Check digits from SIS
Hi,
Let's look at the case when "A" sends an AWB, with badly computed check digit, to "B".
- Will SIS inform "A" about this error?
- Will SIS forward that erroneous billing to "B" or will that billing be held in SIS until the error is corrected?
In a nut shell, is it possible for us to receive an AWB with badly calculated check digit in IDEC from SIS?
Thank you,
Michael |

Hi Michael, 1) Carrier ‘A’ will be informed if the incorrect check digit is 7 or 8 as this will result in a correctible error. In this case SIS will hold the billing until it is corrected. 2) If the check digit is between 0-6 or 9 then the file will be successfully validated and sent across to carrier ‘B’ but SIS will highlight that check digit is incorrect under the “IS-Validation” field in the file. So in essence, yes – you may receive incorrect check digits in the IS-IDEC file but these will be indicated by SIS in the “IS-Validation” field. Hope that helps. Rgds, Ashley From: VOICHEK michael
