What are Notifications?
PortConnect can send email notifications when a range of events/changes occur against containers. Notification types include:
...
Users can send multiple Customer References per container. This is an unlimited character field and designed to support container visit identifiers.
The Customer Reference will be included in the Notification (both in the email body and XML file attached).
To include this in the ROI, each Customer Reference needs to be set for each container segment.
If you submit a new ROI it will overwrite the existing ROI including the Customer Reference.
If you have already received Notifications against the first ROI you would receive them again against the new ROI with the new Customer Reference included in the Notification.
If you submit an ROI with the same Customer Reference as the previous ROI, it will not send new Notifications.

Partner Port and Supply Chain Codes
To receive Notifications for both the terminal and inland port, the PartnerPortCode needs to be specified:
PartnerPortCode | Notifications sent for Sea port and Inland Port |
---|---|
NZTRG | NZTRG - Port of Tauranga (Sulphur Point) |
NZAKL | NZAKL - Ports of Auckland |
NZTIU | NZTIU - Timaru Container Terminal |
The correct PartnerPortCode and SupplyChainCode must be sent in the ROI message.
E.g. Container ABCD1234567 is an Import at NZTRG.
An ROI is received with SupplyChainCode 'E' (Export) and PartnerPortCode ‘NZAKL’.
This will result in the ROI being queued but no notification will be sent unless anExport version of this container moves through NZAKL.
Once a ROI message is received, PortConnect attempts to identify the container based on the notified Supply Chain and Port codes.
If PortConnect cannot find a current active container of the notified supply chain type and Port then the ROI request will be stored for 30 days to wait for a version of the requested container that matches the supplied details.E.g. Container ABCD1234567 is an Import at NZTRG. An ROI is received with supply chain Export and port NZAKL. This will result in the ROI being queued but no notification will be sent unless an export version of this container moves through NZAKL.
If a container cannot be identified then the XML message will display an error and say the ROI is in the Queue waiting.
