Transportation Control Number (TCN), Part II, Appendix L
Defense Transportation Regulation – Part IICargo Movement28 June 2016APPENDIX LTRANSPORTATION CONTROL NUMBER (TCN)A. GENERAL1. The TCN is a 17-character data element assigned to control and manage every shipment unitthroughout the transportation pipeline and for payment processing. The TCN for each shipmentunit is unique and not to be duplicated within the Defense Transportation System (DTS) duringthe life cycle of the TCN construct (see note below). Exceptions: For unit move cargo, a TCNmay be reused in accordance with (IAW) Service procedures for multiple DTS movements of thesame piece of serialized-cargo (e.g., a TCN constructed using a specific bumper/registrationnumber) or a standardized-cargo content configuration (e.g., a TCN assigned to a type of enginestand or floodlight/light cart—a consolidated load such as 463L pallet or mixed-content mobilitycontainer does not meet the criteria), and a misdirected shipment may be re-shipped using theoriginal TCN.2. The 17-character TCN is essentially composed of a series of data sets uniquely associated with ashipping activity and serialized, as applicable, by that activity to generate a unique trackingnumber that is either time-sensitive (by Julian date) or instance-sensitive (the combined datainstance seldom repeats). For the TCN constructs that follow, there is a potential for TCNduplication that must be mitigated by the shipping activity; however, the duplication seldomoccurs (see Potential TCN Duplication IAW Construct Business Rules, Table L-1). The TCNconstruction is designed to provide uniqueness as generated worldwide by all Department ofDefense (DoD) shippers without a cross-reference to each other’s business process. Forserialized TCNs, the uniqueness of the TCN is the responsibility of the shipping activitygenerating the TCN. The TCN is not intended to be parsed for data content. TCN constructionformats for the various types of shipment units or shippers are detailed in the paragraphs listedbelow.NOTE: Different work functions with the same Department of Defense Activity Address Code(DODAAC) (e.g., supply, traffic management, 463L pallet build-up) must pre-coordinate TCNserial number sets when different TCN constructs include a shared DODAAC. For example, aMilitary Standard Requisitioning and Issue Procedures (MILSTRIP)-based TCN (Paragraph B)could be duplicated if the same organizational DODAAC created a non-MILSTRIP based TCN(Paragraph H) and used the same serialization scheme. Also, TCN constructs by the sameactivity based on embedded Julian dates may not be unique after 10 years. System programmanagers are cautioned to account for the potential TCN duplication by using several shipmentunit data points (i.e., TCN and consignee DODAAC) to differentiate between shipment units withregard to payment and archive processing.Type of Shipment UnitParagrapha.

The partial and split shipment codes indicate whether or not a shipment unit is separated intoincrements and, if separated, identify the specific increments. Cargo identified by DI TU asassemblies or sets, which must move together in a shipment unit, are not divided into partial orsplit shipments. The partial and split shipment codes are required to ensure a 17-character TCNis not duplicated. While the same letter codes are used for both partial and split shipment entries,the partial shipment entry (position 16, rp 45) is made by the shipper and the split shipment entry(position 17, rp 46) is made by the transshipper. The only time a shipper makes a split shipmententry is for shipments of vehicles with detached component parts as explained in this Paragraph.The assignment of partial and split shipment codes differ for surface and air shipments asexplained in subparagraphs a and b below.a.
