# Process transport orders

The transport order combines one or more containers to transport from a pick-up address to a delivery address. Transport orders can be inbound or outbound and contain all information relevant to the transport. The transport order is the basis for transactions involving transport and their registration.

The following FastTabs are available on a transport order:

| FastTab | Description |
| --- | --- |
| General | Contains general information about the transport order: status information, shipping agents, and service code. |
| Lines | Most fields are filled automatically when a container is linked, based on the values from the container types. The **Line** action has two options: **Container Details**: shows the actual content of the container. **Unlink Container**: disconnects the selected container from the transport order. |
| Pickup | Contains all relevant pickup information such as pickup address and contact information. |
| Delivery | Contains all relevant delivery information such as delivery address and contact information. |
| Shipping | Based on the transport order detail lines. Contains pickup/delivery instructions as well as date and time information. |
| Details | Contains mainly calculated fields: total containers, weight, volume, and loading length. The next group of fields are finance-related and displayed on the FastTab only. There is currently no connection with the financial part of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. |
