# 🔀 Transshipment Transshipment jobs are used to manage **shipments that pass through an intermediate port or airport before reaching their final destination**. This module allows you to record and track multiple legs of a journey under a single job, ensuring proper routing, partner management, and cost allocation. 📌 *For shared functions (Job Status Flow, Accounting workflows, Job Estimations), refer to the General Jobs section.* --- # Transshipment list actions The actions available depend on your company configuration and permissions. * **Import Notes** shows HBL-level import notes directly in the Transshipment List. * **Assign Transshipment** supports eligible assignments between shipment types, including Ocean to Air and Air to Ocean. Select the HBL and choose an eligible Master Job from the picker. * **Assign Via Port** can be applied to one or more selected HBLs. Review **Via Port**, **ETA**, and **ETD** in the dialog before submitting the assignment. * For **2–20 HBLs**, **Transfer** opens the bulk workflow: choose the transfer type, assign a destination for each HBL, then review the batch. The batch is applied atomically: all transfers succeed or none are applied. Review the result before retrying a failed batch. # Tabs in Transshipment ## Basic Info Capture the overall shipment details, including both origin and final destination. **Fields include:** * Job Type (Transshipment – Air or Ocean) * Master Number (MBL/MAWB) * Routing details * Origin (POL or Airport of Departure) * Transshipment Port/Airport(s) * Final Destination (POD or Airport of Arrival) * ETD/ETA for each leg * Carrier/Flight/Vessel information for each leg * Partners (Shipper, Consignee, Overseas Agent, Carrier) ![Transshipment - Basic Info](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/b261407c-2c06-4ad7-8460-02f0e417d69b/c017d2ed-b046-476d-a3fe-606ada8315b8/image.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20261010%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20261010T003000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=a2e394715864a8a00c756762dd5e8a3c97f5c09014995128ddcd2bbd556bb5ee&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =3836x2936") --- ## Routing Legs This tab manages the **multi-leg routing** of a transshipment job. **Features include:** * Add one or more transit ports/airports * Record carrier/flight/vessel per leg * ETD/ETA for each leg * Capture handover or switch details (e.g., feeder vessel → mother vessel) ![Transshipment - Routing Leg](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/b261407c-2c06-4ad7-8460-02f0e417d69b/d17cd4f3-4c0b-4006-964d-f82b8ed8df92/image.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20261010%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20261010T003000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=b92d7fe9494be0596ec86023aeeb85ad2a06d91db055357cb5ec84f7dff33556&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =3836x1966") --- ## Job Estimations Estimate charges and costs for transshipment handling. * **Sales Charges** – bill customer for the full route, including transshipment handling * **Vendor Costs** – record feeder freight, handling charges, and main leg freight separately * **Currency & Exchange Rate** – editable per leg if needed ![Transshipment - Job Estimation](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/b261407c-2c06-4ad7-8460-02f0e417d69b/154fa465-ba6e-492e-b034-91ee62778356/image.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20261010%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20261010T003000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=03cbbd2d72d372c4280e08f7b1250f67182d8a946e0f15ab02ceb2e1a90a2c96&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =3836x5194") --- ## Accounting Invoicing and vendor billing can be split between the legs. * **Customer Invoice:** Covers total through-freight * **Vendor Bills:** Carrier/co-loader costs split by leg (feeder, main, onward leg) * **Profitability:** Consolidated at job level ![Transshipment - Accounting](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/b261407c-2c06-4ad7-8460-02f0e417d69b/0db5d623-41f8-498a-a6b5-b0c2e9c75e06/image.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20261010%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20261010T003000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=58181e979583a18c1d8717a338879904ded0b9f19032cf4ce57f4294f7d59177&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =3836x2478") --- # Key Differences from Other Job Types * **Multi-leg Routing:** Unlike Ocean/Air import/export jobs, you can capture one or more transshipment legs in a structured tab. * **Cost Breakdown:** Vendor costs can be separated per leg, giving visibility on feeder vs main vessel/flight charges. * **Operational Transparency:** Useful for shipments passing through hubs (e.g., Singapore, Dubai, Hong Kong) en route to final destinations. ![Transshipment - Multi-leg Cost Breakdown in Job Estimation](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/b261407c-2c06-4ad7-8460-02f0e417d69b/48fa58dd-85d1-4783-865f-9d3fc1f63d50/image.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20261010%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20261010T003000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=5e66217f54f5a27b546a9dec29054e2dccd46ce6e4069e54782b3903f377ceca&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =3836x5194") --- # When to Use Transshipment * For shipments that require an intermediate stop before reaching final destination. * Common in **hub-and-spoke logistics networks**, where feeder services connect to a main leg. * For both **Ocean (feeder + mother vessel)** and **Air (via hub airport)** shipments. --- Documentation owner: Fr8Labs Customer Success.
