Top of Page Order Message file Pack Message file Despatch Message file Transport Message file The Oasis Integration simplified... What is The Oasis...? The OASIS is the 3T process for integrating with Event. Order and Packing data in, carrier allocation and labels out What is Event..? Event is the 3T Transport Management Platform. Where you can control the transportation of your product to your customers. So you are creating the ability to put your order data into a format that can be used for: Routing Carrier selection Label creation Costing Reporting What does Event do with the order information? Event has integrations with all the main parcel carriers. Providing a direct link to your account information, services available and tariffs. It will select the best carrier and service option, provide cost visibility, labels and tracking updates. This integration is used for dedicated parcel requirements, where a customer is packing boxes of picked goods that are being delivered through the parcel network, rather than a few parcels in a predominantly bulk freight environment It is different because it uses PACK messages aswell as order messages, as for optimal parcel deliveries we need actual packed weight and dimensions to get the correct service level and cost from your selected carrier How does parcel integration work? You will need to be able to send Event accurate, live order information. In the below order... A new order, when 1st received Sent in advance A PACK message, when orders are packed Send at the time the orders are packed into the packaging ORDER message The order message is the order, date, addresses and products. We require this as the order request. We hold it until it is PACKED PACK message A PACK message is a separate message file. It is the Handling Unit, the box, parcel, jiffy... It includes the dimensions and weight so that the correct carrier, weight and service can be selected. It is created when the user in the warehouse packs the customer order into the required packaging. Once you have sent the PACK message, Event will automatically select the carrier, service level and provide a label to to printed and added to the package. Transport Update (Return) message This is a message we will send to you each time your user physically prints a label for a HU Despatch message This is a message that you will sent to us when you physically despatch a HU or shipment. This can be a combination of HU's. Where do we start? Where do i get the specification? This is the specification for designing your integration Order Message File (OMF) Order Message file The OASIS OMF schema 11-05-2021 .daf file The OASIS OMF xsd 29-04-2021 .daf Sheet 1 = The specification.

The OASIS Return 29-04-2020 .wmt file The Return message will be sent back to you as each label is PRINTED. What does NEW, UPDATE etc actually mean? UPDATE prefix to an order file This is a change made to an existing NEW. For example, your customer service team update the required products on an order. You will generate and send the same format as the NEW file but with a PREFIX of UPDATE and the new products. Not just the required products fields but the whole order message again. Our process will check the order number, look for the prefix and then identify the update made. Then make this update in Event for the operations team. Do you need to build an update process? The majority of our parcel customers donot use the update process, adding NEW orders as required. In most cases the orignal order is replaced by a new order. CANCEL prefix to an order file In this integration the Order Message file (OMF) is not actioned until the items are packed ready to be sent and the PACK message is received. If we donot receive a PACK message for an Order we will simply not action it. So no cancellation messages are required What if the order message fails? Event has an import error function that picks up on failed schema and bad data for correction What file name do I use? The file name will be your agreed Account name and a date/time stamp. The time to seconds. Example: 'ACMEPACKAGING11102020234712' What am I creating? You will use the specification to design your own integration based on the data you want to send. Making sure you have included all the required data fields. You are creating a service to generate and send an xml file from a trigger in your business for: When a NEW order is created When a parcel is physically PACKED How am I sending it? It will be either ftp or sftp. You can set this up or we can for you It is triggered each time a new order is created, or PACK received What do you do now? Lets get started. Define your operational process to create your integration Use the spreadsheet to get the required data Use the xml examples to help build your order message files. When you are ready to test, we can provide an environment for you. We can help check and validate your integration. Send us your OASIS integration spreadsheet Create the xml using the example and send to us for each prefix for an example order Ask us any questions What else do i need to know?

