INTRODUCTION This specification provides the definition of the Delivery just in time message (DELJIT) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport. 1. SCOPE 1.1 Functional definition A message provides the ability for a customer to convey precise delivery sequence and Just In Time schedule requirements to a supplier, and is intended to supplement the Delivery Schedule Message (DELFOR). 1.2 Field of application The Delivery just in time message may be used for both national and international applications. It is based on universal practice related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not dependent on the type of business or industry. 1.3 Principles The use of this message will facilitate the practice of Just In Time (JIT) delivery by providing the customer with a mechanism to issue precise shipping schedule requirements in terms of a 24 hour clock and on a more frequent basis than with the instance of a delivery schedule message, e.g. daily shipping schedules versus weekly planning schedules. 2. REFERENCES See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.3 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 1. 3. TERMS AND DEFINITIONS 3.1 Standard terms and definitions See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.3 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 2. 4. MESSAGE DEFINITION 4.1 Segment clarification This section should be read in conjunction with the segment table which indicates mandatory, conditional and repeating requirements. The following guidelines and principles apply to the whole message and are intended to facilitate the understanding and implementation of the message: All specified dates/times should be in the format 'ccyymmdd'/'hhmm' unless all parties involved in the transaction agree that there is a functional requirement for an alternative format. Periods should be specified as whole numbers representing the required period as indicated in the format qualifier (weeks, months, etc.) Where a choice of code or text is given only the code element should be used wherever possible. Conditional data that is not required in the message should not be included. Care must be taken that the segment qualifier in dependent segments do not conflict with the segment qualifier of the trigger segment of a group. Free text information within the message should be avoided as this inhibits automatic processing. 4.1.1 Header section Information to be provided in the Header section: 00010 UNH, Message header A service segment starting and uniquely identifying a message. The message type code for the Delivery just in time message is DELJIT. Note: Delivery just in time messages conforming to this document must contain the following data in segment UNH, composite S009: Data element 0065 DELJIT 0052 D 0054 21A 0051 UN 00020 BGM, Beginning of message A segment for unique identification of the document name and its number. 00030 DTM, Date/time/period A segment specifying the date and, when relevant, the time/period for delivery of that sequence, relating to the whole message. The DTM segment must be specified at least once to identify the Delivery Just In Time document date. The date/time/period segment within other Segment group should be used whenever the date/time/period requires to be logically related to another specified data item. 00040 FTX, Free text Segment giving additional information relevant to the entire message. 00050 Segment group 1: RFF-DTM A group of segments giving references only relevant to the specified party rather than the whole message, e.g. contract number. 00060 RFF, Reference A segment for referencing documents to the whole message, e.g. contract, import/export license. 00070 DTM, Date/time/period date/time/period as applied the referred document. 00080 Segment group 2: NAD-LOC-FTX-SG3-SG4 A group of segments identifying names and addresses and their functions relevant for the whole Delivery Just In Time Message. 00090 NAD, Name and address A segment for identifying names and addresses and their functions relevant for the whole Delivery Just In Time Message. Identification of the seller and buyer parties is recommended for the Delivery Just In Time. They are to be given in the NAD segment. It is recommended that where possible only the coded form of the party ID should be specified. e.g. The Buyer and Seller are known to each other, thus only the coded ID is required, but the Consignee or Delivery address may vary and would have to be clearly specified, preferably in structured format. 00100 LOC, Place/location identification A segment indicating more details regarding specific place/locations related to the party specified in the NAD segment, e.g. internal site/building number. 00110 FTX, Free text A segment with free text in coded or clear form, to give further clarification, when required, about the party. In computer to computer exchanges such text will normally require the receiver to process this segment manually. 00120 Segment group 3: RFF-DTM A group of segments giving references only relevant to the specified party rather than the whole JIT delivery instruction. 00130 RFF, Reference A segment identifying the reference by its number and where appropriate a line number within a document. 00140 DTM, Date/time/period Date/time/period of the reference. 00150 Segment group 4: CTA-COM A group of segments to identify person, function, department and appropriate numbers to whom communication should be directed. 00160 CTA, Contact information A segment to identify person, function, department to whom communication should be directed. 00170 COM, Communication contact Identify communication types and numbers for person, function, department identified in CTA. 4.1.2 Detail section Information to be provided in the Detail section: 00180 Segment group 5: SEQ-DTM-GIR-LOC-SG6-SG7-SG9 A group of segments providing details related to the delivery sequence.
