Logistical statuses

This page describes how logistical statuses are used within the Tradecloud One portal.

Description of the Logistical statuses

The logistical status of an order indicates where the order is in the physical stream of the goods from the supplier to the buyer. The following logistical statuses are used by Tradecloud:

Open	The physical location of the goods is unknown or not (yet) applicable.
Produced	The production of the goods is completed, but the goods are not yet ready to ship. (Eg. because an inspection is required)
Ready to ship	The goods can be shipped to the final destination.
Shipped	The goods are shipped.
Delivered	The goods are delivered to the final destination

Note: it is not required to use all statuses in your logistical process.

Where logistical statuses are used

Tradecloud uses logistical statuses on three levels, namely:

• on order level (aggregation of the Logistical statuses within the order)
• on order line level (aggregation of the Logistical statuses within the order line)
• on order delivery line level

Delivery lines are the positions in the delivery schedule of the order line. Eg. if there is only one delivery moment identified, then an order line has one delivery line. If there are two delivery moments identified, then an order line has two delivery lines.

Filtering on the logistical status

It is possible to filter on the logistical status In the orders as well as order line overview.
Filtering can be done in the order overview based on the logistical status on order level & delivery line level.
In the order line overview, this can be done on order line level & delivery line level.

The toggle in the search box indicates on which level you filter.

Updating the logistical status of a delivery line

By the supplier

The logistical status can be updated by suppliers via the portal at any time, regardless of the process status of the order line. Also, the supplier can provide an ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) & ETD (Estimated Time of Departure) when updating the logistical status of a delivery line.