CONNECT dynamic availability Updating availability for connect carriers Orders allocated to Stops. Stops creating Routes. Routes allocated to carriers... But how do you know how many of each carrier? When automating a process, having accurate data to work with is really important for getting a good result So when allocating routes to carriers its really useful to know things like the number of routes to allocate to them. There's no point letting Event get all smug allocating routes to the cheapest carrier if that carrier can only do 50% of them. To this end, Event improves accuracy by allocating carriers based on quantity of trucks they have but also: by day select a day of the week to allocate an available quantity of trucks to by country select a country for the availability allocation. This will default to your address country by region select the specific region for the availability allocation. Region is only for UK. by quantity the number of trucks available for the day, country, region selection by equipment type select the equipment available for the day, country, region combination by period of day select what part of the day the trucks are available. Connect and allocate Carrier availability is allocated by carrier through Carrier Vitals. It has a user interface so that you can see whats added and 2 ways to add: manually adding each item individually This function can also be used to edit or delete specific items. Please see the guide further down this page on how to add manually by import file using the provided template to create an import file. This is a good option when you have many variations to add. Please see the guide further down this page on how to use the template Use the rate card template below and follow the instructions here to upload it. * There is not set requirement for naming a rate card upload file. Carrier availability template 12-02-2019 - AP How to build a rate card Groupage, LTL, FTL, EXW carriers all need a rate card in Event... This guide will step through how to build a rate card Vitals For a carrier to be available in Event, they must have a rate for the destination. The rate can be 0.00. Use the template provided below. Account ID This is the Event Account ID Account ID in Event This is the location of the Account ID in Event UI Vitals For a carrier to be available in Event, they must have a rate for the destination. The rate can be 0.00. Use the template provided below. 1/3 Dynamic Carrier availability Carrier availability can be set in advance from a tender and does not change throughout the course of the tender or you, as the Account owner can allow your connected carriers to update their allocation A contacted carrier cannot reduce their contracted allocation, only increase it. This is to protect the Account An adhoc carrier (one with no contracted allocation) can add their availability. Once the allocation is on a route it cannot be removed by the carrier. As the account administrator you can activate Dynamic carrier availability from the Carrier Vitals page Carrier availability Validation So once you have uploaded a carrier availability file, AMI will validate the contents and notify you of the result. The validation will include format and contents, providing information, where a failure occurs on what the failure is. Initial validation that must be passed to proceed; 1. Correct column headers Validation will fail if the headers are named differently to the template. Validation error message ' Column headers are not named correctly' 2. Correct order of the columns Validation will fail if the columns are not in the correct position. Validation error message ' Columns are not in the required positions' 3. Carrier ID Validation will pass if the carrier ID exists on the Account being uploaded to and will fail if the carrier does not exist in Account receiving upload. Validation error message for notification and storing ' Carrier ID must match the carrier's code in Carrier VITALS' Specific validation 1. Day Is required. Format correct spelling of a day of the week Example validation error message ' Tusday is not a valid day. Please use a valid day' 2. Country Is required. Format can be an ISO code.

Currency Live currency conversion to view all Carrier store carriers in your currency How do i add a currency to my Account? An account will be given a default currency based on their Account country This can be viewed or changed in the Account VITALS configuration How does currency affect an Account? Once a currency is set, all costs seen by the Account user in any of their associated applications will be shown in the Account set currency. Carrier rate cards will be imported in the same way but Event will check the carrier preferred currency in CONNECT for the conversion ROUTE will show rates from all your carriers in your currency preferrence reCONNECT will show the converted carrier invoice cost but also in the carrier currency for you to check How does it work in CONNECT? A carrier now has to confirm their preferred currency for invoicing. This means that they will see all costs in CONNECT in thier preferred currency. They will invoice you in their preferred currency. Currency activate Currency profile Currency activate 1/2 What will you