MODCHQCF - NATIONAL CONFIGURATION Ó UNCTAD - SITE (V1.15) 8.12 Cargo Declaration This menu option also has three sub-menu options that have a similar purpose to the Declaration configuration as described above. Option 1  –  Manifest  and  Transit  standards.  This  is  used  to  set  Manifest  controls  that  determine how the Manifest functions work within the declaration process. Option 2 – Used to configure the data fields within the Manifest. Option 3 – Used to configure the data fields within the Bill of Lading (or other transport document). Manifest Standards There are 4 switchable controls (flags) on this screen: 1. Single Bill of Lading allowed per declaration (YES/NO) 2. Total discharge of Bill of Lading at declaration assessment (YES/NO) With this flag set to ‘YES’, when you assess a Declaration that is going to write- off a Bill of Lading, the Bill will be totally written-off and no partial write-off will be allowed. If the flag is set to ‘NO’, the system will allow for the partial write-off and on assessment you can either write-off the whole Bill of Lading or a part of it. 3. Check of remaining Bill of Lading quantity at declaration registration (YES/NO). With this flag set to  ‘YES’, the system will check the remaining quantity left on the Bill of Lading when the declaration is being registered, if there is insufficient quantity  left  on  the  Bill,  the   declaration   will   not   be   registered   and   an   error message is produced. With this flag set to ‘NO’, this check is disabled when the declaration is being registered. Note that if the total discharge flag  (see  2  above) is set to   ‘YES’  and  this  flag  is  set  to    ‘YES’  as  well,  the  system  will  check  at registration that the remaining quantity is zero. 4. Bill of Lading reservation at declaration registration (YES/NO). With this flag set to ‘YES’, the system will reserve the Bill of Lading so that any other declaration that tries to register or assess with this Bill cannot do so. If this flag is set to  ‘NO’, the system will allow different declarations to use the same Bill of Lading without reservation for any one Declaration item. Manifest and transit standards The configuration of the Manifest and Bill of Lading screens are carried out by the same method as the   declaration   configuration   described   above.   The   following   is   part   of   the   ‘Bill   of   Lading   - Configuration’ screen: Fig 8.5 MODCHQCF: Functions: Cargo declaration: Bill of lading
