Delivery Orders view
Prerequisites
To access the Delivery Orders view, you need to assign the Delivery Order - View privilege to your user role.
A delivery order is a group of one or multiple bill of lading (BL) items that represent cargo to be picked up by trucks or be placed on railcars for departure from the terminal for the same consignee. The BL items included in a delivery order may be associated with the same or different bills of lading. Usually, the consignee for a shipment creates or provides the delivery order. You can use a delivery order to manage cargo lot pickup by a truck or several trucks arriving at the terminal.
If you use delivery orders for Deliver Break-Bulk (DB) gate transactions, N4 updates the Order Status when the truck visit and the associated gate transaction are completed. However, if the delivery order is created without cargo lot details, the Order Status remains New. N4 updates the Order Status based on the Cargo Delivery Order Item field (on page 1). Therefore, in your gate configuration, you must include the Cargo Delivery Order Item field for the Deliver Break-Bulk (DB) gate transaction at the ingate stage.
You can use the Deliver Orders view to add, edit, and delete delivery orders. In addition, you can use the Actions Cancel Delivery Order (on page 1) option to cancel the selected delivery order. If you select multiple records in the list view, N4 disables this action.
