From the 1st July, 2016, the SOLAS amendment requiring mandatory verification of the gross weight of packed containers becomes enforced.
All export containers leaving Australia must have the Verified Gross Weight (known as the Verified Gross Mass or VGM) declared to the terminal representative. And if there is no VGM, the terminal must not load the container.
For Replace:
If you have submitted a PRA with incorrect data you do not have to cancel it before resubmitting the correct data in a PRA.
You will need to send the terminal a REPLACEMENT PRA.
Do not cancel a PRA if you intend to deliver this container number to this terminal, instead send a REPLACEMENT PRA to the terminal for the same container.
- The “Replace” option can be found in the “PRA History” screen.
- Clicking “Replace” will bring up the PRA you have elected to Replace.
- Change any data that was previously submitted incorrectly.
- Click “Send to Terminal” to send the REPLACEMENT.
NB.: You will need to wait for an “ACCEPTED” response for the REPLACEMENT before attempting to deliver the container to the terminal or attaching the correct container data to your VBS booking.
For Copy:
If you have submitted a PRA with correct data and you have more containers to PRA with similar data you can COPY the first PRA and submit another Container with the same data in a PRA.
- The “Copy” option can be found in the “PRA History” screen.
- Clicking “Copy” will bring up the PRA you have elected to Copy.
- Most data fields will be prefilled, enter additional data to complete a PRA as you usually would.
- Click “Send to Terminal” to send the new ORIGINAL PRA.
NB.: You will need to wait for an “ACCEPTED” response for this PRA before attempting to deliver this container to the terminal or attaching this container data to your VBS booking. The other container/s you have copied from have no connection to this PRA.
Only the most recent PRA submitted with a unique container reference will be recognized by the terminal and VBS
There are 5 PRA statuses which indicate where the PRA is at in the process. Refer to the table below for each status, the definition and required action (if any).
STATUS | DEFINITION | REQUIRED ACTION |
---|---|---|
DRAFT | The PRA has been saved as a draft and not yet submitted to the terminal. | The PRA can still be edited by you or your colleague and then send it to the terminal. Once you do send to terminal, the status will no longer show as DRAFT. |
PENDING | The PRA has been submitted but not yet sent to the terminal. | No action required.
This status is shown as soon as you hit the “Send to Terminal” button after creating a PRA. Our system will start processing your PRA, and the status will show as PENDING. Once the system completes its processing, the status will no longer show as PENDING. Most of the time this happens so fast that you will not see the PRA in this status at all. |
SENT | The PRA has been submitted and sent to the terminal. | No action required.
The PRA is now awaiting a response from the terminal, and once a response is received, the status will no longer show as SENT. |
ACCEPTED | The PRA has been accepted by the terminal. | The terminal has received your PRA and all is ok for you to proceed to deliver your container to the terminal. |
REJECTED | The PRA has been rejected by the terminal. | The terminal has received your PRA and the info you’ve provided doesn’t match what they’re expecting. Review the reason for rejection, correct the PRA and resubmit to the terminal. |
Whilst you use your own software, the program must send the PRA message to 1-Stop electronically.
The PRA message must:
- Be as an attachment to the email, in either
- The email must not include any text or images in the email body
See our technical specifications to the full instructions.
When a vessel is “cut off”, it means that the terminal cannot load containers on to it. Each vessel has a “cut off” date and time, and you find this in the vessel schedule.
If the vessel has been cut off but you still need to submit a PRA, contact your shipping line.
All late receival containers must be advised to the shipping line and relayed to the terminal on the “Late Receival List” in order to gain access into the terminal (and vessel).
Yes.
If you’re submitting the PRA through our website, then there is only the yearly subscription fee for access to the 1-Stop website.
There is no transaction cost for submitting a PRA.
If you’re submitting the PRA with a software provider, they may charge you and its best you contact the provider.
No.
The purpose of 1-Stop’s PRA was to eliminate errors associated with paperwork in regards to the declaration of exports. Consequently, it improved the standard of information for containers arriving at the terminal. Now, all export containers leaving any AAT, Patrick, DPW and Hutchison Ports terminals must first have an PRA accepted by the terminal before the container can be delivered.
So, the paper version of the PRA no longer exists for these terminals. They will only accept electronic PRAs.
The terminals listed in the link below have an EDI relationship with 1-Stop Connections, and can accept PRAs.
If you need to send a PRA to a terminal that is not listed here, then this means that the terminal does not accept PRAs. Instead, contact that terminal directly for further advice.

