  • Doc Entry Office and Doc Issuing Office must not have been deleted.

  • For the first leg of Route From Location (LP) must be same as the Load Port (PR). Similarly, for the last leg of Route To Location (DP) must be same as the Discharge Port (PD).

  • Location set as From Location (LP) or To Location (DP) must not be Inactive and not deleted from the selected voyage (if any).

  • ATA/ETA value for the Arrives on Port should be later than the ATD/ETD of the Departs on Port.

  • From Location (LP) and To Location (DP) has not been deleted from the selected voyage.

FMC Details-related Checks:

Before associating the FMC details, PCC.NET checks the following conditions and displays relevant warning messages requiring your acceptance if any of the following fails. PCC.NET associate the FMC document with the current Booking only after you accept the warning.

  • If Departs On (ETD) of the first port of Booking is before or on the Effective Date of FMC Filing, PCC.NET displays a warning that associated FMC file is not yet effective for the first port ETD.

  • If Departs On (ETD) of the first port of Booking is after or on the Expiry Date of FMC Filing, PCC.NET displays a warning that the associated FMC file has expired for the first port ETD.

  • If the day count between Expiry Date of FMC Filing and Departs On (ETD) of the first port of Booking is within 10 days, PCC.NET displays a warning that expiry date of FMC Filing is getting close.

The first port ETD is Departs On (ETD) of first leg sequence of Route of the Booking. This first port ETD is shown in the FMC Details dialog box as the Sail Date.
