Introduction

The order request is send from a Buyer to a Seller. The receipt of the order request by the Seller is acknowledged with an Acknowledgement or Negative-Acknowledgement message.

Process

Choreography

OrdReq_choreography.jpg

The order request is submitted by the Buyer to Onetrail TPN™. Onetrail TPN™ confirms the technical receipt of the order request, process the order request and submit it to the Seller. Once the Seller has confirmed the technical receipt of the order request, Onetrail TPN™ will generate an Acknowledgment and submit this to the Buyer.

In case Onetrail TPN™ does not confirm the technical receipt of the order request, the Buyer needs to take care of resubmitting the order request. In case the Seller refuses the order request, Onetrail TPN™ will generate a Non-Acknowledgment and submit this to the Buyer. The Buyer needs to take care of the proper actions and create a new or modified order request. This can differ per Seller, because some Sellers cannot accept the same purchase order number more than once, in that case a new purchase order needs to be created by the Buyer.

Process management

Once the order request is technically accepted by Onetrail TPN™, a time-alert is started with the process monitor. Once the order is technically confirmed (can be either "accept"/"reject") by the Seller, the time-alert is removed from the process monitor. If the time-alert is not removed within the specified time frame, the process monitor will generate an exception and the Onetrail TPN™ support department will take appropriate actions.

  1. Drop Shipment Order (direct delivery)