see in reCONNECT for invoicing? The carrier will provide a pdf invoice in the currency they want to be paid in. We will show you the converted cost in your currency and we will also show you exactly what they were told to invoice, so you can match. When is the rate conversion fixed for an accepted route offer? The currency conversion rate is fixed once the carrier accepts the route offered. If the route is later uupublished and republished, the rate will again be set using the conversion rate for that day. Adding SPOT rates (non tariff) When a SPOT rate is added, outside of the standard rate card process, the cost manually added must be in the carriers currency. There is no currency conversion done on manually added spot rates. Example: Carrier A charges in GBP. Spot rate to be added as no rate card. Carrier A is contacted for a price to action the delivery Carrier A provides the price in their prefered currency that they charge in (EUR) The Spot cat is added as received from Carrier A. No conversion is made, the price The Event Team designed by humans : built with machines

Top of Page Which rate card do i use? Introduction How to build a rate card Rate card validation Self-serve rate card import Uploading rate cards for carriers you connect with To use a non parcel carrier, you will need to add a rate card A rate card simply shows where a carrier will deliver to and how much that delivery will cost... If you are using ROUTE in Event you will need to connect to carriers. To allocate routes to your connected carrier you need a rate card. Carriers in Event have a standard universal rate card or you can arrange and negotiate your own rates. Introduction This guide assumes you have created an account with a carrier, connected to them through Event and now need to upload your negotiated rate card so you can start allocating routes. Connect and allocate Decide on a carrier and create an account [contract] with the carrier (outside of Event) Connect to your chosen carrier through Event* Receive a 'carrier now connected' notification Create a rate card, upload. Start allocating routes to your carrier * A carrier will add themselves to EVENT through being invited. They only need to be invited once and in doing so will create access, login details and a 'connected' presence in the Event ecosystem overall for all current and future Accounts to connect to. You just need to upload a rate card.. Use the rate card template below and follow the instructions here to upload it. * There is not set requirement for naming a rate card upload file. We will add a date time stamp to make sure it is unique Which rate card do i use? Do not change the format of these rate cards! Download, change the date but not the headers or the tab names Which rate card do i use? The rate card templates are simply based on the a tariff in WEIGHT or PALLET based. Are you adding a groupage pallet tariff or one based on weight? hint: FTL is always added as weight. See the examples below to help you quickly create a rate card. If creating an FTL tariff, use the Template 1. This includes EXW. If creating an Groupage PALLET based tariff, use the Template 1 If creating an Groupage WEIGHT based tariff, use the Template 2 Standard plt / weight tariff click to download Template 1 FTL all postcode Rate card template PLT - Day / night / weekend / holiday 19-04-2023 - AP Hint: Any postcodes not used can be added as '0' rate to be used as adhoc This tariff includes where a carrier provides different costs based on the time of day or day of week It is only for the FTL sheet, not for Groupage Column J cannot be used if any of columns O-T are being used. Leave J as = blank Column U can be used with either column J or columns O-T. It can also be used on its own. The daytime setting can be configured in AccountVITALS / Setup Basics / Rate Card Bank holidays can be configured in AccountVITALS / Setup Basics / Holidays The headers for columns O-U will be used to show as the servie in Change Carrier Template 2 Groupage all UK postcode rate card template PLT. Upto 10 plts 12-02-2019 - AP Hint: Any postcodes not used can be added as '0' rate to be used as adhoc Template 3 Rate card template weight - Groupage 12-02-2019 - AP Hint: Its important to define if the Groupage tariff is per weight band or pallet. The excel spreed sheet tab defines this Template 4 Rate card template weight bands- Groupage 17-09-2021 - AP This function includes 2 new columns. 'PER' column and 'ROUNDING' column. PER = rate per kg. This can be 1 as std or 100kg ROUNDING = set to round by, e.g. 10 (to mearest 10) The PER calculation example is: 99-250kg line in tariff rate = 39.98 Set PER rate as 100kg Shipped 145kg Set rounding to 10kg (nearest 10kg) so 150kg calculated rate = 39.98 x 1.5 Template 4a Rate card template weight bands with minimum charge 14-09-2022 - AP Template 5 Template 5 Rate card template pallet per lifts - Groupage 17-09-2021 - AP This function is the standard Groupage rate card by pallet. The difference is a configuration to set between per plt or per lift. This Lift configuration will use the stackability from the Stop. If 7 plts and stackable, lifts = 3 lifts The default is per pallet. Groupage rate card by m3 Template 6 GRP rate card by m3 