You can use the Cargo Manifest To Container form to manifest selected cargo lot(s) to an Active or Advised container unit. Manifesting a cargo lot to a container indicates that the cargo lot is inside the container. In this case, N4 does not create a new unit; instead, it associates the cargo lot with the existing unit ID. You can then perform other cargo related actions, such as Strip (on page 1), on this unit.
Prerequisites for manifesting cargo lot(s) to a container
A vessel visit in the Created, Inbound, Arrived, or Working phase.
A bill of lading (on page 1) (BL).
A bill of lading item (on page 1) for bulk or non-bulk cargo.
A default cargo lot.
An Active or Advised container unit that has the following attributes:
Freight Kind is not Empty
Category = BL Category
Vessel Visit = Vessel Visit of the BL
Line Op = Line Op of the BL
POD = POD of the BL
POL = POL of the BL
To manifest selected cargo lot(s) to a container:
In the Cargo Lots view (on page 1), select the default cargo lot(s) that you want to manifest to a container.
You can also use the paths specified for the Bill of Lading Inspector (on page 1), Bill of Lading form (on page 1), or the Cargo Lot Inspector (on page 1) at the top of this topic.
Select the Actions Manifest
Manifest Container option.
In the Cargo Manifest To Container form:
Enter the Unit Nbr of the container where you want to manifest the cargo lot.
If you do not want to manifest the entire quantity, edit the value displayed in the Quantity field, accordingly.
For a default cargo lot, N4 allows you to enter a value that is greater than the value displayed in the Quantity field. In this case, the default cargo lot Quantity is updated to a negative value after you successfully manifest the cargo lot.
However, the Quantity field does not display for an Identified cargo lot. For more information on identifying a cargo lot, see Identified Lots tab (on page 1).
Click Save.
If successful, N4:
Creates a new cargo lot, where:
Unit Nbr = Unit Nbr of the container specified.
Position = Position of the unit.
Lot Position = Position of the unit.
Category = Category of the unit.
Qty = Quantity specified in the Cargo Manifest To Container form.
Reduces the Quantity of the default cargo lot by the manifested Quantity above.
If the remaining Quantity for the default cargo lot is zero, the cargo lot is fully manifested and it no longer displays in the Cargo Lots view.
Does not create a new Break-Bulk unit. However, it updates the specified unit as follows:
Updates the Cargo Quantity = Existing Cargo Quantity + Quantity.
Displays the cargo lot in the Cargo Lots tab in the Unit Inspector.
