In Transpas it is possible to add crossings to the planning.
These crossings can be created in the Crossings screen.
With the Crossing module (or Ferry module) a crossing order is also created when adding a crossing - provided that a crossing provider account exists for that creditor.
With one click of a button a booking can be sent to the ferry or train company. Sending this always remains a manual action.
The status of the crossing order is constantly checked. The checking of an order differs per crossing provider. It can sometimes take a while before the external order number is passed on.
How crossing orders can be booked and adjusted, is explained in the article crossing orders.

The reference under which the crossing order from Transpas is known to the ferry company is in the field Confirmed order id.
These can be found in Transpas under Crossing orders, tab General:
The reference is always (Crossing order number)-(Trip number).
Reference 9943-50111 therefore belongs to crossing order 9943, which is linked to trip 50111.

With CTRL + K (or the copy button) you can easily copy a crossing order one or more times.
