All Forms

Create and print MT Delivery slips and Empty Removal permits.

On this page 6

OCTO Ops has two printable, one-off document types: an MT Delivery slip and an Empty Removal permit. Each is created, then printed — there's no list or profile to come back to afterward.

Before you start

Forms is not governed by permission groups. Any member of an organization with the Forms module enabled can create and print these documents.

Important

Selecting Forms > All Forms in the left navigation opens a page-not-found error — the module's own sidebar link doesn't work. Reach MT Delivery and Empty Removal by opening /forms/mt-delivery or /forms/empty-removal directly; neither screen links to the other.

Neither form validates what you enter — every field on both forms is optional, and both can be submitted completely empty.

MT Delivery

Opening /forms/mt-delivery shows a landing card reading "Each MT Delivery slip is a printable one-off document — create a new one to generate its printout." with a New MT Delivery slip button — there's no list of past slips.

  1. Select New MT Delivery slip.
  2. Optionally choose a Vessel and set the Vessel date.
  3. Optionally choose a Voyage.
  4. Optionally enter the Discharge port, Vessel operator, and Container operator.
  5. Optionally search for and select a Container number.
  6. Submit the form.
Field Required What to enter
Vessel No Pick from your organization's vessels.
Vessel date No Defaults to now if left blank.
Voyage No Pick from your organization's voyages.
Discharge port No Free text.
Vessel operator No Free text.
Container operator No Free text.
Container number No Type to search; there's no fixed list.

On success, you see a toast reading "MT Delivery slip created successfully" and you're taken straight to the printable view — not to a list or profile, since neither exists for this form.

The print view shows the Vessel and date, Voyage, Discharge port, Vessel operator, and Container operator in a plain printable table. Use your browser's print function; there is no PDF download.

Empty Removal

Opening /forms/empty-removal shows the same landing-card pattern: "Each Empty Removal permit is a printable one-off document — create a new one to generate its printout." with a button to start a new permit.

  1. Select the button on the landing card.
  2. Optionally choose a Vessel and set the Vessel date.
  3. Optionally enter the Vessel agent and Container agent.
  4. Optionally search for and select a Container number.
  5. Optionally enter the Vessel agent address and Container agent address.
  6. Submit the form.
Field Required What to enter
Vessel No Pick from your organization's vessels.
Vessel date No Defaults to now if left blank.
Vessel agent No Free text.
Container agent No Free text.
Container number No Type to search; there's no fixed list.
Vessel agent address No Free text.
Container agent address No Free text.

On success, you're taken straight to the printable view — not to a list or profile, since neither exists for this form.

The print view shows the permit details in a plain printable table. Use your browser's print function; there is no PDF download.

Current limitations

  • Neither form validates its fields — both can be submitted with everything blank.
  • Neither form has a list, profile, or edit screen. Once printed, a slip or permit can't be looked up again from within OCTO Ops.
  • There is no in-app link to either screen; both are reached only by their direct address.