08-05-2021 - AP Hint: Any postcodes not used can be added as '0' rate to be used as adhoc Use column F & G for calculating Stop volume (10-15 m3 band = 4.50 x total m3) Use column H & I for calculating Stop volume as a fixed total cost (10-15 m3 band = 180.00 fixed rate) To set the calcuation at PLANNED or DESPATCHED status, use the configuration in Carrier VITALS To speed up creating multi equipment type FTL rate cards... Template 7 FTL x3 equipment types UK postcodes template 12-02-2019 - AP Template 8 FTL x2 equipment types UK postcodes template 12-02-2019 - AP Distance tariff by metric Template 9 Distance tariff from a source point 12-02-2019 - AP This distance tariff allows for a cost to be calculated from a source postcode and by a metric, i.e. per tonne Distance tariff from point A-B Template 10 Distance tariff from a source point 12-02-2019 - AP This distance tariff allows for a cost to be calculated based on the actual distance banding from any location to any location. It is not dependant on any metric, simply a cost per distance by an equipment type Day rate tariff A day rate tariff is a rate that a carrier charges for either a specific amount of time or a set distance. Using the day rate tariff in Event will impact the way in which a rate is calculated in ROUTE2. A user can select a Day Rate carrier, see the rate in Change Carrier. To create a connected Day of trips for a vehicle, the user cn drag a route onto the Day rate route line. The route will be updated with a Trip number automatically Template 11 Day rate tariff for distance or time 25-02-2021 - AP Max distance Max distance = the maximum distance this vehicle can travel in 1 day for the tariff. Either set to 99999 to activate TIME columns or add in the actual max distance. To use only mileage as a calculator, you need to set the time band as 00:00 - 23:59. This will ignore the time. To / From Band Time To / From Band Time =This time is used to determine the starting and ending time of this vehicle. To / From Band Time =This time is used to determine the starting and ending time of this vehicle. to use only the time band as a claculator, you need to set the max mileage as 99999 How does Day Rate tariff work in ROUTE2? Day Rates are basically FLEET routing. A Day Rate is all about getting as many trips per day from the vehicle for a set price. A Day Rate carrier will do as many routes in one day as possible. We call these connected routes 'Trips'. For example: Day Rate carrier vehicle 1, 1st route = Trip 1.1 Day Rate carrier vehicle 1, 2nd route = Trip 1.2 Day Rate carrier vehicle 1, 3rd route = Trip 1.3 Day Rate carrier vehicle 2, 1st route = Trip 2.1 Day Rate carrier vehicle 2, 2nd route = Trip 2.2 To create a Trip you must allocate the route to a carrier that has a Day Rate. To create a multi trip you can drag any Route onto the Trip. To change the Trip sequence you do this in Route Detail for the Trip. To change from a Day Rate carrier you Change Carrier. The cost for a Day Rate is based on the tariff. The tariff will be based on the total distance or total time. If distance, the logic is: The distance for a Trip, double it to create the return leg The distance is fixed for the tariff, so ROUTE2 will not let a user add a trip if the total distance for all trips is greater than the max mileage Example: Tariff = max 300 miles. Trip 1.1 = 100miles return, Trip 1.2 = 100 miles return, Trip 1.3 = 102 miles return, then Trip 1.3 cannot be added as 2 miles over agreement. The time tariff is calculated as the total time for the Trips plus waiting time. Time is a return time. In ROUTE2 we only show 1 way, you will need to double this if Day Rate carrier There is a 45 min waiting / loading / unloading time If time, the logic is: Create a FLEET carrier So you can recognise it in ROUTE2. Now create your rate card. Creating a FLEET route To create a FLEET Route you need to allocate to your Day Rate carrier. The Route will show the 'return trip' icon and a TRIP NUMBER Gant view You can also change view and look at the Gant view Create a FLEET carrier So you can recognise it in ROUTE2. Now create your rate card. 1/12 Parcel tariff by service Template 12 Parcel tariff by weight and service 11-10-2021 - AP Tariff for calculating parcel wieght and service through SLM rules Do I have to create a file per carrier? No. To make it easier you can add all carriers onto 1 file and import or create separately. Decision is yours... What if i want to use a carrier but i have no rate card? You do not need to add a rate card for a carrier to be able to use the carrier in Event. Using Event's 'Spot Rate' function lets you allocate to any carrier at any time How does Spot Rate work? show me How to build a rate card How to build a rate card Groupage, FTL, EXW carriers all need a rate card in Event... This guide will step through how to build a rate card Vitals For a carrier to be available in Event, they must have a rate for the destination. The rate can be 0.00. Use the template provided below. Rate card type A rate card is added based on being a weight based rate card or PLT based. If you are adding a Groupage tariff for weight use the weight card, it PLT use the PLT card. For FTL it is always imported as weight. Upload to Event When complete please e-mail currently to: antony.pratt@3t-europe.com Email header: Rate Card Upload. Environment: QA, LIVE Carrier name Vitals For a carrier to be available in Event, they must have a rate for the destination. The rate can be 0.00. Use the template provided below. 