0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the International
multimodal status report message (IFTSTA) to be used in
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners
involved in administration, commerce and transport.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Functional Definition
A message to report the transport status and/or a change in the
transport status (i.e. event) between agreed parties.
1.2 Field of Application
This message type may be applied for both national and
international trade. It is based on universal practice and is
not dependent on the type of business or industry.
1.3 Principles
This message allows for the exchange of information regarding
the status of the physical movement of consignments, goods or
equipment at any point (in time or place) within the full
transport chain.
A status message may be sent:
- as the result of request/s for consignment/s or equipment
status/es
- on a scheduled basis at predetermined times
- on the occurrence of a selected event/s
- on the occurrence of an exceptional event as agreed by the
partners involved.
This message can relate to a status (or statuses) that has or
have been reached in a transport chain.
Data requirements for tracking equipment where equipment is not
associated with a consignment (such as repair container) are
NOT addressed in this message.
