hello. I need help understanding what ETA and PTA is

To my understanding ETA means estimated time of arrival to the shipper or receiver.

Can some verify that and also help me understand what PTA is? Thanks in advance

The filth filter is sensitive! It's a medical term for where the doo-doo comes out.
