the current PRO Number (unassigned) reaches
X-50.
|
Notification Service | Choose Notification Service to be used. Notification Service is the service that is invoked when Notification Threshold is reached. |
Check Digit Determination | Defines the check digit determination algorithm to be used for PRO Number Generation. |
Select Algorithm | Choose the relevant algorithm for check digit
determination. Typical values are MOD11, MOD10, INT10, CWC7, TSU11, NWTP7, MOD7, UPS, and NOCHECKDIGIT. Notes:
