Version | Date of Publication | Change | Purpose of change |
---|---|---|---|
25 April 2025 | Added a new optional property routingReference (Routing Reference) in the Booking request. | This allows customers who integrate with the DCSA Booking API and Commercial Schedules API (point-to-point) to place a booking request with a specific routing previously fetched from Commercial Schedules, so that the booking will be created with the exact routing they need, without spending extra time re-keying information (such as vessel and service name) or on booking amendments due to routing discrepancies. The same optional property has been added to the point-to-point API response endpoint of the Commercial Schedules API. | |
25 April 2025 | Added a new party function NAC (Named Account Customer) in the Document Parties in the Booking request and confirmation. | This allows the carrier to process the booking correctly, matching space against the specific NAC allocation and applying the correct rate from the pricing system, avoiding rate disputes and amendments. Example: Assume a freight forwarder has a contract with special rates and weekly allocation for 3 different customers (NACs). When they submit the booking request to the carrier they should provide the service contract reference and specify which of the 3 NACs they are booking for so that the carrier can apply the correct rate and space allocation. |
