TransDocs Integration Setup

 

MoversSuite integrates with TransDocs allowing files to transfer through UniGroup queues into and out of the MoversSuite application.  

 

MoversSuite orders must have the following attributes to enable upload and download capabilities for TransDocs files:

    Orders must be registered with UniGroup and booked in MoversSuite

    Orders must be “Van Line” authority as set through the Authority field in Move Information and Order Information (Revenue Entry)

    Document files are in Tagged Image File Format (TIF or TIFF), e.g. “sample.tif”, or Portable Document Format (PDF), e.g. “sample.pdf”.  Only TIF or TIFF files will download into MoversSuite

    Document Type must match to an External Code support by TransDocs

    For automatic uploads to occur: Document Type must match the Shipment Type of the order as defined within  Document Type (Auto-Upload) Setup  and set for the order within the Shipment Type field in Move Information and Order Information (Revenue Entry)

 

The following table describes the setup needed to enable TransDocs integration.

 

Note

UniGroup TransDocs is an optional, add-on module that purchased in addition to existing MoversSuite licensing.

 

 

Setup Area

Description

Document Type Setup

Document Type records for the UniGroup interface (see XML Interface Setup) must be defined with an External Code supported by UniGroup and mapped accordingly.

The application references the Document Type when uploading and downloading documents automatically.  Additionally, users will reference this Document Type field through the following:

Attach File

Document Management Viewer

Properties

Re-Processing Document

Third Party Application Error Management

 

Suggestion: See the note for the Description setting within Document Type Setup regarding useful naming conventions.

 

For automatic uploading of documents to be in effect, the Auto Upload Shipment Type must match the Shipment Type set for the order in Move Information.  See Document Type (Auto-Upload) Setup for more information.

 

XML System Setup

Use this setup to define the system options for the TransDoc processes under the UniGroup Queues system.
