How to Copy Files Between Facilities

Use this guide to copy a BAPLIE file from one facility to another facility in the same organization. This is useful when more than one facility needs the same vessel data.

Before you start: you must be a member of both facilities. Both facilities must belong to the same organization. The copy function is only for organization accounts with more than one facility.

Steps

1. Open the file you want to copy, or find it in your file list.
2. Click the copy icon in the file actions menu.
3. In the window that opens, choose the target facility from the drop-down list. The list shows only facilities in your organization.
4. Choose if you want to copy tags with the file:
   • Yes: all tags of the file are copied to the new facility, with their colors.
   • No: only the file data is copied. No tags are copied.
5. Click Confirm.

The copied file shows in the target facility. Its file name has a timestamp at the end, so you can tell it from the original.

What the system copies

• All the BAPLIE file data: all container, bay and cargo information.
• The file tags, only if you chose Yes in step 4.
