Input6.1 Agreement orderUnless otherwise agreed, documents and agreements shallapply in the following order:• Conditions agreed in an individual case• EDI agreement (takes precedence over agreementprerequisites and EDI order)• General EDI provisionsInformation regarding compulsory delivery details, as wellas instructions on how to fill in transport instructions/STE label, can be found in the ‘Instructions for transportdocuments’ fact sheet.Information on compulsory delivery details, as well asinstructions on how to fill in a waybill/STL label, can befound in the ‘Instructions for transport documents’ factsheet.6.2 DB Schenker general EDI provisionsDB Schenker General EDI provisions are based on GeneralTerms and Conditions according to EDI Agreement 2004drawn up by GEA (Alliance for Electronic Commerce).Agreement prerequisites and these General EDI provisionsregulate the terms and conditions for the parties’ exchangeof EDI messages.Parties using DB Schenker’s Web-TA to send transportinstructions electronically accept application of theseGeneral EDI Provisions directly when requesting access toDB Schenker’s Web-TA.6.3 DefinitionsIn the Agreement prerequisites and the General EDIProvisions, the terms, concepts and definitions are asfollows:Party 1 refers to DB Schenker and Party 2 refers to thetransport agreement customer.An EDI customer is a customer who sends electronictransport instructions (IFTMIN) to DB Schenker.An EDI message is a coherent entity with data, that isstructured in accordance with the agreed message standardsand is in a format that can be transferred between andprocessed by both parties’ information systems.EDI refers to the automated electronic exchange of EDImessages between the parties’ information systems.Exchange of EDI messages refers to both the sending andreceiving of EDI messages.Transport instruction refers to an EDI message sentby Party 2, containing the details required according toDB Schenker’s AGI, Instructions for goods labelling andinformation transfer, to enable DB Schenker to carry outthe assignment.VAN supplier is a third party that manages a communicationssystem and/or EDI system for one party inconjunction with the exchange of EDI messages inaccordance with the Agreement prerequisites.6.4 Information system for EDI exchangeEach party is responsible for maintaining informationsystem availability to facilitate the agreed exchange ofEDI messages.During implementation and throughout the duration of theAgreement, each party shall perform tests and employ othermeasures to ensure that the information system fulfilsall requirements according to the Agreement prerequisitesand the General EDI Provisions. Each party is responsiblefor its own costs for exchange of EDI messages throughoutthe duration of the Agreement, unless agreed otherwise.Each party has the right, at its own expense and risk, touse a VAN supplier or other third party to provide servicessuch as exchange, processing, storage or other actionrelated to EDI messages. If the parties engage the sameVAN supplier or other third party, and the issue of liabilityarises for a particular action this third party has taken, theparty on whose behalf the action was taken will be liable inrelation to the other party.If either party intends to modify parts of its informationsystem in a way that can be expected to affect theexchange of EDI messages, the counter-party shall benotified of this well in advance so that the parties can9

jointly carry out appropriate testing to ensure thatexchange of EDI messages can be exchanged in the agreedmanner even after the modifications.6.5 Exchange of EDI messagesA party receiving an EDI message in accordance with theAgreement prerequisites shall attend to and process themessage without delay.DB Schenker recommends that Party 2 transfers EDI filesimmediately following print-out of the transport documentor on an ongoing basis several times a day to ensure thatthe EDI information is available at Party 1 before theconsignment arrives at the terminal.If no other time is specified in the Agreementprerequisites, Party 2 must send the transport instructionsto Party 1 without delay and no later than immediatelyafter the goods are loaded at Party 2. This also applies inconjunction with use of a Third Party.For international consignments, the information shouldnormally be transferred in conjunction with the order.For certain transport arrangements and customsconsiderations, the consignment information must betransferred to DB Schenker in conjunction with the orderbefore the unit can be loaded.Party 2 is responsible for ensuring that the content of thetransport instructions concurs with the goods that havebeen loaded.In the event of a deviation between the content of EDImessages exchanged by the parties and correspondinginformation submitted on paper or using another medium,the EDI message applies unless it is evident that thesending party intended the information submitted usinganother medium to take precedence.Party 2 shall keep security copies/back-ups of transfersmade for at least five (5) working days, so that these canbe resent on request.Both parties must be able to show proof of sent andreceived messages for at least the past 30 calendar days,calculated from the planned transport date. Extracts mustbe readable and be provided free of charge.6.6 EDI message – exchange failure or errorIf either party finds that a message cannot be exchangedvia EDI, or if corruption is detected in an EDI message,the counter-party must be notified immediately. The partymust then send the information in accordance with theprocedure approved in advance by the counter-party.Once the fault has been rectified, the parties must jointlydecide on and perform the necessary tests before ordinaryexchange of EDI messages resumes.If transport instructions are missing prior to the arrivalof the goods at the first terminal, this may result in thegoods not being unloaded or being transferred to a storagearea where they will be subject to storage costs at currentrates. Party 1 reserves the right to charge Party 2 for alladditional costs resulting from the absence of transportinstructions. However, such costs are not debited ifParty 2, after a message from Party 1, has made use ofthe procedure approved in advance by the other party. Itis only if Party 2, despite receiving information about themissing transport instructions, has not sent a new copy orutilised the procedure approved in advance by the counterparty,that costs can be charged.In the event of a missing EDI message, Party 1 must informParty 2’s contact person according to the Agreementprerequisites. In the absence of transport instructions atthe time of the arrival of the goods at the first terminal,no timetables or guarantees apply.In the event of a computer breakdown affecting one of theparties or to/at the VAN supplier, the contact person forthe counter-party must be informed of this according tothe Agreement prerequisites. In the event of a computerbreakdown, the parties shall assist one another to the bestof their ability.6.7 Binding effect of EDI messagesWhen transport agreements, legal requirements or otherdirectives require that messages be delivered in writing,this requirement is considered to be fulfilled by EDI messagesexchanged according to Agreement prerequisites andthese General EDI Provisions.An EDI message shall, unless proven otherwise, beregarded as having been received by the receiving partyonce the transfer that includes the message has beenlogged as received in the agreed format by the receivingparty, or, if the party’s VAN supplier, according to the logkept by the VAN supplier, has received EDI messages.An EDI message shall, unless proven otherwise, beregarded as having been sent by the sending party oncethe transfer that includes the EDI message has been loggedas sent by the sending party, or, if EDI messages have beensent via the party’s VAN supplier, according to the log keptby the VAN supplier.The sending party bears the risk of the EDI messages thatform part of a transfer being lost, delayed or corruptedduring transfer until the transfer has been logged as received.An EDI message sent by either party in accordance withthe Agreement prerequisites shall be regarded as havingbeen sent with authorisation and binding on the sendingparty unless the sending party can prove that the EDI messagewas sent without authorisation and that the counterpartywas or should have been aware of this.DB Schenker reserves the right to amend details in anelectronically sent Transport Instruction to ensure that theassignment can be completed.6.8 EDI message securityThe parties shall implement and maintain proceduresand technology for protecting EDI messages and securitycopies/back-ups against unauthorised access, corruption,loss of information and other harmful actions.6.9 ConfidentialityAny information that a party obtains by means of theexchange of information in accordance with the Agreementprerequisites and these General EDI provisions shallbe handled in accordance with the confidentiality rulesstipulated in the transport agreement. If either partyengages a VAN supplier, the party in question shall ensurethat the VAN supplier is also bound by such confidentiality.10

In the event information held by a party can be consideredto be in the public domain, then the party shall observethe statutory provisions regarding the accessibility andconfidentiality of such documents as applicable. If eitherparty receives an EDI message from a sending party whichis obviously intended for someone else, it is the duty ofthe receiving party to inform the sending party of thisimmediately and to delete the EDI message, but not itscorresponding security copy/back-up.6.10 LiabilityIf either party, or a VAN supplier or other third partyengaged by either party, violates the provisions of theAgreement prerequisites or these General EDI Provisions,the party concerned is liable to compensate the counterpartyfor any resulting damage. Compensation shall onlybe payable for direct damage, unless the damage has beencaused deliberately or through gross negligence.6.11 Applicable law and dispute resolutionIn the event of a dispute arising out of or in connectionwith the Agreement prerequisites or these General EDIProvisions, the provisions of the transport agreement shallapply as regards applicable law and the method of disputeresolution.

