Transfer Cargo

A cargo transfer is a type of transshipment where a cargo is transported on two voyages. The cargo is transported on the first voyage to an intermediate port and then further transported on a second voyage to its final port.

You start with a cargo with a load and discharge port which represents the first part of the cargoes journey (on the first voyage). From a system perspective, the action "transfer" creates a new cargo for the second part of the journey (on the second voyage).

The original cargo will receive cargo type "Has Transfer", and the new cargo will receive cargo type "Transfer."

The following fields are synchronised:

• cargo quantity and measurement unit

• commodity

• discharge rate + terms of has transfer cargo = load rate + terms of transfer cargo

Transfer cargoes are listed at the bottom of the cargo drawer under "Relets and Transshipments".
