0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the International
transport freight costs and other charges message (IFTFCC) 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 freight, handling and transport costs and
other related charges between transport service providers and
their customers.
1.2 Field of Application
The International transport freight costs and other charges
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 message will enable the parties involved in transport
operations to indicate the various charges and costs. The
structure of this information will enable parties to relate the
charges and freight costs information received to the original
instruction given by other transport messages (e.g. IFTMCS) to
allow a one-by-one verification of the statement of charges.
- The message is based on the applicable version of the UN/ECE
Recommendation No. 23: Freight Cost Code - FCC, Harmonization
of the description of freight costs and other charges.
- Freight costs and or other charges may be related to: a
single consignment, a number of consignments and or a number of
equipment (periodical or consolidated charging), goods items
and or a voyage conveyance flight of a means of transport.
- Negative totals can be specified when credit notes and
refunds form part of the charge handling.
- Four main segment groups on message level follow after the
PAT segment group, respectively:
1) TDT segment group (segment group 17): transport details
2) GID segment group (segment group 19): goods item details
3) EQD segment group (segment group 24): equipment details
4) CNI segment group (segment group 28): consignment details
Each segment group may specify details to which the given
charges relate.
- Full details for a charge are specified in the TCC segment
group on message top level. Single TCC segments occur on the
lower levels of the message. These single TCC segments can be
used, wherever appropriate, as pointers to full charge details
which are given in the TCC segment group on message top level.
When the TCC segment is used as a pointer then only the data
element 'Freight and charges item number' (in composite C200)
is to be used.
- The annex includes a number of stylized examples, showing the
basic outlines of how the message can be applied.
- A consignment may contain several goods items.
- Goods items may or may not be containerized.
- A goods item may be transported in one or more containers,
and a single container may contain one or more goods items.
- Pre-carriage (advanced haulage) and or on-carriage
(destination haulage) of goods items or equipment within one
booking or instruction may take place in different steps, when
each step is specified with its own transport details group.
- Equipment may have other types of equipment attached to it.
A number of generic transport terms are used in this
specification, to be described as:
* Mode of transport: the method of transport used for the
conveyance of goods or persons.
* Means of transport: the vehicle used for the transport of
goods or persons.
* Type of means of transport: the type of vehicle used in the
transport process.
* Equipment: material resources necessary to facilitate the
transport and handling of cargo. Transport equipment does under
the given circumstances not have the ability to move by its own
propulsion.
* Type of equipment: the type of equipment used.
