To ensure that the goods are allowed to proceed out of the deconsolidation warehouse, it is necessary to determine if they are in transit. For instance, if there are six house bills for import clearance at the warehouse, and one is for onward transit to a Customs port, how would the warehouse be notified to release it to the trucker?

According to the CBSA, when the warehouse sends the WACM on Arrival and the sublocation code on the eHBL is not the same as its sublocation code, the response will be “Ports Do Not Match.” This means that the house bill has not arrived and is still on the 8000 CCN, with the freight forwarder being responsible. Note that the warehouse does not assume any liability as the shipment has not arrived.

The CW deconsolidation warehouse should also have load manifests that indicate the final destination of each house bill. It is important to note that this scenario highlights the usefulness of Manifest Forward, the Secondary Notify Party, SNP Business Instructions, and Shipment Handling Instructions fields. These tools can be used to send the eHBL data for clearance/exit, whether in the same port or another port, to the destuffing warehouse. As a result, they will be aware of what will happen to all eHBL shipments in that container.
