0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the In transit
report detail message (ITRRPT) 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 specifying to a delivery party, the details of goods
within grouped consignments despatched by the delivering party.
This message is used in a multi-step transportation process
involving only consignors, grouping centres and consignees.
A grouping centre (consolidation point) is a logistic point
where goods are moved from one means of transport to another,
to optimize transport cost. This message is not to be used to
identify additional services related to the despatched goods
(warehousing, packaging, etc.) which may provided by the third
party at the same location along with the Grouping service.
1.2 Field of Application
The In transit report detail 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
An In Transit Report Detail message always relates to one or
many Despatch Advice messages sent to the parties concerned.
This message refers to the goods identified in the referenced
Despatch Advice messages
When the recipient of the message is a grouping centre the
message allows the grouping centre to consolidate consignments
received from one or more original consignors or other grouping
centres and despatch them to another grouping centre or to the
consignee.
When the recipient of the message is the consignee, it allows
the consignee to match this message with the corresponding
Despatch Advice messages already received from the
consignor(s). In case of differences, the message allows the
consignee to identify variances caused by a split consignment
or by missing goods.
The Cargo/goods handling and movement message (HANMOV) has been
designed to identify additional handling services related to
the despatched goods, such as storage or (re-)packaging.
An ITRRPT message specifies the details of despatched goods
(possibly re-grouped), corresponding to one or more original
despatch advices; the references to the consignment(s) by which
they transported can be included (the seller's and buyer's
perspective). The message does not necessarily provide full
consignment details as required for transport purposes ( the
carrier's perspective).
The message refers to goods despatched on a single unit of
transport (e.g. a single truck, a single railway wagon etc.).
The sender of the message may be:
. The consignor; in this case the message may refer to several
buyers and consignees, but to only one seller.
. A grouping centre; in this case the message may refer to
several buyers, consignors, consignees and sellers.
The recipient of the message may be:
. A grouping centre; in this case the message may refer to
several sellers, consignors, consignees and buyers.
. The consignee; in this case the message may refer to several
sellers, but only one buyer and one consignee.
The following diagram illustrates the information flows.

ITRRPT message match the corresponding DESADV directly sent to
the consignee.

4. MESSAGE DEFINITION
4.1 Data Segment Clarification
This section should be read in conjunction with the Segment
Table which indicate 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
'yymmdd'/'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.
Care must be taken to avoid the conflicting use of qualifiers.
Free text information within the message should be avoided as
this inhibits automatic processing.
