Shipper Validation Reports
Shipper validation reports display shipper errors, rules, and validation profiles as well as simulate and provide audit trails for shipper validations. The following subsections describe reports included in shipper validation enhancements.

Description

7.9.11.14
Rules Report
Lets you view existing rules and the source/destination profiles that are associated with them. The system displays the rule ID and category, followed by validation fields and optional validation detail, and all profiles that contain the rule ID.
7.9.11.15
Error Report
Lets you view shippers that fail the shipper process. You can view validation errors by shipper or profile.
Hierarchy Report
The Hierarchy Report displays source/destination profile data in a hierarchical manner that is similar to a bill of material structure. The structure consists of levels that show the profiles and the rules and fields that are associated with them as shown in Profile Hierarchy.
The Hierarchy Report only displays field validations at the lowest level if there is a common field validation at two different levels in the hierarchy.

The system displays the highest level profile first. The highest level profile is one in which you specify only a source country and leave other profile hierarchy fields blank. The lowest level profile is one in which you specify a Dock field. The system may fill some fields, even if you leave them blank.
Note: The global profile that applies to all shippers is a level 1 because the system stores the rules associated with the global profile with a blank source country.
