What the video shows

  1. Every consignment starts here. The labels in bold identify the mandatory data.
  2. If mandatory data is missing, the application states exactly what is required.
  3. Select the consignment type and the mode of transport. The application then asks only for the data that road transport requires.
  4. Shippers, consignees and carriers are defined once and then selected from the address book.
  5. Enter the vehicle registration and any other data that the transport document has to show.
  6. A new consignee can also be created without leaving the consignment.
  7. Search the complete catalogue of dangerous goods by UN number or by name.
  8. Define the packaging. The application calculates the net quantity per package.
  9. An N.O.S. entry requires the technical name, and the application does not accept the goods without it.
  10. Every rejection states the reason: 40 L per inner packaging exceeds the 30 L allowed by Packing Instruction P001.
  11. With the quantity corrected, the packing instruction is selected automatically.
  12. 10 L per inner packaging complies with Packing Instruction P001, so the goods are added to the consignment.
  13. Mixed packing: several dangerous goods can travel in the same outer packaging.
  14. Add each dangerous good with its inner packaging.
  15. Each addition is checked against its packing instruction and the gross weight of the package.
  16. Indicate the number of packages and add the mixed packing to the consignment.
  17. The application calculates the 1.1.3.6 exemption of the ADR and the gross weight as the goods are added.
  18. Select the documents to issue and finish the consignment.
  19. The ADR transport document is issued automatically from the data of the consignment.
  20. The description of the goods, the transport category and the quantities are completed by the application.
  21. The shipping remarks add the totals by transport category and the calculation of the 1.1.3.6 exemption.
  22. The package marking shows the proper shipping name, UN number, net quantity, shipper and consignee.
  23. The checklist lists the marks and labels of each package and the checks to make before loading.
