   2. Once your CSV has been prepared, you can drag-drop or click to add your CSV file for bulk processing
2. Manually upload one or more containers via the webapp
   1. For every container that you want to track, please input the container number

   3. B/L, POL, and POD are optional input
   4. Once you have input your container details, you can click on the “Add Containers” button

If you don’t have a container number ready for onboarding process, you can always exit the container upload flow. You can return back to this flow anytime by clicking on the “Add Container” option in the webapp
