Component documentationLoad Data Capture (LDC)

 

Once a purchased load arrives, certain attributes of the load must be captured. These attributes are used to determine whether a load conforms to the quality, optionality, and tolerance requirements of the contract in a planned business scenario, and to select an appropriate contract to fulfill or generate a spot contract in unplanned scenarios.

Integration

  • Load Data Capture is integrated with the Orchestration Framework to trigger a call to a stack of functions. For more information, see the component documentation for Load Data Capture.

  • Load Data Capture is integrated with the SAP application document. The application document is used to link a load quantity (captured during LDC) to a pricing contract during the application process. For more information, see the documentation for Load Data Capture: Integration with Application Document.

  • Load Data Capture is integrated with the nomination,, the scheduling and communication document used in the Trader's and Scheduler's Workbench (TSW). A load can be captured using the nomination as the reference document. For more information, see the documentation for Load Data Capture: Integration with Nomination and TSW.

Features

  • Captures quality characteristics data for the load

  • Stores multiple weights and grades characteristics for use in downstream documents such as the settlement and application documents

  • Utilizes load information from external sources

  • Uniquely identifies each specific load event in the system

  • Captures customer-specific details for the load through the use of an Add-On Tabs Framework

  • Ensures that all subsequently generated system documents will reference the load
