Licensing: Background

The concept is that Licenses are captured and requested online on TWM by importers then approved by ministries online also, during this approval operation TWM generates a License number. The importer who owns the licenses that he requested is able to retrieve them and print them in order to hand over the corresponding details to the declarant.

Accesing eLicences using Find option

Step 1	Access TWM using user name and password
Step 2	From the document library, select option "Licensing "
Step 3	From the Licensing option, right click and select FIND to open the finder.

Radio buttons:

Unit of measurement: Default value at creation, when selected, the cursor should go to the UoM code field on the right side of it. We have access to the UoM codes available for that HS code as a drop down list. Most of the time there will be only one or none from the tariff. If none this radio button should be disabled, if only one, the system should populate the field with the unique UoM when radio button selected, erased when unselected.

This facility is present on all items and allows a quick search of one or two items containing the specific Tariff Heading, after having entered the Tariff code and pressed ENTER; the system will color in red the tab containing the Tariff code. The user will be free to go to the corresponding tab or stay on the same.
