The sheet Header is the identity card of your order:

The order's header contains seven different types of information:

1) Identity

    • Section: this is a hard-coded field, for OCB missions it will be "MSF Belgique"
    • Mission: you can only select missions for which you have got rights (usually one)
    • Project: there you put the project code that you place the order for
    • Category: it may be "logistic" or "medical" according to the content
    • Level: that is usually hard-coded, "cellule" stands for urgent orders placed by HQ, whilst "mission" is for the others
    • Fiscal year: the Portal prompts you with the ongoing budgetary year that your order will be invoiced for. When approaching the following year you may have the option to select that one

2) References

    • Ref. order: for Unifield users that will be the PO reference that you can copy and paste in the field. It can be automatically assigned by the Portal, so that you will not have to fill it out (if you want this function please contact msfsupply.portail@brussels.msf.org) . Here below is the different Ref. order that the Portal handles:

    • Ref. field: for Unifield users that will be the FO number
    • Ref. project PO: for Unifield users that will be the PO project reference
    • Ref. project IR: for Unifield users that will be the IR reference (not yet in the Unifield PO export file)

3) Title

    • Description: there you put a text resuming the content of the order, e.g. "1st quarter psychotropic drugs"
    • Comments: any other information, for instance to the attention of HQ or MSF Supply

4) Contacts

5) Other info

    • You can attach extra information, such as pictures of a spare part, documents…
    • In this field the Portal also stores the original file that you use to import the order lines

6) Delivery

    • Dispatch code: this is the delivery address and it is hard-coded. The delivery addresses are agreed with MSF Supply prior to order transmission in the Portal
    • Transport mode: air, sea, road, express, head office and charter
    • Desired delivery date: day of delivery. A warning message will appear when the date diverges from the lead time agreed with MSF Supply
    • Priority: normal priority, priority, urgent

7) Summary

    • it shows the split per accounting code of the costs, weight, volume of the goods that you are ordering
    • A link to the estimation of your transport cost is also included (takes the highest bid, contact your freight operator for more information)
