Adding planned moves

In this example, you have 20’ containers in two bays on the same hatch that will be discharged in pairs (sometimes called paired 20’s).

For planning information, see Discharging the Vessel or Loading the Vessel (on page 1).

To add planned moves:

  1. Plan the discharge of the two bays so that the sequence is the same.

XPS automatically records the work instructions in the default discharge work queues for each bay section (here titled WQ 15A Disch and WQ 17A Disch).

For information on displaying work queues, see Opening work queues from the vessel profile.

  1. In one work queue window, select all containers.

  2. In the other work queue window, click Add.

The work instructions are added to the target work queue, but they maintain their original sequence numbers to indicate the proper sequence and pairing.

You can delete empty work queues in the Maintain Queues window.