When submitting a PRA via our 1-Stop Gateway, you may receive the above warning.
This is just a warning message to let you know that a PRA has been submitted by you or someone in your organisation in the last 7 days.
You can continue sending your PRA by clicking the button “Ignore Warnings and send to terminal”.
A PRA can be submitted three different ways.
1. 1-Stop’s website.
Subscribe to our 1-Stop Gateway product and:
- Launch the 1-Stop Gateway
- Go to PRA -> Create
- Complete the web form and then click “Send to Terminal”
2. Use your own software.
You can purchase your own software to submit PRAs. You’ll need to work with your IT team if you need help.
3. User another software provider (such as Cargowise EDI, TradeGate, OzDocs, K-Line, BSM Global).
Contact those companies for advice on how to submit a PRA.
Once you’ve sent your PRA, it will be processed by the terminal, and they’ll send back an ACCEPTED or REJECTED message.
Only once the PRA is ACCEPTED will the container data be available in the VBS to attach to a booking.
If you have submitted a PRA with container number you do not intended to deliver to that terminal you will need to send the terminal a CANCELLATION PRA.
The process for cancelling your PRA will depend on how you submitted it. You’ll need to follow one of the three ways below.
1. 1-Stop Gateway customers, follow these steps.
- Navigate to the PRA page and you will see the history and status of each of your PRAs.
- Tick the checkbox of the PRA you wish to cancel.
- Click on the cancel link next to your PRA. You haven’t cancelled it just yet. This will just bring up the PRA information. Click “Yes” in the warning message to confirm that you wish to submit a cancellation to the terminal.
2. Through your own software:
If you use your own software will need to contact your own IT support or vendor for advice on how to cancel a PRA.
3. Through another provider:
If you use another provider (such as Cargowise EDI, TradeGate, OzDocs, K-Line), you will need to contact them for advice on how to cancel a PRA.
NB.: Once you’ve sent a cancellation PRA, wait for an “ACCEPTED” response for the CANCELLATION before submitting a new PRA.
Only the most recent PRA submitted with a unique container reference will be recognized by the terminal and VBS
Depending on how you submitted your PRA, you’ll need to use one of three ways to find out the status of your PRA, as follows:
- 1-Stop Gateway customers: navigate to the PRA page and you will see the status.
- Customers who use their own software: your software should display the status but if you need assistance you’ll need to email 1-Stop helpdesk: helpdesk@1-stop.com or call on ph 1300 881 055.
- Customers of other software providers (such as Cargowise EDI, TradeGate, OzDocs, K-Line): your software should display the status but if you need assistance you’ll need to contact your provider.
The 1-Stop vessel schedule provides accurate vessel information for all of the Patrick, DP World and AAT operated terminals around Australia.
The information is delivered to 1-Stop electronically from the terminals, who in turn receive their information from the shipping lines.
If the information you have from the shipping line doesn’t match the 1-Stop vessel schedules, it is most likely that the shipping line needs to either update the information given to you, or the terminal.

Rail Tagging and Release
1-Stop has included the functionality of a control message for Rail Tagging and Release.
The control message serves as an acknowledgement for the sender of the message, and the acknowledgement may either be a REJECTED or ACKNOWLEDGED status.
With this, the sender will be informed if their message is being processed or needs to be resent to 1-Stop. See our User Guides and Technical Specifications for more info.
We accept two types of message formats: XML and EDIFACT.
To learn more about them, and how you can send messages from your system to ours, see the User Guides and Technical Specifications.
Yes, aside from the control message 1-Stop will also be sending a rail release response message to the sender or the nominated email address on the message.
The rail release response message indicates whether the Tag or the Release message has been processed or accepted by the terminal.
Please refer to the message specifications for the error codes and their descriptions.
Rail Tagging and Release can be sent using 1-Stop’s Website or using the two message formats available in 1-Stop.
If you want to find out how to send Rail Tagging and Release messages from your own systems, take a look at our User Guides and Technical Specifications.

TABS
When you go to attach your container to your booking, the system looks up the container number and matches it against the information the vessel schedule.
If the information matches, you’ll be able to attach it.
If not, you’ll get that error message.
Possible mismatching information could be related to the:
- ETA and ETD
- Voyage number
- Against the vessel that the container is on.
What you can do:
- When attaching your container, look at the dropdown box on the “vsl/voy” section and select the vessel/voy number that is listed there
- Contact us so that we can request the terminal to send us an updated vessel schedule
VBS is also known as TABS
Our flagship product, the VBS, is the premier system for the Terminal to Landside interface. The VBS is active in 12 Terminals across Australia, New Zealand and South East Asia.

