Global Despatch Advice
In May 2003 Odette issued a new electronic version of the Despatch Advice document. This new message, called Global DESADV Version 1, is used in parallel with the existing AVIEXP/DESADV Version 5R1. It was developed by Odette in collaboration with their American and Japanese automotive counterpart organisations – AIAG & JAMA/JAPIA.
This new message covers all the functionalities existing in the previous message, and was enhanced by the addition of important new features. These can be divided in two parts:
1) Functionalities linked with the American and Japanese business practices such as:
- Freight cost management;
- Mapping between inner and outer package by a parent-child relationship;
- Shikyu process – specific relationship between Customers and Tier1 and Tier2 Suppliers.
|
2) Functionalities linked with packaging structure and packaging identification practices such as: - The possibility to describe several intermediate packaging levels (e.g., Intermediate Outer package); |
The Global DESADV message has many benefits. For instance:
|
- By regrouping European, American and Japanese business practices within a single message it allows Odette members to fulfil the new logistics requirements of an increasingly dynamic international market. |
As proof of success in Europe, the Volkswagen Group and Volvo Truck have already announced their intention to implement the Global DESADV message.
