Revoking a commercial release

7. How can I withdraw the commercial release?

Within the Secure Chain, a client can always withdraw the release and pass it on to another party. It is also possible that the shipping company withdraws the entire release. In this knowledge article, we will delve into the withdrawal of the Secure Chain.

Please note! A revoked release means that all parties behind it have become redundant for the Secure Chain. The data they had access to disappears, but was visible in the period that they were part of the Secure Chain. If you revoke the release, you are solely responsible for the further processing of this release.

How can I revoke the nomination for a container?

The party that made the nomination can also revoke the nomination. They can do so for one or more containers. To do this, click on the selection box(es) for the appropriate container(s) and click the Cancel shipment button. The nomination has now been revoked for the selected container(s) and there is no longer an active haulier. You can now nominate another haulier.

Important! If you revoke the nomination of a subcontractor, it is important to revoke the transport order first to avoid unnecessary charges.

I see that I am no longer the nominated haulier for a container; how is this possible?

Your customer has revoked your nomination and chosen another haulier for the container(s). You can tell that this is the case because the container is visible in the Handlings dashboard but is no longer visible in Shipments.

If a transport order exists in your own TMS but there is no registration in the PCS, it is no longer valid.

The customer should always inform the haulier of the cancellation or removal of a container in order to avoid a cargo mismatch, because the haulier may have already initiated transport to collect the container.

I see that the validity of the commercial release has expired, now what?

Contact the carrier, or your client, for a new commercial release or renewal. The client can also see in his own overview that the commercial release is no longer active or has been given a red status.

Your chain may have already been fully prepared, and this chain is still active at this point. Only without the commercial release your inland operator cannot remove the container. If the carrier resend the commercial exemption, this automatically restores your already prepared chain and your inland operator can submit the pre-notification.

How can I revoke an nomination?

Any party within the chain can revoke the role of the next party within the chain.

NB! The rest of the chain then becomes superfluous because you have broken off the chain, you are then the only party within the chain who can reactivate the chain.

Go to the -button on the container for which you want to revoke the nomination and click on 'Nominate inland operator'.

You can then click on the 'Withdraw carrier' button at the top right.

The chain has been broken and the nomination has been withdrawn. You can now freely nominate another carrier.

I see that I am no longer assigned for my B/L; how is this possible?

Revoked release

Just as you can revoke the rights of the next party in the chain, your principal in the chain can also revoke this for you as a release-to-party, director or inland operator.

For example, a carrier can withdraw the entire commercial release for the full chain. At that point, the container will no longer be available for collection until the commercial release has been re-issued again.

Your chain may have already been fully prepared, and this chain is still active at this point. Only without the commercial release your inland operator cannot remove the container. If the carrier re-issues the commercial release, this automatically restores your prepared chain and your inland operator can submit the pre-notification.

The same effect can also arise if the validity of your commercial release has expired. Although this is not yet the case at this stage of the Secure Chain, this may change in the future.

Contact your carrier for a new commercial exemption.

Revoked authorization or nomination

Please contact your client if you are no longer authorized or nominated for this cargo.

Contact your shipping company for a new commercial release or to renew the commercial release.

If your chain was already fully prepared, it will still be active. But without the commercial release, your haulier cannot unload the container. If the shipping company resends the commercial release, this automatically restores the chain you have prepared and your haulier can submit the prenotification.
