Until further notice, the emergency procedure for commercial releases is in effect. We will reassess the situation on November 3 at 5:00 AM and provide a further update.
What does this mean for you? Recap of the situation: All releases submitted from 4:00 PM on Saturday, October 31, until now may be delayed within Hinterland Container Notification. These releases will be processed over the course of the night.
This means that no updates will be processed instantly across any of the modalities within Hinterland Container Notification service. You can still nominate a carrier in Cargo Controller Import or Cargo Release Manager; however, until further notice, you will not receive any feedback regarding commercial release in Cargo Controller Import after the pre-notification at the terminal.
We advise you to wait until you see a response from the terminal in the Hinterland Container Notification service. Any new requests or updates cannot be processed and will only place an unnecessary burden on the platform.
Please note that calling our customer service will not provide additional information at this time. We kindly ask you to wait for our updates while we focus on resolving the issue.
Thank you for your patience. Kind regards, Portbase

Investigating
Dear Portbase user,
An operational error has been detected that has an impact on the Secure Chain. This may affect the service you are using. Statuses of containers may appear incorrectly. For example: ‘not nominated’ or ‘not pre-notified'. This may hinder the pickup of containers.
What can you expect from us? We are doing everything in our power to resolve this disruption as quickly as possible. For now, we ask for your patience and not to use a service. If the issue is not resolved within an hour, we will send a new update.
