Why Accurate Loading Manifests Matter 💡
A loading manifest ensures every physical parcel placed on a vehicle matches your system data. CargoPal supports both cage-stored items and direct station shipments, giving you total visual control before the truck leaves the bay. ⚡
How to Load Shipments Step-by-Step 📝
Log in to your CargoPal dashboard and select Loading.
This opens the Loading Manifests view where you can see all past loading records.
To create a new one, tap the New (+) button in the bottom right corner.
On the Load Shipments form, pick the correct Source Type:
Storage Container: Choose this if the shipments were previously transferred into a warehouse cage. 📦
Station: Choose this if the shipments were booked directly and did not go through the cage transfer process. 📍
If Sourc
e Type is Storage Container: Select the specific container used during transfer. (Tap the Location Icon on the right for quick container lookup!).
If Source Type is Station: Search and select the appropriate Pickup Station and Drop-off Station.
Assign the Vehicle 🚚
