You can use the Cargo Manifest to Vessel form to manifest selected cargo lot(s) to a vessel visit. Manifesting a cargo lot to a vessel visit indicates that the cargo lot is on board the vessel. In this case, N4 creates a new Break-bulk unit with the position on board the vessel. However, if there is already an existing cargo lot at the target position, N4 does not create a new unit, it only adds the Quantity to the existing cargo lot and unit. You can then perform other cargo related actions on the unit, such as unload it from the vessel (on page 1).
Prerequisites for manifesting cargo lot(s) to a vessel
A vessel visit in the Created, Inbound, Arrived, or Working phase.
A bill of lading (on page 1).
A bill of lading item (on page 1) for bulk or non-bulk cargo.
A default cargo lot.
To manifest selected cargo lot(s) to a vessel:
In the Cargo Lots view (on page 1), select the default cargo lot(s) that you want to manifest to a vessel.
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 Vessel option.
In the Cargo Manifest To Vessel form:
From the Vessel Visit Id field, select the vessel visit to which you want to manifest the cargo lot.
In the Vessel Slot field, enter the position on the vessel where you want to manifest the cargo lot. You can enter a maximum of 16 characters.
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:
Position = Position on the vessel.
Qty = Quantity specified in the Cargo Manifest To Vessel 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.
Creates a new Break-Bulk unit in the Units view and:
Sets the Cargo Quantity = Quantity specified in the Cargo Manifest To Vessel form.
Sets the Position = Position on the vessel.
Displays the cargo lot in the Cargo Lots tab in the Unit Inspector.
Displays the cargo lots in the Cargo Lots tab in the Vessel Inspector.
