NOTE: Most of the presets for UniGroup International in the following sections are automatically added to your system through the upgrade process. Additional insert scripts are also available to those of you processing UniGroup orders through the International Orders module prior to the implementation of the UniGroup International functionality. These scripts allow you to load in the latest supported codes.

Auto Class Setup

NOT IN USE FOR UNIGROUP INTERNATIONAL: Reference only

Define Auto Class Setup records for the UniGroup International interface for the following codes to support UniGroup International processes.

Each make must link to UniGroup International with appropriate External Code. In the example below (Figure 16), the External Code of Cadillac is the supported UniGroup code, which also links to the like-named Auto Make record in MoversSuite.

Carrier and Consolidator Setup

NOT IN USE FOR UNIGROUP INTERNATIONAL: Reference only

EWS Group provides a script to insert all carrier and consolidators supported by UniGroup International. External codes are assigned automatically to the UniGroup International interface in the format of a two-character type code followed by a three-character port code, such as AC001 for American Airlines, where AC is the type for air carrier and the 001 is the UniGroup identifier for the company. If you have pre-existing records within either setup, then EWS Group recommends reviewing your entries before running the script.

Verify and manage records through Carrier Setup (International Orders) and Consolidator Setup.

The script is titled InternationalAirOceanCarriersConsolidators.sql and is available through the upgrade process.

Linehaul Carrier

NOT IN USE FOR UNIGROUP INTERNATIONAL: Reference only

Verify Lift Van Status Setup records for the UniGroup International interface to support UniGroup International processes.

EWS Group provides a script to populate this setup with the carriers support by the UniGroup International system.

Note Type Setup

NOT IN USE FOR UNIGROUP INTERNATIONAL: Reference only

Verify that UniGroup Note Codes supported are defined correctly.

Port Setup

NOT IN USE FOR UNIGROUP INTERNATIONAL: Reference only

Verify that all supported ports are established on your system. UniGroup International utilizes three-character airline industry codes for all airports. For seaports, the five-character UNLOC code is supported. UNLOC codes include a two-character country code followed by a three-character port code, such as USLAX for the Los Angeles seaport.

EWS Group provides a script titled Post-UniGroupInternationalPorts.sql that is available through the upgrade process that inserts all UniGroup International supported codes with appropriate Port Code and External Codes within Port Setup into your system.  If the script encounters an existing port code for the correct type, either Air or Sea, then a new port code record is not imported. If you have existing Port Code records, then EWS Group recommends that you review your entries (you can compare them to what displays in the script) to verify pre-existing data before running the script.

These codes are needed for quotes and revenue associated to the international order.

In the following examples, the BOOKING COMMISSION record links to Service Code of 005, which is the anticipated code for the booking commission, through the Item Code.

Figure 18: XML Item Code Setup

The corresponding Item Code Setup record references Service Code 005, which is established within the Service Code (Accounting) Setup.
