# Introduction

# Conditions

# What I learned

::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Most of the fields will auto-fill from the system, but the remaining ones should be filled in manually. Like the MB/L number.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
The filled values will be reflected in the description of the cargo and will be displayed in the Bill of Lading document when generated in PDF format.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Temperature is the only mandatory field in the refrigerated details module. The other fields depend on the specific instructions provided by the shipper and the nature of the cargo.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
Different types of commodities require different information in the details field.
:::

:::WorkflowBlockItem
To modify the type of commodity, right-click on the commodity row and click on the "Edit type commodity" option.
