The Stuff Export Order feature allows you to perform cargo stuffing into containers against export booking as part of the Container Freight Station (CFS) activity and subsequently load the container onto a vessel. To stuff an export container, both the container and the cargo lot must be in the yard.

When you receive the cargo without any outbound routing details, you can use export booking to relocate a portion of cargo. If the outbound carrier of the Bill of Lading (BL) is GEN_CARRIER, the BL and booking outbound routing attributes are not significant. If the BL has a specific carrier visit, then the POD, Destination, and Consignee (if not null on the BL) should match the booking.

After the stuffing operation, N4:

Creates a new record in the Cargo Lots view (on page 1) with the lot type Container.
Displays both the booking and BL details in the Unit Inspector and the container details in the Pre-Advised tab of the Booking Item form.

After you stuff a container, the container must be sealed with at least one seal number in N4. You can remove the seal, if required, only through the Units view.

If you use an existing container from the booking to perform an export stuff operation, N4 auto-populates the values in the Stuff Export Order form. If you stuff against a rail order, you must select GEN_VESSEL in the Vessel Visit field in the Booking form.

In XPS, any containers matching the category (export) and yard block specified in the Yard Move filter are considered for planning. XPS creates the work instructions and updates the planned position to the unit. You are allowed to plan only sealed containers in XPS.

To stuff the cargolot against export booking or rail order:

In the Cargo Lots view (on page 1), select the cargo lot(s) in the yard with category Export.

Select Actions Stuff Export Order.
In the Stuff Export Order form, do the following:

In the Container field, enter the container number.

From the Booking Nbr/RailOrder Nbr field, select the order number.
In the Quantity field, the quantity will be auto-populated. You can update the quantity if required.
Click Save.

N4 updates the details for the selected cargo lot.

The following table lists the optional fields in the Stuff Export Order form:

Field Label	Description
Order Item	Enter the order item number.
Seal Number 1	Enter the first container seal number.
Seal Number 2	Enter the second container seal number.
Seal Number 3	Enter the third container seal number.
Seal Number 4	Enter the fourth container seal number.
Is Sealed	Select this check box if the container is sealed.

N4 displays an error message and does not allow you to perform stuffing against an export container in the following scenarios:

If the line operator of the Bills of Lading (BL) and the unit are different.
If the shipper, container, destination, Port of Load (POL), or Port of Discharge (POD) of the BL and unit are different.
If the records selected in the Cargo Lots view are a combination of quantified, identified or bulk cargo lot.
If the stuff weight exceeds the safe weight of the containers.
If the container is already sealed.
If you have defined a port restriction to restrict a specific range of containers to go to a specific port.

For bookings, all the above validations are applicable. However, for rail orders, N4 performs the other validations except the BL, unit, and routing validations.
