1.3.1.3     Add Jurisdiction Distance

The navigation tabs at the top of the screen will indicate that the user is now at the “Distance” step in the New Fleet supplement.

The user will be able to add jurisdictions using multiple methods:

1.      Selecting the jurisdiction of travel by selecting the jurisdiction on the map (use Show Map link), entering the distance and the type (Actual, Estimated, No Travel Intended) and clicking the ADD button, or

2.      Selecting the jurisdiction of travel by selecting the jurisdiction from the dropdown,  entering the distance and type of distance, and clicking the ADD button.

3.      In addition to individual jurisdictions in the drop down, you can select Surrounding Jurisdictions or All Jurisdictions, select the type of distance from the dropdown and then click the ADD button. This will populate the spreadsheet with the appropriate jurisdictions based on the selection.

After the user enters the jurisdictions, the distance type and distance are required. The month and year will be defaulted to the supplement effective month and year. The user can make adjustments if necessary.  Adjustments would only be necessary if the carrier was operating in another jurisdiction and estimated jurisdictions should be calculated using E2 logic.

After reviewing the applicant’s Distance Schedule, the user may data enter the distance for each jurisdiction, or elect to use the estimated distance table.

To use the estimated distance option the user must:

·         Check the estimated distance chart check box

·         Enter the No. of Vehicles (The default is 0)

·         Set the jurisdiction distance type to “E” for estimated for every jurisdiction with estimated miles

·         When PROCEED is selected the distance for the estimated jurisdictions will populate from the estimated distance table

The system will calculate the total distances and compare them to the “user entered” totals for each of these:

·         Actual

·         Estimated

·         Total Distance

If the totals do not match the distances entered by the user, the system will display an error message.

In some cases, the registrant will provide actual distance for a new account/fleet. The user will enter the distance and select type “A” for actual distance.

The system will ensure a carrier has included all the jurisdictions necessary to create a path to the base jurisdiction. If the system cannot find a contiguous path for all jurisdictions specified, an error message displays. The override contiguous jurisdiction indicator will be defaulted to ‘N’ (unchecked) indicating a contiguous check. If the override indicator is checked, the user must provide a comment to indicate a reason for the non-contiguous jurisdictions.

There may be documents required for creating the jurisdictions of travel and the appropriate distances.

After all of the distance information is entered, click the PROCEED button on the command line at the bottom of the screen. The system will check for any missing information and calculate the percentage of distance travelled for each jurisdiction. This information will display on the verification screen along with the rest of the jurisdiction information. If there are any changes required, the user can click the BACK button on the command line to make the necessary changes and continue processing. If the user wants to remove the distance from jurisdictions and start over , they can click the BACK WITH REFRESH button.

After the distance information has been entered and verified, click the PROCEED button from the command line and the Fleet Weight Group Detail screen will be displayed.

The navigation tabs at the top of the screen will indicate that the user is now at the “WgtGroup” step in the supplement.

NOTE:  The Add Jurisdiction function will no longer apply when Full Reciprocity is implemented and the fleet effective date is January 1, 2015 or greater. 

1.3.1.4     Add Weight Group

To enter a weight group for the fleet, do the following:

·         Weight Group No. – The field will auto-populate with a number based on existing data.  It will display 1 if no weight groups exist or will display the next number in succession for any existing weight group numbers. The number can be changed, if desired, but cannot be equal to an existing weight group number.

·         Select the maximum gross weight for the weight group from the drop down. If you select “Other”, a new field will appear and you must enter the maximum gross weight allowed for that weight group.

·         If any of the jurisdictions have a different weight (weight override), enter the weight for that jurisdiction.

·         Click the PROCEED button on the command line to populate the weight for the remaining jurisdictions and the verification screen will display. If a weight is outside the 10% variance, a warning message will display in the message area at the top of the screen and then the user must enter an explanation of the 10% weight variance using comments.

·         The system will check to ensure the weight for each jurisdiction does not exceed the maximum weight allowed in the specific jurisdiction.

·         If any of the weights need to be changed, click the BACK button on the command line and the system will display the Jurisdiction weights for changes.

Click the PROCEED button on the command line and the Weight Group Selection screen will display the new weight group in a selection list along with any other weight groups created.

To create another weight group, click the ADD WGT GRP button on the command line and repeat the above steps.

To update a weight group, click the “SELECT” link to the left of the weight group number you wish to change and that weight group information will display.  You will be able to change the information as required.

To delete a weight group, click the “SELECT” link to the left of the weight group number you wish to delete and that weight group information will display.   

 

Select DELETE WEIGHT GROUP from the command line.  If the weight group is not attached to any vehicle currently in the system, the weight group will be deleted.  User will be prompted to confirm the delete action.

After all weight groups have been created and verified, click the DONE button on the command line and the “Vehicle Detail” screen will display.  The navigation tabs at the top of the screen will indicate that the user is now at the “Vehicle” step in the supplement.
