Vessel Shift

Operations Vessel Vessel Visits Vessel Visits view Vessel Shift

For multi facility operations, the Vessel Shift option allows you to perform the following actions:

Prerequisites

When you perform any of the above actions, N4 determines how it must propagate data to upstream / downstream facilities based on the value of the setting ARGOVESSEL_INVENTORY_VISIBILITY_PORTWIDE001 (MULTI_FACILITY_VESSEL_VISIBILITY). When this setting is set to PLAN_SAVE, if there is a conflict in plan, N4 updates the Arrival Position of the unit(s) to FIX_POS in the downstream facility to enable planners to take the required decision and proceed with operations

Updating the arrival position to FIX_POS

When both facilities create a SHOB plan for the same container, the last known position and arrival position of the unit in the downstream facility display the planned position as in the upstream facility. When the downstream facility has a SHOB plan and the upstream facility does a discharge plan/move (non-restow), then the Arrival Position of the unit in the downstream facility is updated to FIX_POS.  The Arrival Position is not updated to FIX_POS when you perform a Shift visit earlier in complex position action and if the unit facility visit has a single discharge plan.
