You can create a preliminary crane plan by assigning work queues to crane work shifts. To do this, you must already have completed the discharge plan, preplan or load plan, and created crane work shifts (on page 1).
Assigning work queues to crane work shifts involves these tasks:
Automatically sequencing work queues (on page 1)
Manually sequencing work queues (on page 1)
Unassigning work queues (on page 1)
If your plan has linked work shifts (on page 1), it is better to link work shifts before assigning work queues to each shift. If you used the Shift Automation feature, XPS automatically links work shifts that use the same crane
After assigning the work queues to create the rough crane plan, you can develop (on page 1) and refine it.
For more information on discharge, preplan, and load plans, see the manual Navis N4: Vessel Administrator and User Guide.