TYPE OF HOLD | STATUS | MEANING |
Line | Clear | The EIDO PIN has been received and acknowledged by the facility. |
Line | Held | The EIDO PIN has either not been received by the facility or it has been rejected. |
Customs | Clear | All holds on the Container have been lifted and cleared. It can also mean that the container is conditionally cleared by underbond. |
Customs | Held | There is a Customs impediment on the container, such as duty not paid, customs hold, XRAY hold etc. |
Other | Held | An “other” hold can be a any reason as applied by the terminal, including GAS Hold (Giant African Snail). |
There could be a few reasons why you cannot confirm your time slot. Here are some scenarios and the likely reasons why you’re experiencing them:
SCENARIO | LIKELY CAUSE AND RESOLUTION |
Error message: Invalid Container Number | This is caused when either
1. a particular container is missing from the vessel bayplan, or Contact us so we can investigate the above options and take the appropriate action. |
Error message: Booking For This Vessel Is Not Allowed | This is caused when either
1. your time slot is before the availability time For all 3 options try entering the container number, but don’t click “Get Details”. Instead, select the vessel and voyage, length and commodity manually, then click Save. If this does not work, contact us for further assistance. |
If you are seeing this message:
“You cannot make bookings at this time as your account is either restricted or inactive. Please call the terminal directly to have this rectified.”
It is because you owe payment for 1 or more invoices, and your VBS access has been “Restricted”.
In this “Restricted” state, you will only be able to login and navigate through the screens to view information. You won’t be able to make any new bookings.
To lift this restriction, contact the Terminal’s accounts department and resolve the outstanding amounts.
A ‘No Show’ occurs when a truck does not make the appearance at the terminal during the nominated slot time, after having confirmed the booking.
When this occurs, the booking will be treated as a “No Show” and you may be charged additional fees. The container number on the booking will then be prefixed with a “NS” and you cannot amend the booking.
The container will then be available for you to confirm against another booking.
You may receive this error message when attaching an EIDO PIN to your TABS booking.
To be able to attach the PIN, the following must have happened:
- The shipping line has sent the EIDO to the terminal through 1-Stop
- The terminal has confirmed that they accept the EIDO and respond with an ACCEPTED message to 1-Stop
So if you can’t attach the container to your booking, it might be because:
- The vessel / voyage / terminal and discharge port details that you have are not aligned with what the shipping line, terminal and 1-Stop have. 1-Stop can check this and if there are any mismatches we will ask you to contact your shipping line to verify the information with your and they will need to resend the eIDO in some cases.
- The terminal’s confirmation response has not been received by 1-Stop. We can check this also and if we don’t have it we’ll take the necessary action to have it remedied.
TABS data comes from the data that we receive hourly from the terminals.
The vessels displayed are all the vessel for the selected terminal.
Below are the columns displayed on the screen and an explaining of where that data comes from:
- ETA – directly from the ETA in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule
- Vessel – the vessel name as it appears in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule
- Lloyds – the lloyds number as it appears in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule
- In Voyage – the vessel voyage in number as it appears in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule
- Out Voyage – the vessel voyage out number as it appears in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule
- First Availability – this date comes from the date of the ‘last discharge’ message the stevedore sends to 1-Stop
- First Free – this date comes from the vessel Import Availability Date as it appears in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule. (for DP WORLD PORT BOTANY add +1 day extra)
- Storage Start – this date comes from the vessel Import Storage Start Date as it appears in the vessel feed as displayed in the vessel schedule.

1-Stop’s Access Card and the combined MSIC & Access Card grants you swipe access to these container terminals:
- DP World (DPW)
- Patrick (PAT)
- Hutchison Ports Australia (HPA)
- Australian Amalgamated Terminals (AAT)
You just need to purchase our combined MSIC & Access Card or just the Access Card if you have an MSIC from elsewhere. Make sure you select the terminal you need to visit, and complete the online induction and test for that terminal.
It’s easy.
Just go to MSIC and go to the Company Registration section. Click on “Click here to find out more” and follow the steps.
We’ll receive your registration and will respond within 24 hours either via email with your username and password, and instructions on how to apply for MSICs for your employees. Once you have your logon info and instructions, you can then organise cards for employees.
You will need the following:
- A valid email address and mobile number
- At least 10 years of address history (current and past addresses) and the dates you lived there
- Your identification documents
- Details of your business or employer, including a point of contact as proof of your operational need

Once the site has been added you can ‘Start’ the course and proceed with the test after completing the course. Only after you complete the test can you visit that terminal.
Once an MSIC is cancelled, that is final.
So if you now need an MSIC, you must apply for a brand new one. That is, you must start the process all over again. Go to MSIC to apply.
You will need a replacement MSIC.
Follow these instructions to get a replacement card:
- Log into MSIC
- Click the “Replace lost, stolen or damaged card” link
- Log in and follow the prompts
Note: Visit the Pricing page for the cost of replacing your MSIC.
When your MSIC card expires, if applicants are:
- Completing a renewal application: they need to hang on to their expired MSIC card, as when applicants go to collect their new MSIC card, they need to hand over the old card.
- Not renewing: they need to mail their expired card back to us. The mailing address is found on the back of the card – Po Box 3201, Redfern, NSW, 2016 Australia
