Business Context and Use

The Check In Transportation Unit Appointment (synchronous) inbound operation is a request to Site Logistics Processing to activate the transportation unit appointment for processing in the yard.

You can use this operation to register the arrival of a transportation unit at the checkpoint of the yard. The status of the transportation unit appointment becomes "active" and is ready for further processing, such as loading or unloading.

Example

A transportation unit arrives at the checkpoint of the yard and the gate keeper finds the related transportation unit appointment. If everything is fine with the transportation unit, the gate keeper allows the transportation unit to check in.
