Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for transporting parcel shipments.
- a generic method is known from French patent application FR 2 563 987.
- mail items are transported to an electronic parcel compartment system.
- the recipients of the mail item can identify themselves as authorized to access the electronic parcel compartment system and remove the parcel.
- the invention has for its object to develop the known method so that a better utilization of the capacities of the electronic parcel compartment system is achieved.
- this object is achieved in that the electronic parcel compartment system records an identification information identifying the mail item and / or generates the identification information upon delivery of a mail item, and that the identification information is recorded and / or recorded and evaluated in subsequent processing operations of the mail items in a data processing component storing transport data ,
- storage capacities of the electronic parcel compartment system as well as the transport space of means of transport, for example vehicles, are used more effectively for the transport of the mail items.
- a deliverer preferably removes mail items intended for further transport within a logistics system from the electronic parcel compartment system and then places in the electronic parcel compartment system those mail items which can subsequently be picked up by users of the electronic parcel compartment system in the area of the electronic parcel compartment system.
- the invention preferably enables both the most flexible possible allocation of the compartments and an exploitation of the fact that the available storage capacity of the electronic parcel compartment system is increased by removing mail items for further transport in the logistics system.
- a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the identification information is recorded both when the mail item is posted and when the mail item is removed from the electronic parcel compartment system.
- a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the same means that can also be used for the transmission of the identification information can be used for the transmission of the event information about the delivery and / or collection of mail items.
- both variants have specific advantages. For example, the joint transmission of the information about the collection or delivery of the mail items and the simultaneous transmission of the identification information enables comprehensive shipment tracking.
- a combination of the different means of transmission leads both to the highest possible security of payment for the shipping company that operates the logistics system and to the most comprehensive possible shipment tracking.
- a combination is also suitable for items that have already been prepaid, e.g. Prepaid package products. It is also possible to establish and use a separate parcel brand for the delivery of parcels in ELECTRONIC PACKAGE TECHNICAL SYSTEMS or to adapt the current fee model for the freeway parcel brand to a purely size-dependent staggering.
- the operation at the machine can be completed relatively quickly.
- the customer only has to scan the label on the machine.
- the customer with the parcel acceptance function has the option of selecting a shipper within the Deutsche Post World Net group. For example, after successfully setting the shipment, the customer can choose between several delivery types. For example, a normal delivery 1 * and an express delivery '' can be selected. If the customer chooses an express delivery, he may be asked to pay a corresponding additional amount by EC or money card.
- the process in the case of express delivery can then, for example, be such that the electronic parcel compartment system system sends a notification (via SMS / email) with the required information (where to collect the shipment, by when must the shipment be delivered to where, .. .) to the logistics partner.
- a notification via SMS / email
- the required information where to collect the shipment, by when must the shipment be delivered to where, .. .
- 1 is a block diagram with a particularly preferred acceptance of packets with identity code
- Fig. 2 is a block diagram with a particularly preferred acceptance of packets with a certain identity code
- Fig. 3 is a block diagram with a particularly preferred acceptance of packets and parcels. Franking of shipments
- Returns codes are separate number ranges that are only assigned to returns.
- the transport fees for return codes are billed retrospectively (i.e. after the consignment has been sent from the recipient back to the sender) with Deutsche Post.
- the sender assigns the return codes to the order, depending on the ERP or customer management system. This means that with knowledge of the return code, the sender could identify the shipment or the possible content of the return.
- the number ranges of ID and return codes for business customers of Irish Post are stored in a central database. A connection to this database enables the identity codes or return codes to be checked. If the return codes are known in the system, they can be forwarded to the shipper with little effort. For example, the senders could be offered the additional service "advice of returns".
- the shipment must have an identity code.
- the identity code is scanned in at the machine and checked using the check digit logic. If the identification code is correct, the consignment can be accepted. If the scanned code is not correct or is not an identity code, the storage of the shipment is refused.
- not only the identity code is checked, but also a routing code that is attached to the shipment.
- the routing code is expediently checked for the number of digits, checksum and for specific return product codes which form part of the routing code. This leads to an increase in security when checking returns, and the customer is asked, for example, to scan both barcodes on his return label.
- an ELECTRONIC PACKAGE TECHNICAL SYSTEM - a price for all packages or a price graduation according to the compartment size - not as before depending on size and weight.
- Each FREEWAY BRAND contains an identity code.
- the number ranges used for each label (S, M, L, XL, F) are directly related to the compartment size (S, M, L, XL). If an identity code of a WFREEWAY BRAND S parcel stamp is scanned, only a small compartment opens. If all small subjects are occupied, the next largest subject may open.
- FIG. 1 A block diagram with a particularly preferred acceptance of packets with identity code is shown in FIG. 1. Only parcels - i.e. items requiring proof - are accepted for the electronic parcel compartment system. For the specialist Correct identification and guide code is required.
- the user selects 'drop parcel' and is asked to scan the two barcodes (identity and lead code) of his shipment. (If the scan is unsuccessful, manual entry is preferred.)
- the machine prints a receipt [information: post number; Electronic parcel compartment number would; Date and Time; IDC, subject number, logistics provider]
- the parcel data (see 9.) are forwarded to the Post24 system. From there, the information of the logistics provider may be triggered.
- the deliverer specifies the post number when the shipment is set, since this can be used to send a notification to the recipient.
- the user authenticates himself at the machine with his post number and his PostPIN.
- the electronic parcel compartment system knows the person who collects each parcel. requirements
- the addressing contains the recipient's postal number.
- the deliverer sets the shipment by entering the post number.
- the notification can be triggered based on the recipient identity.
