You can upload and/or download an Excel file in Cargo Controller Import. It is largely the same as following new B/Ls via an Excel upload, but you need to provide more information.
Uploading via an Excel file
To upload, follow these steps:
You can enter a maximum of 500 equipment and the corresponding B/Ls at once using an Excel file.
- Select Add.
-
In the Cargo section, you will find the Upload file button at the bottom, after which a screen follows with a link to an Excel template.
-
Fill in the Excel template with the required details (B/L number, equipment number and optionally your own reference) and save the file.
-
Select Upload file and choose the Excel file you just saved. Then click the blue Upload button.
- You will receive a confirmation of all successfully and unsuccessfully added equipment and associated B/Ls. The following 3 options may occur:
- The successfully added B/Ls are automatically added to Cargo Controller Import and marked as favourite.
- The unsuccessfully added B/Ls do not meet the criteria. An explanation for rejection is provided. You can now correct or delete the details manually.
- After manually correcting or deleting the details, select Save. The corrected B/L details will then still be added to Cargo Controller Import.
You have now controlled the Secure Chain in bulk.
Downloading B/L information
After you receive updates on this data, you can also download a selection and import it into your own systems. Which information is included in the download depends on the active filters. Follow these steps:
- Use the filters to choose which B/Ls should be included in the download.
- Click the checkbox at the top of the overview screen to select all B/Ls at once for download. Or select the desired B/Ls at B/L level by ticking the checkbox per B/L.
- When you select at least 1 B/L, additional action buttons appear at the top of the overview screen. On the left, you will see the Download button.
- You will receive a confirmation via a pop-up message of the number of B/Ls selected for download and you can confirm the download. All data will be included in a CSV file.
