Description: The purpose of this setting is to reduce the chance of burying the yard containers under the vessel discharge containers thereby avoiding unnecessary rehandles and delay in delivering the containers.
This setting determines the dwell days threshold of the container in the RTG and forklift blocks so that the vessel discharge is planned on top of the container within the configured dwell time threshold value. This prevents the decking of the discharge container over a yard container to be delivered so that the container delivery happens on time.
For example, if you configure the dwell day threshold value as 3 in OPTDWL, you can plan a discharge container on top of a container in the RTG and forklift blocks having a dwell time within 3 days. However, if the vessel discharge container is planned on top of a container having dwell time exceeding 3 days, then Expert Decking applies the penalty OPTDWP.
For information about how to deck containers based on dwell time, see Deck vessel discharge containers based on dwell time.
