Shipments
Ocean Freight
The shipments list scoped to ocean — the Ocean Shipments view, MBL and HBL references, containers, and ocean-specific tracking.
Shipments → Ocean Freight opens the shipments list scoped to ocean. The page becomes Ocean Shipments ("Showing ocean freight shipments.") with the scoped total next to the title and a View All button back to the unfiltered list.
What the mode scope changes
- Only ocean moves are listed, and the summary cards compute over ocean only.
- New Shipment starts the form with mode Ocean preselected.
- The Mode picker disappears from the advanced filter modal — the page is already scoped.
- Everything else — toolbar, direction tabs, views, bulk bar, columns — matches All Shipments.
Ocean-specific fields
- The MAWB / MBL column (its header never changes) shows the MBL — the Master Bill of Lading. A house's own reference is its HBL; in Cards view the number under the shipment number is the HBL (or the MBL for a master).
- The detail's identifier strip shows MBL/HBL; the Legs tab carries the containers, and the Tracking tab shows container events for ocean moves.
- An MBL is required for an ocean master, an HBL for each house — see consolidating houses under a master.
- Ocean imports to the US need an ISF filing — follow Complete an ISF for an ocean import.
Even at sea, quotes and charges can use chargeable weight concepts alongside CBM — see Master, house & chargeable weight.
