# New Inquiry

> A comprehensive orchestration wizard for detailed logistics planning.

The **New Inquiry** wizard facilitates the advanced configuration of complex, multi-service logistics requests through a structured, four-step orchestration process.

## Step 1: Route Selection

Powered by integrated geospatial intelligence, this stage identifies the primary transit points of your shipment:

* **Origin & Destination**: Precise location identification for both pickup and final delivery.
* **Stop-over (Optional)**: Inclusion of transit hubs or secondary collection points.
* **Visual Mapping**: Real-time geospatial visualization of the selected logistics path.

## Step 2: Choose Your Path

Review and select from multiple calculated logistics routes:

* **Multi-Modal Analysis**: The system evaluates available paths across **Rail**, **Road**, **Sea**, and **Air**.
* **Route Summary**: View distance metrics and transport legs for each possible orchestration path.

## Step 3: Select Service Type

Define the operational parameters of the transport:

* **Service Categories**: Select from **Door-to-Door**, **Door-to-Terminal**, **Terminal-to-Door**, or **Terminal-to-Terminal**.
* **Terminal Handling**: Configure specific handling requirements at origin or destination hubs based on the selected service category.

## Step 4: Specify Units & Goods

Input granular technical data to finalize the logistics requirement:

* **Loading Unit Specification**: Define intermodal units, including type, size, quantity, and weight.
* **Cargo Specifications**: Capture specialized data such as **NHM Codes**, **Dangerous Goods (ADR/UN)**, or **Waste (CER)**.
* **Handling Constraints**: Specify constraints like **Craneability** or specific temperature requirements.

## Multi-Service Orchestration

The wizard supports high-density inquiries by allowing users to add multiple distinct service requests (the "basket" approach) before final submission. This ensures that complex global supply chain requirements are captured within a single, unified inquiry ID.
