Adding Equipment To a BOL Back

This page is accessed via Brokerage and Forwarding > Booking > BOL Back. Then click New Actual Equipment from the Header tab.

Equipment represents any mode or method of storage or transport used for the movement of a shipment from one location to another. Accurate equipment information is critical to the shipment planning process, and equipment IDs are used to create equipment types that are used in capacity management.

Information on this screen defaults in from the equipment on the associated shipment only when the invoice was generated from an Oracle Transportation Management shipment, or the invoice has been matched to a shipment.

1. Select the Shipment Equipment from the drop-down list. The shipment equipment is a concatenation of the shipping equipment ID, equipment group ID, and equipment number.
2. Enter the Equipment Initial. This is a prefix or alphanumeric combination associated with the carrier SCAC code for the equipment. The Equipment Number is a sequential number that must be entered to associate the number with the equipment initial.
3. Equipment Initial/Number is the concatenation of the Equipment Initial and Equipment Number fields.

Seal Number

1. Enter the seal number in the Seal Number field with which the equipment is associated for the order.
2. Enter the seal sequence in the Seal Sequence field.
3. Click Save for each seal number added.
