DI Plan & Go - Importformat

Genereral notes about the format

Encoding: The CSV-file is assumed to be encoded as ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8
Columns
- The order of the columns is not important.
- The header-line (with the column names) is essential. Each column MUST have our documented names (i.e. ORDER_ID or PRODUCT).
- We now give an error if there are any unknown column names in the file. The file should therefore not have any other column names than those documented here.
Field separator is semi colon (;), comma or tab.
The columns can be quoted, if so, use ("").

Quoted fields is optional (semi-colon example)

PRODUCT;CUSTOMER_NAME;ADDRESS;ZIP;CITY
Roser;Ola Normann;Storgata 13B;1234;OSLO
-or-
"Roser";"Ola Normann";"Storgata 13B";"1234";"OSLO"

Format for delivery-file

Then uploading the file, choose the customer system all deliveries are for.

Import will fail if there are ANY OTHER COLUMNS than these.

Name	Standard (if empty)	Description	Max length	Type	Example
ORDER_ID		External order ID Typically identifies each customer for this distribution.	40	String	A345
ORDER_LINE_ID		External order line ID Typically identifies each package for this distribution. If given, it must be unique.	40	String	891837
PICKUP	N	Order-lines are normally deliveries, but indicate here if an order-line is a pickup. Driver can then see different action-buttons.	1	String (Y/N)	Y
TIMEWINDOW_START	Start time of route	Criteria for when the customer can receive the package (start time)		String/text "HH:MM" or "HHMM"	17:00 -or- 1700
TIMEWINDOW_STOP	End time of route	Criteria for when the customer can receive the package (end time)		String/text "HH:MM" or "HHMM"	19:00 -or- 1900

Each non-blank value must be unique (within the file). -or- NEW Just ensure that PARTS of the numbers matches the barcode (used for scanning standard parcels). Use "?" as a wildcard (can be any single character). When containing wildcards you may of course have multiple rows with same PARCEL_NUMBER.	40	String	`12345ABC900987654321` -or- `???????????987654???`
CUSTOMER_TYPE	P	Indicate customer type: (P)rivate, (B)usiness, (R)etailer or (D)rop. Note: Some XLS-reports will not output sensitive information (name, address) for the default type (P).	1	String/text	B
CUSTOMER_NAME		Customer name	100	String/text	Ola Hansen
CUSTOMER_CO		Optional Care Of (if the carrier should look for other names when delivering)	50	String/text	Fam. Olsen
CUSTOMER_DIRECTIVE		Notes about how the delivery should take place. Can be a note from the customer about where to deliver the package or what to do if they are not home. To preserv linebreaks, use "\n" so the driver sees the message the same way it was written. Sanitize Remember to sanitize the data. Would be wise to use quotes and to replace double-quotes in the comment with single-quote. Example: This unquoted with problem-characters (;) is INVALID: `User's; "comment"` By adding quotes and replace double with single it's VALID: `"User's; 'comment'"` Note: For this field to be helpful, the drivers must understand the customer's language.	2000	String/text	"Hvis ikke vi er hjemme, så ring på hos <nabo-navn> på samme adresse, og hun vil slippe dere inn. \nSett kassen i boden i 4.etg. Takk."

LONGITUDE		Optional - if you want to use your own coordinates, else we will perform geocoding.		Double	10.743319 -or- 10,743319
ROUTE_NAME		Optional - If you want full control of how the routes are made, you can skip the optimization and use your own routes. You can still optimize the order within the routes afterwards. Manual or Automatic If this column it not used the customers will automatically re-user the last used route for this address. NOTE: The planner will always get the option between creating these routes or to ignore them and start a fresh optimisation. (and can also easy start over with the imported customer-data).

WEIGHT		Weight of the package (gram).		Integer	250
HEIGHT		NOT IMPLEMENTED Volume. Height/width/depth. All dimensions must be given to use (cm).		Integer	30
