This specification provides the definition of the International multimodal status request message (IFTSTQ) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport.
A message to request an International multimodal status report message (IFTSTA) in order to provide details relating to transport status and/or a change in the transport status between agreed parties.
The International multimodal status request message may be used for both national and international applications. It is based on universal practice related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not dependent on the type of business or industry.
This message allows for the request 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.
The request for status can be made by either:
APPROACHES a) AND b) MUST NOT BE USED TOGETHER WITHIN ONE IFTSTQ MESSAGE.
Data requirements for tracking equipment, where equipment is not associated with a consignment (such as repair container), are not addressed in this message.
The transport sub-working group (D4) has developed recommendations for a harmonised implementation of this message through its subgroup ITIGG (International Transport Implementation Guidelines Group). Users implementing the message are strongly advised to apply these recommendations, which may be obtained from the D4 secretariat.
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.3 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 1.
