Create a delivery schedule for the LTL tariff – suggested workflow

The following is a suggested workflow for creating a Delivery Schedule that would be appropriate for use for an LTL tariff. Note that not all required fields are mentioned.

1. Create Business Days Entry for Standard Work Week (if necessary). This step is only required prior to creating the first delivery schedule.

   Business Days ID	Description
   MTOF	Monday to Friday

2. Create Required Zones (if necessary). This step is only required if the zones used by the delivery schedule have not yet been established. In this example, the delivery schedule will use zones corresponding to different regions of the continental United States.

   For example:

   Zone ID	Country Code	States
   NENG	USA	CT,MA,ME,NH,RI,VT
   NEAST	USA	DC,DE,MD,NJ,NY,PA,VA,WV
   SEAST	USA	AL,AR,FL,GA,KY,LA,MS,NC,SC,TN,TX
   MIDW	USA	IA,IL,IN,KS,MI,MN,MO,OH,OK,WI
   PAC	USA	CA,ID,OR,WA
   WEST	USA	AZ,CO,MT,ND,NE,NM,NV,SD,UT,WY

3. Create Delivery Schedule
   • Create Delivery Schedule Header

   Delivery Schedule ID	CARX
   Primary Date Basis	Elapsed Days with Overrides
   Default Location Basis	Zone
   Business Days ID	MTOF

   • Create Delivery Schedule Timetables

   Timetable ID
   TIMETABLE2
   TIMETABLE3
   TIMETABLE4

   • Create Delivery Schedule Timetable Entries

   Timetable ID	Entry ID	Departure	Arrival	Elapsed Days
   TIMETABLE2	TIMETABLE2	17:00	09:00	2
   TIMETABLE3	TIMETABLE3	17:00	09:00	3
   TIMETABLE4	TIMETABLE4	17:00	09:00	4

   Departure will be assigned for Sequence 1 for each Timetable Entry. Arrival and Elapsed Days will be assigned for Sequence 2.

   • Create Delivery Schedule Itineraries

   Itinerary ID	Timetable ID	Itinerary Point 1	Itinerary Point 2
   AAAA	TIMETABLE2	NENG	NENG
   BBBB	TIMETABLE2	NENG	NEAST
   CCCC	TIMETABLE2	NENG	SEAST
   DDDD	TIMETABLE3	NENG	MIDW
   EEEE	TIMETABLE4	NENG	PAC

   IIII	TIMETABLE2	NEAST	SEAST
   JJJJ	TIMETABLE2	NEAST	MIDW
   KKKK	TIMETABLE4	NEAST	PAC
   LLLL	TIMETABLE3	NEAST	WEST
