This specification provides the definition of the Provisional booking message (IFTMBP) to be used
in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between partners involved in Administration, Commerce and Transport.
This paper provides the definition of the Provisional booking message to be used in fulfilling
the requirements of trading partners in the transport chain worldwide, in the interchange of
cargo and transport related information using Electronic Data Interchange (EDI).
This message is a single consignment based message, being aligned with other single
consignment based messages such as the other two booking messages (IFTMBF and IFTMBC), the
instruction messages (IFTMIN and IFTMCS) and the arrival notice message (IFTMAN).
The single consignment based messages can be used by all modes of transport for the forwarding
and transport of goods from any origin to any destination, regardless of route or prevailing
commercial practice. These messages are suitable for the arrangement of
the transport of goods between all parties to the movement of the consignment (including the
consignor/shipper and consignee as well as the forwarders, brokers, and carriers involved) as well
as providing the information necessary to perform that transport and delivery of the goods.
