Manifest Vehicle Overview
The SapphireOne Manifest Vehicle function in the Inventory Manager menu is used to set up the different modes of transport to be assigned to a Manifest. The mode of transport is a critical component of creating a Manifest, and the Manifest Vehicle Inquiry screen is used to set up the vehicle within SapphireOne. The vehicle can includes any modes of transport, such as ships, aircraft, trucks, vans, private motor vehicles, utilities, train and even carriages on a train.
Linking a Vehicle to a Manifest Inquiry
The records created in the Manifest Vehicle screen are directly linked to the Manifest function, which is the second item in the Inventory Manager menu. Users can set up their Vehicle within the Manifest Vehicle Inquiry screen here, and then link it to a Manifest created from the Manifest Inquiry screen.
To initially enter in Manifest Vehicle Inquiry entry, the user has to enter the ID into the Vehicle data entry field in the Manifest area of a Manifest Inquiry. Once the selected ID is entered the user may then click on the data field heading Vehicle. SapphireOne will then try to log into the appropriate web page for the company as entered in the Manifest Vehicle Inquiry record.
