The impact of SOLAS on BAPLIE

VGM can be sent from Terminal operator via BAPLIE file.

That's a sample built on BAPLIE version 3.1 which is the very last stable version. This message version may be used to transmit data about VGM of containers. Usage of the according data elements is optional and needs to be agreed between communication partners. This message version provides for transmission of:

• Indication whether a specified gross mass has been verified or not
• Additional information providing evidence of verification.

The impact of SOLAS on COPARN

VGM can be sent from Line to the Terminal operator, via COPARN, before container arrives full via truck.
