InApp replaced the system with a modern web based and communications enabled system, thereby making it possible to include users like Forwarding Agents, Statutory Government Agencies and Global Airports into the system. We developed the Cargo Management System for the two Cargo Complexes, to interact with the Government’s ICE-Gate, Customs Department along with all the required functionality for Warehouse Management. In line with the International Conventions, messaging in Indian Airports is handled through an EDI network. We replaced the system with a modern web based and communications enabled mechanism, thereby making it possible to include users like Forwarding Agents, Statutory Government Agencies and Global Airports into the network. A central server of the Indian Customs and Excise Department (ICE-Gate)
relays EDI messages to the Air Cargo Complexes throughout the country. This messaging system collects messages from International Airports, validates them and supplies the information to the Airports in India. The messages from the Indian Airports to other parts of the world are also channelized through the EDI system. Messages meant for any airport in the world is sent to the central server from where it is then relayed to the specific airport. InApp integrated the three distinct functions such as Handling of Import & Export Cargo and the warehousing operations. The Integrated system needed to be robust, scalable and adaptable to frequent change. The application was developed using JBoss Application Server tools and technologies. Web services were used to receive and send data between the three modules. The application was also enhanced later on to include the GST preferences of the Indian Government which enabled hassle-free transactions. We divided the system functionality into four well-defined services: Import / Export / Warehousing and Goods Checkout. The systems are linked to each other through custom web services. InApp developed the relevant framework and contracts between the 4 modules in the year 2004 when the concept of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) was very new with access to minimal tools
The Import module receives the EDI Manifest and makes it available for
verification to the ground staff. After verification, if there are any discrepancies, it is intimated to the customs and the Government of India for security
purposes. Once the manifest is found to be in accordance with the goods
received, it is then handed over to the Warehouse Server.
The warehousing server receives the manifest and calculates the product charges. In addition to that, it is also used to manage and track the goods received to the exact location inside the warehouse
The Export module receives the list of goods to be exported along with their
destination and other information. A bill is prepared based on the weight of
goods. On payment of the charges, a “Goods Arrived” message is sent to the
customs server. After physical inspection, the customs server issues a ‘Let
Export Order’.
The Checkout system is used for providing imported goods to the agents or customers. The customer is required to provide their Airway bill to claim their respective goods.
