As a registered participant of an expedition in the Expedition Interface System (EIS) your access to the freight module of EIS is granted. To use it, please click on „My Freight“ on the menubar on the left.
If you have already created freight, these are displayed in the list below in "Freight". Here you also create new freight using the button "+Create new freight".

When all is done, you click on "To collect freight".
2) Detailed information "Collect freight"
The basic information of your freight, which you entered in the step before, are still available, when you use the pen-symbol on top right. As we now concentrate on the freight items, we do not need this information currently, but you can easily access it.
If you have been taking part in a former expedition from PS121 onwards, maybe you or your group has already entered freight items into EIS and now you can re-use these or parts of it. It is additionally possible to use the upload function via Microsoft Excel-template which you find on the web pages of the AWI logistics. If you want to use it, please take care about the version of the templates shown in dialogue boxes and help-information directly in EIS.
