DepoViz Knowledge Base

This is the operator's guide to DepoViz — the container depot management platform. It's organized in the order a new depot actually needs to work through things: set up the depot's configuration first, link your commercial relationships (shipping lines and customers) next, then run daily operations (gate, yard, containers), work orders, and billing.

If you're new here, start with Logging in & roles to understand what you'll see once you sign in, then How features connect for a map of what has to exist before what — DepoViz enforces real prerequisites (for example, you can't create a Gate Pass until a shipping line, an authorized customer, and at least one configured yard zone all exist), and that page lays out every one of those chains in one place.

Sections

  • Depot Setup — the one-time configuration every depot needs before it can run: company details, yard zones, charge codes, tariffs, and more.
  • Commerce — shipping lines, customers, and the authorization link between them that gate operations depends on.
  • Daily Operations — gate in/out, yard management, and the container registry.
  • Work Orders & Repair — repairs, conversions, and estimates.
  • Billing & Invoicing — how charges are calculated and billed.
  • Reports — the built-in report catalogue.
  • Customer & Shipping Line Portal — what your customers and shipping line contacts see when you invite them.

A note on what's documented here

This guide describes the product as it actually behaves today. Where a feature is visible in the product but not yet functional (a few Portal pages fall into this category), that's called out explicitly rather than left ambiguous.
