Schenker Netherlands - Ordering

Introduction

The eSchenker ordering integration supports services for land and air transport.

Not supported

  • Schenker OCEAN transport is currently not supported
  • Dangerous goods details provided to Schenker

Carrier label

The eSchenker ordering integration provides the label back in PDF in any of the following two formats:

  • A4
  • A6

DB Schenker road label

eSchenker label

DB Schenker IATA air label

eSchenker air label

Note: Not all fields in the DB Schenker IATA air label are populated(e.g. airwaybill no, airline, departure, destination). This data is available later in the process, therefore Schenker allows customers to use their own label. Schenker relabels the shipment on arrival at the warehouse.

Loadmeter

Schenker NL Road prefers loadmeters to be provided for Road shipments. This allows them to plan their routes throughout the day as the bookings are being made. The loadmeter is provided to Schenker if the user enters the loadmeter in the shipment. For instances where the users cannot enter the loadmeter in the shipment, a setting can be made to have the integration calculate the loadmeter based on the shipment dimensions.

This is done by setting the Calculate loadmeters for land transport NL origins setting to Yes. The loadmeter is calculation is based on Schenker NL specifications but will apply for all countries if the setting is enabled:
eSchenkerNLLoadmeter

This is simplified to:

  1. Stackable pallets use calculation: Loadmeter = LxW/2.40/2
    1. Stackable means:
      1. Indicated as stackable in {handlingUnit}.isStackable = true
      2. Pallet is lower than 120cm : {handlingUnit}.height <= 120
    2. Pallets are defined in {handlingUnit}.packageTypeCode contains pal
  2. Non-stackable pallets use calculation: Loadmeter = LxW/2.40
    1. Non-stackable means:
      1. Indicated as non-stackable in {handlingUnit}.isStackable = false
      2. or pallet is higher than 120cm: {handlingUnit}.height > 120
      3. or any package (pallets or non-pallets) above 25kg
