A timestamp will appear when you have responded to the requested volume for a week.

  • To accept the volume for a week, just click Save.

  • To reject all volume, click Reject Entire Voyage, a pop-up window will appear and you will need to enter a comment.

  • To accept and reject some volume, enter the number of FEUs you want to reject and enter a comment, then click Save.

  • If you need to edit a response, click Edit or click Restart. You can only click Restart when your original response included rejected volume.

 

Note:  If there is volume in No Response status at the end of the plan week (12 AM GMT on Sunday), it will automatically change to Rejected or Accepted, depending on your customer's preference.

 

Tip: The system will automatically adjust the number of FEUs you enter to match the requested amount. For example, for 3.56 FEUs, you can enter 4 and the system will adjust to 3.56 FEUs.
