Overview
The Import Unit process allows users to track and manage incoming vehicle units from vessel efficiently. The process integrates various systems, including SSR, Zodiac and TANCIS. Through this integration, the user can search, manage, and update unit information from the initial import stage until the vehicle is gated out of the terminal.
General Cargo Process
The process involves the ICD Operator. The user logs into the system, and searches for the Unit using Vessel name / Bill of Lading details from zodiac and saves the unit detail in CCS. User can also be able to submit the Driver nomination request with the TANCIS system post which the unit details status gets updated with the necessary statuses. The truck visit id details are then made available and also the Gatepass and VIR from zodiac so that the unit will be transported out of the terminal.
