025479: Windsor Framework Changes - Intersoft

1.   Overview

KCSL have updated the Intelligent Shipper integration to include changes for the Windsor Framework, as outlined in https://integrations.intersoft.co.uk/windsor-framework-faqs.


2.   Configuration

An updated application and changelog will be provided with this functionality.

A new courier config option 'Business Transaction Type' has been added to the Intelligent Shipper courier in [ System Data | Couriers ], and existing options must follow the rules outlined below. These options can be found by right-clicking and selecting 'Configure...' on an Intelligent Shipper courier. 

With these changes, it is necessary to have different couriers setup for B2B and B2C orders.

B2B Courier Options
  1. Business Transaction Type - set to B2B.
  2. Preregistration Number - set to your (the shipper's/sender's) UKIMS number.
  3. Preregistration Type - set to UKIMS.
A Destination EORI number must also be provided. This can be setup against the customer in [ Customer | Detail | Financial | EORI Number ].

B2C Courier Options

  1. Business Transaction Type - leave this blank.
  2. Preregistration Number - not required.
  3. Preregistration Type - not required.

3.   Usage

After applying the above Configuration, typical steps for usage have not changed except for selecting a B2B or B2C courier:

  1.  Process orders as usual, assigning to either B2B or B2C Intelligent Shipper courier as required.
  2.  Upon assigning to courier, the relevant UKIMS information will be sent to Intelligent Shipper alongside the usual request data.
