1 General information of the actual message and the scope of its

application

1.1 Usage of the message and its restrictions on use

This document contains message implementation guidelines of a subset of UN/EDIFACT

(United Nations Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce and Transport)

IFTMIN (Instruction message) based on the directory D.14A. The message is used to send

waybill information from a consignor to a carrier company and from the carrier company

to the consignee.

The message defined in this document is meant only for exchanging waybill information. If

there is a need to cancel some information of the waybill message sent earlier or replace

with an entirely new message, it has to be done so that the cancellation message

document is sent first and after that the replacing waybill information. There has to be an

agreement between the business partners about the electronic waybill cancellation

procedure before it can be realized.

There are certain data elements in this message document that can be found on both

header and row levels. If the data item is defined on the header level it affects the whole

message document. However if the same data item is also defined on a row level it will

overrule in that row the definition given on the header level.

This document has been made by Bestfact in the subproject “Simplifying Standard

Message Exchange” for increasing the usage of electronic procedures in logistics. The

subproject began on the 1st of December 2014 and ended on the 30th of June 2015. This

document was created by the Finnish Information Society Development Centre (TIEKE).

The purpose of this document is to increase the willingness of the companies to take

electronic data interchange into use, to accelerate information system development

processes and to decrease costs of information system integration by creating a common

international recommendation for exchanging waybill information. The aim of this

document is also to decrease the needs of companies to create their own specifications

that are not compatible with the universal message standards. Another aim is to speed up

adoption of new ways to exchange information between companies and also to insure

and improve competitiveness of the companies.

This document is meant to be a guide in the negotiations between business partners that

want to start using electronic data interchange between each other. The document can

also be used in the development work of existing information systems. This document is

created for the use and the needs of managers who have negotiations with their business

partners and information technology specialists developing the data systems and

electronic data exchange of the company.

5.3 Message Structure – Diagram

In this chapter the structure of the waybill message according to the UN/EDIFACT IFTMIN

directory D.14A is indicated. Only the segments introduced in this message

implementation guideline are presented.









6 Definition of the message The element and segment lists used as the basis for these message implementation

guidelines are defined in UN/EDIFACT directory D.14A. In this section each used segment is

presented as it is described in the UN/EDIFACT IFTMIN D.14A message. The segments are

presented in the order they are defined in the UN/EDIFACT IFTMIN message definition. The

occurrence of the segment groups are presented in the message definition.

The instructions after the element name include a specification of the obligatoriness of the

element, and the type and the length of the element in according to the UN/EDIFACT

directory 14A. The recommendations for the use of the element for each mode of

transport can be found in the four right most columns of the table using the following

notation:

M Mandatory information

O Optional information

C Conditional (usage dependent on the usage of another element)

X Not in use

This notation is used to clarify the usage of the elements.

The type and the length of the elements are defined as follows:

types:

- a = characters

- n = numbers

- an = characters and/or numbers

length:

- N = standard length

- ..N = varying length, maximum length N

examples:

- a3 = three characters

- an..15 = maximum 15 characters or numbers

Negative numbers are expressed with a minus sign (-) in front of the number. Use of the

plus sign (+) is not required. The decimal separator and plus or minus signs are not included

in the length of the element. If there is an element in a segment the values of which are

codes the codes are according to the code list of the UN/EDIFACT directory D.14A or

UN/ECE.

The international UNTDED directory gives guidelines for the usage of decimals as follows:

Weight 3 decimals

Cubic 4 decimals

Unit price 4 decimals

Other prices 3 decimals

Exchange rate 6 decimals

Percentage 4 decimals

Tax value 4 decimals

Other amounts 3 decimals





These are guidelines that can be disregarded if needed. However, it is recommended that

the receiver of a message can handle element values with the above mentioned

decimals into their system. The decimals that are unnecessary or meaningless for the

processing of the information should be left out. It is recommended that the decimal

separator (a point or a comma) would be defined in the service segment UNA that is the

first segment in an interchange batch.

The instructions in the message definition are meant for guiding the usage of segments

and elements.





6.1 Message Header (UNH)

Segment: UNH Message Header Position: 0010

Group:

Level: 0

Usage: Mandatory

Max Use: 1

Purpose: A service segment starting and uniquely identifying a message. The

message type code for the Instruction message is IFTMIN.

