  • Raising a Shipment Event with an Agent

    Hello all,

    I'm wondering if there's any way to raise a Shipment Event (say, Estimated Departure [EST_DEPARTURE Event Group]) with an Agent. From what I've seen, each Shipment Event is processed like a Transmission / Transaction from OTM to itself using a CLOB with the <ShipmentStatus> XML element, so there's no way to do this through a Direct SQL Update. And, to be specific, i mean events with statuses, not the Agent Events you can raise with the RAISE EVENT and RAISE INTERNAL EVENT Agent Actions.

    As a related question, for any of you with experience using / playing with the Shipment Event Tracker agent and agent events, is there a way to have it recognize Event Groups marked solely for internal use, i.e. SELL SIDE TENDERED? Basically, I'm trying to get the agent to fire when i tender the shipment rather than having to enter an event.

    I'll be glad to elaborate if I'm not clear.

    Thanks!

    The only way I have found to raise an event in OTM is manual event entry or XML persist ShipmentStatus.xml

      Hi sblackman1
      a way to do it, not simple, but using agent is:

      1. Modeling a XSL in order to filter a standard output XML PLANNED SHIPMENT interface in a SHIPMENT STATUS transmission corresponding to the Event that you want to simulate. To have an XML file where working on you could export a shipment with some events and isolate SHIPMENT STATUS zone

      2. Create an external system linked to your otm servlet for xml import, using XSL as transformation

      3. In a agent (based on Shipment..) call action send transmission , using external system of point 2. Then OTM receive in Input a Transmission similar to event manually insert, you have only to manage where to retreive (in xsl transformation) event date.

        Hi Stefano,

        Great workaround. Could you throw some more light into configuring this workaround & any caveats around using this approach. My requirement is to log a Shipment Dispatch (CP) event which will be set by an Agent.

        Appreciate early response.
