Manage a voyage

Completed

When you've created a voyage, whether from a purchase order or from the All voyages page, you can add containers and folios to the voyage by using the Voyage editor.

Voyage editor

The Voyage editor allows you to add or remove purchase lines for a voyage. Additionally, you can create new containers and modify details of the voyage. You can open Voyage editor from the Action Pane on a voyage, or the Voyage editor page will display when you create a new voyage from a purchase order.

Follow these steps to add a purchase order and purchase order lines to a voyage by using the Voyage editor:

  1. With a voyage open, select Voyage editor on the Action Pane.

  2. On this page, you can add filters to display purchase orders to link to the voyage, such as vendor, mode of delivery, or warehouse.

  3. In the Setup name dropdown list, select Today.

    Orders and order lines will display that have an Expected date of today's date.

    Note

    You can update the quantity of an item in the lines that you select. For example, if not all items for a purchase order line have been produced by the vendor in time for the shipment, you might need to update the purchase order line to only include the count of completed items that will be part of the voyage. If you change the quantity of an item on this page, Dynamics 365 will automatically split the line on the purchase order.

  4. Select one or multiple records to attach to the voyage, and then select Add to staging list in the Lines to select FastTab.

  5. Select View staging list to view the records that were added.

  6. In the Add staging list to shipping container page, select Add to new shipping container.

  7. In the Create a shipping container dialog, specify the Shipping container (you can enter this information by using free text, or you can select the container from the dropdown menu, Journey template, and ship date).

    Important

    The shipping container type field and the selection that you made will determine the capacity, volume, and weight of the container.

  8. Select OK and then close the Add staging list to shipping container page.

Your voyage will now have voyage lines added for the container.