Note: Instruction messages conforming to this document must contain

the following data in segment UNH, composite S009:

Data element 0065 IFTMIN

0052 D

0054 14A

0051 UN

Notes: The segment states the unique message identifier (element 0062)

that can be e.g. a running number. This identifier can be used later

on for to track down the actual message. The values of the

elements of the composite data element S009 tell to the receiver of

the message that the message and its structures are according to

UN/EDIFACT IFTMIN message and the directory used is D.14A. The

constant used in the element 0057 tells that the message sent or

received is according to these message implementation guidelines

made in the Bestfact project “Simplifying Standard Message

Exchange”. This information is recommended to be used.

Examples: UNH+125637+IFTMIN:D:14A:UN++++FI0097:1:1:ZTI'

A message with an identifier 125637 is an IFTMIN message

according to the UN/EDIFACT directory D.14A compliant. The

message follows recommendations of the message

implementation guidelines FI0097 version 1, release 1 released by

TIEKE Finnish Information Society Development Centre.

6.2 Waybill Identification Information (BGM)

Segment: BGM Beginning of Message

Position: 0020

Group:

Level: 0

Usage: Mandatory

Max Use: 1

Purpose: A segment to indicate the beginning of a message and to transmit

identifying number and type of the message.

Notes: The segment states that this is a waybill message that contains the

waybill information. The element C002/1001 indicated the type of

the waybill used as the basis for the waybill message. The segment

also tells the identifier for the waybill in the element C106/1004. It is

recommended that the identifier used for waybill message would

be the same as the waybill number on the paper document if it is

used.

The parties have to agree when and how the codes for the

element 1225 should be used: 1 (Cancellation), 4 (Change), 5

(Replace). “Change” is meant for situations where one part of the

original message is substituted and by “replace” we mean that the

new message replaces the old one entirely. If the message is

meant for cancellation in which case the element 1225 has the

value 1, only the number of the waybill message to be cancelled

should be given. However, the parties should agree upon the time

frame in which the change or cancellation message can be sent.

If an acknowledgement is required to be sent after receiving the

waybill message the element 4343 should have the value ”AB”.

Remarks: There could be national recommendations of the form and the

length of waybill number. Ask for the form of the waybill number

from the authority dividing waybill numbers in the country.

Examples: BGM+700+123456789012+9+AB'

An original waybill the identifier of which is 123456789012. Message

acknowledgement is requested to inform the sender of the waybill

that the carrier has received the waybill message.

characters long elements C059/3042 also expressing of long

addresses such as Asian addresses is possible. Extra information

relating to the address such as a building, a door or a room can

also be given in these elements.

Remarks: Each message should contain at least three NAD segments

indicating the originator of the waybill message in other words the

consignor, the carrier and the consignee.

In different countries and business branches there could be

recommendations to use certain kind of the party identifiers.

dangerous goods, it has to be done by using this FTX segment

because the segment group of 34 (Dangerous Goods) contain no

PAC segment. Whenever the package information is given in the

FTX segment, the elements 4451 should have the value PKG and in

the first repetition of the element C108/4440 the packaging level

should be stated by using the UN/EDIFACT code list 7075

“Packaging level code”. The packaging type should be given in

the second repetition of the element C108/4440 by using the codes

of the UN/ECE/CEFACT Trade Facilitation Recommendation No.21

“Coded Representations Of Package Type Names Used In

International Trade”. The package material and type should be

stated in the third repetition of the element C108/4440. Expression

of the package information is optional in all modes of

transportation except the package layer code that has always to

be given. In maritime transportation also other package layers

should be stated.

If the element 4451 has the value BLU the European Waste Code

(EWC) is given in the first repetition of the elements C108/4440.

8.3 Appendix 3: Service segments UNA, UNB and UNZ

UNA, Service String advice

Usage: Definition of the separators used in the interchange. Compliance optional.

Notes: If this segment is used, it has to be directly before the UNB segment in the

beginning of the interchange batch.

If there is a mark in the data that is used as a separator in the interchange

batch the mark is released from its role of a separator by putting the question

mark in from of the mark. For instance the queue of marks “John’s” should be

the queue “John?’s” in the interchange batch. If the question mark is not used

the apostrophe is in the meaning of the separator and it would cause an error.

Example: UNA:+,? ‘

In the interchange batch colon (:) separates data elements of a composite

data element in the segment from each other. Separate data elements or

composite data elements are separated by plus sign (+). The desimal

separator is comma (,) and an apostrophe (‘) ends the segment. The release

indicator is a question mark (?).
