The Truck Load button enables you to load cargo lots from a yard location onto a truck or from a vessel directly onto an external truck and proceed the truck to the next gate stage. At this stage, N4 assumes that the truck has already passed the ingate stage of a Deliver Break-Bulk (DB) gate transaction and has entered the yard to pick up cargo approved by a gate clerk. You cannot enter cargo lot Quantity in the Truck Load form. You must use the Validate Load form (on page 1) to enter the cargo lot Quantity.
Direct handling of bulk cargo is available only for vessel to truck loads.
Pre-requisites for loading cargo on a truck:
Active Truck Visit for the specified Truck License Number.
Truck Visit is associated with a valid Bill of Lading (BL) through a Deliver Break-Bulk (DB) gate transaction.
Cargo lot is in the yard or on the vessel.
The Is I/B to O/B Move Direct option is selected in the gate form for a direct truck load.
