eManifest tabs: Manifests, Vehicle, Equipment, Crew
Manifests Tab
The Manifests Tab provides a summary of all the Manifests created by the eManifest program, and provides a Status History for each manifest record.
Manifest Summary Grid
The Manifest Summary Grid displays your Manifest records, depending on the filters currently set. Using the 'Status' and 'User' Filters available on the eManifest program’s Toolbar, you can have only certain records display here.
The details listed for each Manifest are entered using the eManifest program’s Header section. You can complete some tasks using the right-click Context Menu (see below).
Context Menu
Flag Manifest as Complete
Select this option when a currently Active record has been completed. It will be removed from the Record Summary Grid and will be viewable only when the Status Filter is set to 'ALL' or to 'COMPLETE'.

If the User must make some changes to a Manifest with the status of 'COMPLETE', selecting this option will set the Manifest’s status to 'REWORK', allowing it to be modified. Note that to view Manifests with 'COMPLETE' status, you must configure the Status Filter in the Toolbar.
