INSTRUCTION TO DESPATCH MESSAGE (INSDES)<br />
88<br />
MIST Working Group, version 2001<br />
A message from a party to another party who has control over ordered goods, providing<br />
instructions to despatch or collect a consignment according to conditions specified in the<br />
message.<br />
The instruction to despatch message may be sent from a supplier or buyer to a third party<br />
service provider. The message may be used to identify at a complete message level or at a line<br />
item level.<br />
Usually the Instruction to Despatch message will be sent following a Cargo/Goods Handling<br />
and Movement message which was used to prepare goods <strong>for</strong> despatch. The Instruction to<br />
Despatch message must not be used to order transport services <strong>for</strong> the despatch of the goods.<br />
The <strong>Transport</strong> Instruction message must be used <strong>for</strong> this purpose.<br />
The message is sent from a supplier or a buyer to a third party service provider to request the<br />
service provider to despatch or collect specified goods and identify the delivery location(s),<br />
identify the date(s) on which delivery should take place, indicate that the despatch is subject to<br />
cash on delivery, etc. Because the third party service provider is outside the normal buyer to<br />
supplier order process, the instruction to despatch message may be used by the supplier or buyer<br />
to in<strong>for</strong>m the third party service provider of in<strong>for</strong>mation stated in the purchase order which is<br />
required <strong>for</strong> the effective despatch of the goods, e.g. terms of delivery, transport equipment<br />
required <strong>for</strong> the delivery; to enable the logistic service provider to produce a despatch advice on<br />
behalf of the buyer or supplier.<br />
SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS MESSAGE (IFTMIN or IFCSUM)<br />
A message from the party issuing an instruction regarding <strong>for</strong>warding/ transport services <strong>for</strong><br />
a consignment under conditions agreed, to the party arranging the <strong>for</strong>warding and/or<br />
transport services.<br />
The instruction results in a transport contract <strong>for</strong> a consignment and is primarily meant <strong>for</strong><br />
administrative purposes. It will be the message from shipper to carrier or <strong>for</strong>warder<br />
containing the final details of the consignment <strong>for</strong> which services are provided. The<br />
instruction message is the one and only message, which results in the actual contract, which<br />
can either be a document or an electronic contract.<br />
If only one message will suffice in an exchange between a shipper and a carrier/<strong>for</strong>warder<br />
the instruction message should be the one as this message is the only message that results in<br />
a contract. The receiving party is to ascertain whether the Instruction message is preceded<br />
by a Booking Firm message, to be able to interpret the function as being an administrative<br />
message only or an administrative and operational message.
