[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 96515, member: 4886"] Just as an fyi. The derived and logical scan is one in the same thing. Some people use the term derived, some people logical. Here's how UPS does the scanning. A physical scan occur when we have a scanner and phyically scan the bar code on the pkg, prior to loading it into a package car or a smalls bag or an air igloo or a trailer. The biggest mistake we can make is if a loader is loading more then one trailer at the same time and his scanner is set for Trailer A when in fact he is loading in trailer B. This would result in us saying a pkg is someplace it is not. As far as derived or logical scans. When we tell the computers that the trailer has left the building then all the pkgs that were scanned into that trailer get a derived (or logical) scan indicating the trailer and the pkgs are on their way to the next building. When the trailer arrives to the destination center (the UPS location that loads it into the package cars that will deliver it) then we tell the computer that the trailer has arrived. Therefore, the computer derives a destination scan for each pkg that was already scanned into the trailer. Hope that explains it. Beentheredonethat [/QUOTE]
