Setting up the TGP connection and goods movement reference (GMR) automation

Transcript of the narration, with the on-screen state at each step.

Opening

This video shows you how to connect your Trader Goods Profile and the Goods Vehicle Movement Service to the Trader Support Service. We will call them TGP, GVMS and TSS. Neither connection carries across from the previous service, so you need to set both up again. Only the account administrator can authorise this action.

Your business profile

On screen: Enabled trader goods profile is set to No

You only need to set this up if you have a TGP and you want to use it on the TSS. On your business profile, scroll down to Trader goods profile. It is not enabled yet. To set this up you will need access to your Government Gateway account.

Your business profile

On screen: Automation Permission is Not Granted

Below it is goods movement reference automation, also known as GMR automation. You only need to set this up if you plan to create goods movement references directly in the TSS rather than on GVMS. Automation Permission shows Not Granted. Those are the two settings we are going to turn on.
