License Plate Section

This section allows the user to manage the license plates for the trailer. Currently entered license plates will be listed here, along with options to add, remove or edit.

A license plate is required if the Trailer Profile will be used on ACE or ACI eManifests. For ACE eManifests it is possible to enter two license plates (for double-drop trailers), but for ACI eManifests only one license plate should be entered.
