1 Order Based Services Changes effective February 21, 2008 Dispatch Release Notes Order Based Services

2 Introduction Order Based Services is a group of 14 new and modified pop ups on Edit Shipment for collecting services information needed to produce accurate invoices and revenue distribution (RADS for ATVL 1000 and 400N shipments). Entering this information as services are performed on the shipment will prevent delays in producing accurate invoices and revenue distribution to the shipment participants. This presentation covers the first ten services, all of which are new pop ups in Dispatch. They include: --Bridge/Ferry --Truck Usage --Advanced Charges --Crating --Uncrating --Debris Removal --Labor --Overtime Load/Unload --Self-Mini Warehouse --Shuttle

3 Dispatch Release Notes Order Based Services Introduction In this initial implementation of Order Based Services, the services pop ups can only be created, edited and deleted by in-house users and members of the booker’s agency family. Future releases of Order Based Services will provide two important capabilities: 1. Allow a booker to assign another agent to a service, which will let that agent enter, edit and delete data only on that particular service. 2. Provide status fields on the services pop ups that agents can use to plan their services work. These two capabilities are not available yet; they will appear in future releases of Order Based Services.

4 Dispatch Release Notes Order Based Services Location Order Based Services are located in one of two places on Edit Shipment. Some Order Based Services are located in the links section of Edit Shipment, including: --Bridge Ferry --Truck Usage

5 Dispatch Release Notes Order Based Services Location The remaining services are located in the Services pop up on each stop. These include: --Advanced Charges --Crating (on pickup stops) --Uncrating (on delivery stops) --Debris Removal (on delivery stops) --Labor --Overtime --Self-Mini Warehouse --Shuttle As you add services to a stop, they will appear in the Services box for that stop like they do today.

The field definitions in this presentation appear in the tool tips for their respective fields. To view a tool tip, move your mouse over that field’s label. Move your mouse off the field label and the tool tip will disappear.
