You normally set your AutoStow strategies during the initial installation and testing of the AutoStow Option, but you can modify or create new strategies at any time. You can save a strategy for any vessel grouping, such as vessel class. You can also export and import saved strategies.
When you apply a strategy to any vessel, XPS saves the strategy by vessel code. If the vessel visit is in the future, it defaults to the AutoStow strategy of the previous vessel visit.
Typically, a vessel planner sets AutoStow strategies, sometimes assisted by a N4 administrator.
Setting AutoStow strategies involves:
Understanding AutoStow strategies (on page 1)
Reviewing the AutoStow Strategy set (on page 1)
Configuring and assigning AutoStow strategies (on page 1)
Planning a vessel with AutoStow (on page 1) and reviewing AutoStow results (on page 1)
Saving, exporting, and importing AutoStow strategies (on page 1)
When creating and refining AutoStow Strategy sets, it is helpful to work with AutoStow Solution Explorer (on page 1).
