Trailer Details Page (ACE and ACI eManifest)

From BorderConnect Wiki
This article is part of the BorderConnect Software User Guide
The Trailer Details page

The Trailer Details Page is the page in BorderConnect eManifest software where a user can view and edit a trailer profile. All information in the trailer profile is displayed here, along with options to add or change information.

The Trailer Details Page can be opened in the following ways:

Trailer Details Section

This section appears at the top of the page and displays the general information for the trailer profile, including trailer number, trailer type, and ACE ID.

Edit Trailer Button
Updates the general information for the trailer profile. Clicking this button brings the user to the Edit Trailer Page.
Delete Button
Deletes the trailer profile.

License Plate Section

This section allows the user to manage license plates for the trailer. Existing license plates are listed here, along with options to add, remove, or edit plates.

A license plate is required if the trailer profile will be used on ACE or ACI eManifests. For ACE eManifests, two license plates can be entered for double-drop trailers. For ACI eManifests, only one license plate should be entered. Because of this, it is recommended that users enter only one license plate per trailer profile so that the profile is compatible with both ACE and ACI.