1/19 Rate card validation Rate Card Validation So once you have uploaded a rate card, AMI will validate the contents and notify you of the result. The validation will include format and contents, providing information, where a failure occurs on what the failure is. Initial validation that must be passed to proceed; 1. Correct column headers Validation will fail if the headers are named differently to the template. Validation error message ' Column headers are not named correctly' 2. Correct order of the columns Validation will fail if the columns are not in the correct position. Validation error message ' Columns are not in the required positions' 3. Carrier ID Validation will pass if the carrier ID exists on the Account being uploaded to and will fail if the carrier does not exist in Account receiving upload. Validation error message for notification and storing ' Carrier ID must match the carrier's code in Carrier VITALS' Specific validation 1. Origin country Is required. Format is ISO code. Validation error message ' Add a valid ISO 2 digit country code, i.e. US, GB ' 2. Origin code Is required. Format can be numbers or letters. CV, 01, 850. Validation error message 'Valid post or area code required in the format of at least the 1st 2 digits of the code, i.e. CV, 11, 98' 3. Destination country Is required. Format ISO code. Validation error message ' Add a valid ISO 2 digit country code, i.e. US, GB ' 4. Destination code Is required. Format c an be numbers or letters . CV 22 6HL , CV 22, CV , 01, 01000, 10000.

Can be format 1.000000001 if Groupage. Validation error message 'Must add a number in the format 2.000000001 ' Example: for FTL this would be 99999 7. Stop rate Is required if Delivery type = FTL. Format must be 0.00. Validation error message ''Rate must be included for FTL and cannot be left empty. It can be 0.00' 8. Equipment Is required. Validate the equipment type against the Account Equipment database and if a match can be found allow, if no match fail validation. Validation error message '[failed equipment name] is not a valid equipment type for this Account. Please use a valid type or update your equipment' 9. SLM rule Not required. Default is blank. This is a specialist rule for RULE ASSIST only. Max characters = 10 Validation error message where not matching rule is found in SLM 'No matching rule found in Route Assist rules' To use this rule, ROUTE ASSIST rules for the carrier must match those in the rate card. To use this function, add the SLM rules to the ROUTE ASSIST column called 'Groupage type' *this rule will lookup ROUTE ASSIST rule, take the associated Groupage Type and when looking up the rate card, will look to match a SLM rule to the Groupage type added. 10. Mode Is required. Must be LAND, AIR or SEA. AMI will default to LAND if not added. If added but not one of the 3... Validation error message 'Mode must equal LAND, SEA or AIR in this format ' 11. Service Is required. Default is Economy. AMI will default to Economy if not added. If added but not Economy, check for match in Account's Service and update. No validation message. 12.

Re-route if possible Pallet dims - update with changed DIMS - recalculate load fill and attempt replan ACCEPTED Status During the update of orderline process in Event CONNECT, sometimes this update results in the complete removal of the Stop or the Route. (the above publish status) The removal of the Stop can result in a cancellation charge from the carrier. The removal of the route can result in a cancellation charge from the carrier. The carrier will want to be able to add a cost for the cancellation. If there is no Stop or Route the carrier cannot charge and the log for this cost cannot be kept accurate. We leave a 'GHOST' image of the Route / Stop behind and remove the actual order for reporcessing. So the carrier will still have the route or Stop visible to add a cost adjustment. Thr actual order can be removed and updated as required and replanned. Planned date - remove orderline(s) affected and replan these though AMI. UnPublish to ACTIVE, remove orderline(s) from existing route(s) and replan orderline(s) in new route(s) using AMI and recost the existing route Planned date - unpublish route / Stop affected.

Estimated pallets Qty - update with new Estimated pallets. Leave in ACCEPTED Estimated product Qty - update with new Estimated pallets. Leave in ACCEPTED Pallet dims - update with changed DIMS - Leave in ACCEPTED The functionality for this is configurable and can be found in the reCONNECT product configuration. The configuration allows, by carrier to set the hrs before collection that is considered a chargeable cancellation: A number of hrs before the colection date and time of the Route. If it is within this period then create the canx 'Ghost' iem so the carrier can be paid for it. If it is outside of this period then just remove the Route / Stop. A carrier can be excluded from this process, so not all carrier son an Account have to be included.