Freight calculationThe term consignment refers to goods included in transport instructions from oneor several consignors to one consignee at a certain location and made available fortransport on one occasion. A consignment may not exceed the weight/volume ofthe load capacity of the vehicle.To assess the weight-based freight, the following information must always be statedfor the full consignment in addition to the weight in full kg:– Volume in cubic metres. The value is stated to two decimal places followed by m 3 .– Flat metres. Must be stated for consignments that are difficult to pack and ontop of which other goods cannot be loaded. The value should be stated to onedecimal place followed by FLM.– Pallet space = non-stackable pallet. The value is stated followed by PP.In the case of goods that are difficult to stow, because of the nature of the object orthe packing means that they cannot be packed as normal groupage with other goods ormaximum use cannot be made of the load area, the freight is calculated in such a waythat consideration is given to the load area required by the goods (see weight per flatmetre table next to the heading Goods that are difficult to stow).The term flat metre refers to a metre on the platform with the full width and height ofthe load space.The term actual weight or gross weight refer to the weight of the consignment as registeredon the scales, including packing and loading accessories (e.g. pallets).The term bulk weight refers to the consignment volume (length x width x height)expressed in cubic metres to two decimal places, including packing and loadingaccessories (e.g. pallets) multiplied by the weight accordance with the table(see table under the heading Calculating bulky goods) or when calculating flat metre,the number of flat metres to one decimal place multiplied by the weight inaccordance with the table (Calculating flat metre for bulky goods).Freight calculationBulky goods:Freight calculated according to:Domestic: For a non-stackable pallet, the price iscalculated according to pallet space.International: For a stackable pallet with a height ofless than 1.5 m incl. the pallet, the price is calculatedaccording to volume.

The size of the freight is based on weight or volume (which is convertedto weight), as well as on the distance between two rate points.DB SCHENKERcoldsped. The prices are based on weight, volume and distance.Freight prices are calculated according to a price list agreed upon betweenDB Schenker and the customer or in relation to a price list applied by DB Schenkerfor c-classified locations. As agreed, transport can be undertaken to other locationsc1, c2, c3 and c4 (see DB Schenker Location list). A distribution surcharge is payableon these occasions.DB SCHENKERparcel.

The locations are divided into two categories: primary locationsand secondary locations. Each secondary location is linked to a specific primary location,which is the rate point when calculating distance. Each primary location and therelated secondary locations make up a primary location area.Location list. The DB Schenker Location list shows, in alphabetical order, all theSwedish locations that can be used as address locations. Only one location name maybe used as a dispatching destination or receiving location. Location names other thanthe ones listed in the Location list may not be used as an address without separateagreement.DB SCHENKERsystem, -direct and -coldsped. The Location list states the countyand rate point for secondary locations.DistanceWhen calculating the freight only the distance between the primary locations (ratepoints) is used, see DB Schenker distance table. The distances are taken from theSwedish Transport Administration distance table. The distances for consignments toand from Gotland are calculated via Nynäshamn or Oskarshamn, whereby 150 kmis added to the distance between the primary locations. Using the position of theprimary locations as a starting point, Schenker always attempts to find the shortestroute when calculating the freight for Gotland consignments.Other informationNB: In the tables issued by DB Schenker, the distance between Gotland and Nynäshamn/Oskarshamn(150 km) is included in the stated distances between locationson the mainland and Gotland.

KAPITEL C. Combiterms 2000Incoterms 2010Combiterms 2010 – Land transportIn the case of cross-border transport assignments DB Schenker makes use of of theCombiterms 2011 rules.Combiterms were first published in 1969 and with thisversion they have been updated four times. This takesplace each time in association with the correspondingrevision of Incoterms, which are the interpretation rulesfor the International Chamber of Commerce for the moreimportant delivery clauses in world trade.Combiterms, which do not compete with Incoterms, are anaid when translating the legal text Incoterms into a costdivision between seller and buyer.In a simple and easily understandable way Combitermsshows the costs which arise in conjunction with crossbordertransport. Examples of such costs are collection,storage, loading, unloading and distribution. Other examplesare customs, taxes and charges as well as the CIPinsurance costs clause.Particularly in conjunction with the transport of groupage,costs arise which could be difficult to divide betweenvendor and purchaser. Combiterms solve this by combiningthe terms of trade with an easily understandable systemfor dividing costs between the parties. The risk of interpretationproblems is reduced.To further avoid different interpretations DB Schenker hasemployed the practice of agreeing with the customer onthe application of a cost division before the transportassignment is performed.Under the heading ‘Remarks’ points 1-2, there is clarificationof the interpretation of ‘terminal’ in the exportcountry and the import country, freight paid and excludingcosts.www.dbschenker.com/seOn the DB Schenker website you can find PDF files withCombiterms 2011 – Land transport, which are applied byDB Schenker.For further information you are always welcome tocontact your nearest DB Schenker office.26
