Match every shipped quantity with verified proof.
Track planned quantity, loaded quantity, weighment records, tally counts, shortage notes, excess cases, and final quantity confirmation before shipment closure.
The reconciliation layer behind accurate shipment records.
Planned Quantity Reference
Capture the quantity expected from contract, nomination, dispatch plan, purchase order, or customer instruction.
The cargo is moving. The final quantity is still being confirmed.
Quantity data changes during execution
The planned quantity may change because of cargo availability, loading limits, container capacity, weighment difference, or buyer instruction.
Tally records are maintained manually
Bag count, package count, pallet count, lot quantity, or loaded weight may be written on paper and shared later.
Weighment proof is disconnected
Gross weight, tare weight, net weight, weighbridge slips, and site records may not stay linked to the shipment file.
Shortage and excess cases need explanation
A gap between planned and actual quantity must be supported with reason, evidence, and responsible confirmation.
Document teams wait for final numbers
Invoices, packing lists, BL drafts, certificates, and customer records cannot be finalized confidently until quantity is confirmed.
Quantity errors directly affect billing, documents, and buyer trust.
In cargo movement, quantity is not only an operational number. It impacts invoice value, packing list, BL details, customs records, buyer acceptance, payment, and claims.
Quantity Control helps teams verify what was planned, what was available, what was loaded, and what was finally confirmed.
Planned and actual must match
Even a small gap between nominated, loaded, stuffed, dispatched, and shipped quantity can create commercial and documentation issues.
Quantity proof protects teams
Tally sheets, weighment slips, field remarks, and loading evidence help explain shortage, excess, or variation later.
Decisions need quick visibility
When quantity is short, excess, damaged, or held, teams need to know before documents and shipment records are finalized.
Bring quantity checks into one controlled reconciliation flow.
CargoClave helps teams manage quantity control with planned quantity visibility, field tally capture, weighment linkage, variation tracking, and final confirmation.
Quantity Control Record
Create a shipment-level quantity record showing planned, available, loaded, weighed, accepted, and pending quantity.
Tally Capture
Record package count, bag count, pallet count, lot quantity, batch details, loading remarks, and field confirmation.
Weighment Linkage
Attach weighbridge slips, vehicle details, container references, gross weight, tare weight, and net weight to the shipment.
Shortage & Excess Tracking
Capture variation reason, evidence, approval requirement, responsible owner, and closure status.
Lot-Wise Reconciliation
Track quantity by lot, batch, warehouse, vehicle, or container where shipment movement needs deeper control.
Final Quantity Approval
Confirm final accepted quantity before documents, billing, certificates, or customer communication move forward.
Where the Workflow Breaks
Quantity disputes start when numbers are not reconciled on time.
Teams use different quantity references
Commercial may track contract quantity, warehouse may track available stock, operations may track loaded cargo, and documentation may track shipped quantity.
Field tally is not verified quickly
Manual tally may be shared after loading, leaving little time to correct shortage or mismatch.
Weighment slips are not linked properly
A weighment record may exist, but teams may not know which vehicle, container, lot, or shipment it belongs to.
Variations are accepted informally
Shortage or excess may be discussed over calls without a structured reason, approval, or supporting proof.
Documents are prepared with unconfirmed quantity
If final quantity is not validated, invoice, packing list, BL, certificate, or customer submission may need correction later.
Better quantity accuracy.
Fewer commercial disputes.
