Change load status

The change load status transaction is equivalent to the changeLoadStatus() API. For detailed information about this transaction, see the IBM Sterling Order Management: Javadoc.

To be configured as part of your load processing pipeline, this transaction can be used whenever an automatic change in the status of a load is required. This automatic change could represent exporting load information to load planning software or transmission to the load's carrier.

This transaction should be configured to work from the task queue.
