The Discharged at POD view shows containers that are discharged and not yet picked up. Containers already returned empty have moved on and correctly drop out of it. If a container is missing from that view, check whet…

A routing can list a transhipment that the carrier later drops. The carrier’s own site sometimes keeps showing the original call for a while. A tradeflow can therefore show a leg that no longer happens, or show a routi…

Carriers occasionally publish an actual arrival or departure and retract it later the same day. Dockflow records what was received at the time, so a value can appear, then change back. If a date looks like it moved bac…

## [Why does Dockflow show an older ETA than the carrier's page?](https://community.dockflow.com/t/why-does-dockflow-show-an-older-eta-than-the-carriers-page/131)

Not the one you happen to be looking at. Dockflow resolves competing readings by three rules, in order: An actual beats an estimate, whichever source it came from. A confirmed event is never overridden by a predictio…

## [Why does my tradeflow show an ETA for a transhipment port instead of the port of discharge?](https://community.dockflow.com/t/why-does-my-tradeflow-show-an-eta-for-a-transhipment-port-instead-of-the-port-of-discharge/129)

If a tradeflow shows an ETA you did not expect, check whether it belongs to a transhipment port rather than the final destination. Dockflow shows the transhipment ETA when it has one, so you are not left without any ar…

</div>

You can see three arrival times for one container, and all three can be right. Terminal - the berth ETA. The moment the vessel moors. Carrier - often a “Final Destination Hub” time, meaning the container is available a…
