This specification provides the definition of the Container discharge/loading order message (COPRAR) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport.
A message to order to the container terminal that the containers specified have to be discharged from a seagoing vessel or have to be loaded into a seagoing vessel.
This message is part of a total set of container-related messages. These messages serve to facilitate the intermodal handling of containers by streamlining the information exchange. The business scenario for the container messages is clarified in a separate document, called: 'Guide to the scenario of EDIFACT container messages'.
The Container discharge/loading order message may be used for both national and international trade. It is based on universal commercial practice and is not dependent on the type of business or industry.
Business area: Loading and discharging of containers/equipment
Sending functions include: Ship's agent, Liner agent
Receiving functions include: Container terminal, Stevedore
In the context of the 'Guide to the scenario of EDIFACT container messages' (as referred to at the start of section 1) the following guidelines, rules and functionality apply to this Container discharge/loading order message:
The ordering customer agent, coded is needed to supplement the unique identification only in the following situation: the agent acts on behalf of several ordering customers issuing the same range of reference numbers for each customer. E.g., the ship's agent acts on behalf of several shipping lines issuing for each shipping line the same range of numbers.
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 1.
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 2.
This section should be read in conjunction with the Branching Diagram and the Segment Table which indicate mandatory, conditional and repeating requirements.
