Ocean Booking View

Ocean booking view is applicable for shipments created with BOOKING_NUMBER or BILL_OF_LADING. BILL_OF_LADING or BOOKING_NUMBER is a unique identifier given to you by the Ocean carrier. It often contains multiple containers (each with their own Container ID) allowing you to track multiple containers with a single identifier.

The Booking view provides a comprehensive overview of all containers associated with a specific BOOKING_NUMBER or BILL_OF_LADING. It provides the following capabilities:

  • Display all containers associated with a BOOKING_NUMBER or BILL_OF_LADING.
  • Show the latest status of each container.
  • Provide a grouped view of containers based on exceptions, latest ocean milestones, and route.

Ocean Booking List View

Conditional Display

The list view appears only when:

  • Primary Identifier is set to BOOKING_NUMBER or BILL_OF_LADING
  • Mode is set to ocean
    This ensures non-ocean bookings are excluded.

Mode Filter Dependency

The Mode filter relies on the transportationMode field within the shipment’s route. Shipments without route info or without ocean mode are not shown.

  • The booking view is evaluated only if the primary identifier of the shipment is either BOOKING_NUMBER or BILL_OF_LADING and Shipment has related container shipments.
  • The stops are derived from the related container shipment’s route and are unique based on stop type and port locode.
  • Grouping of container is done based on the latest event which has an actual timestamp and some ocean milestones.
  • If there is no relevant event and no route information, containers are aggregated under pending state.
  • If there is no relevant event but route information exists, containers are aggregated under scheduled state.

The table below describes the important fields of the Ocean Booking View. All this information is displayed as per the selected grouped containers.
