Systems Integration Map: WMS–WES–TMS for Cross-Docking
N.B. If revenues are seasonal, model ramp-up rather than a step jump. Include deprecation and maintenance capex only if relevant to cash or covenant tests; otherwise disclose treatment clearly.
📄 Prompt Template
Produce an interface and process map for [WMSName], [WESName], and [TMSName] enabling real-time cross-dock allocation and direct fulfillment label generation at [SiteCode]. Detail event sequencing from ASN receipt to dock allocation and manifest close for [CarrierPartner]. Output a technical blueprint: (1) swimlane diagram (textual) of events and APIs; (2) interface catalog [Message, Direction, Trigger, Frequency, Payload Fields, SLA]; (3) error handling matrix (timeouts, duplicates, label voids); (4) security & audit controls; and (5) cut-over checklist. Specify latency budgets (e.g., <[LatencyTargetMs] ms for pick release), idempotency keys, and fallback to store-and-forward if network drops. Align timestamps to a single time source and recommend monitoring (alerts, retries, dashboards).
