COPARN

Formal Definition: The message contains an order to release, to make available, to accept, to call down containers or to announce the impending arrival of containers.

Some samples of message usage:

• Requesting or authorising acceptance of an empty container;
• Requesting or authorising acceptance of a full container;
• Releasing an empty container for packing;
  
• Requesting or authorising an on/off hire transaction.

In any case, COPARN message will be 'answered' by a CODECO message confirming that the equipment movement or status change has been taken place.

Here below a very basic COPARN sample used to release an empty container expected to be loaded on vessel:

COPRAR, loading empty container(s) based on type

Here below you can find a sample of a COPRAR used to load 5 empty containers with the same characteristics (i.e. 20/DV/8'6). Note the usage of EQN segment (Nr. of units) in EQD segment group.

Replacing the previous COPRAR

Let's suppose that something in the previous COPRAR sample has to be amended (i.e. the reefer temperature set point). Here below the updated COPRAR:

The following requirements are needed:

• c506.1153=ACW on H.RFF;
• c506.1154 = Document message number of the previous message to replace (BGM 1004) on H.RFF.

COPRAR: adding a stowage instruction

Use of DGS segment within EQD group (ITIGG recommendation JM4/273)

Some other remarks about IMDG infos and DGS segment.

Function of the segment: The DGS segment at this level is used to specify any dangerous goods details for the transport equipment identified in the precedent EQD segment.

Segment usage: The use of the DGS segment within this group is dependant. If the cargo within the transport equipment has hazardous characteristics then its use is required otherwise is not used. At this level the segment can also be used to identify any hazardous cargo residues which may remain in the container after unpacking.
