Basic data
B/L address fields
The addresses from the order header can be accepted into the B/L addresses by means of codes.
Please use the internal description A1-A9 for the transmission of the addresses from the order header into the B/L.
These are all addresses that you can enter on the sub tabs Header data and Addresses in the order.
Since your basic data contain an address template for the B/L, certain addresses are automatically pre-assigned in the order header on your B/L addresses tab.
This is the preallocation that is most commonly used in your program. Modifications are possible at any time during the processing.
Modifications of the addresses within the B/L tab → Header data do not automatically change the addresses in Order → Header data.
This enables the entry of 4 B/L addresses in addition to the 9 order addresses.
B/L synchronization
The B/L synchronization provides the option of replacing the data in the B/L instructions with order data and of updating modifications concerning the addresses, locations and the departure date at all times.
→ This setting can be made in the basic data and applies to the entire company. This synchronization mainly refers to the Adressen and Orte.
The 4 addresses in the B/L instructions are usually pre-assigned with those from the Order tab – as per preallocation in the basic data.
When changing addresses in the order data, the B/L data are not updated without synchronization.
If the synchronization is active, addresses, locations and departure date in the B/Ls are updated at all times.
B/L Address description
Every address has an address description - even on the B/L tab.
The descriptions of the address fields displayed in this mask (e.g. shipper, consignee, …) are recorded in the basic data.
These settings are made by the system administrator in advance upon entry of the basic data and forms in the Formulargenerator.
The basic data also contain settings to determine which addresses and which descriptions will be accepted into every single Reederei-B/L and in the House/Master.

The number of lines and characters defined for addresses in the form generator will be printed in the B/L.
You can either select an address as is common in CargoSoft or or manually fill the field.
6 lines with 35 characters each are available. This is also the maximum amount of lines and characters that can be transmitted to Dakosy.
The dotted line indicates the maximum length of a line that can be sent upon B/L transmission to Dakosy.
Characters that exceed 35 characters are also highlighted in red.
→ Any additional characters entered will be marked in red and will not be sent.
