---++++ Partner is unknown

If your partner is unknown you will see a message to *invite* him to become your partner.

   * Click on the *Invite* button to send him an automatic invitation.
   * You will see newly invited members in the list with the remark *Pending*, meaning that this person didn't respond to your invitation yet.

If your partner or his company is known, you will see his name appear in the search results.

   * Use the *Add to Group* button to add people as your partner:

---++++ Active Shipments

After adding your partners you will see your active shipments at these partners.

 <b>NOTE: Your credentials must be right, or you will see nothing. This is explained further down below.</b>

   * Each partner has it's own button on top of the page.
   * Click on a button to enter or assign a new shipments to that partner (the Partner window opens).
   * After you entered a new shipment, choose *Active Shipments* from the menu.
   * This is an example of an Active Shipments page:

| | <img alt="tc_shipments.png" src="%PUBURL%/Cargooffice/StartupGuideTransportCommander/tc_shipments.png" title="tc_shipments.png" /> |
 
---++++ Credentials

Notice the *red border* around the last partner button (the button of Rutgers Transport).<br /> This means that your credentials at that partner are not right.<br /> You need a *login* and *password* at that partner. *Ask your partner for a login if you haven't got one*.

   * Use the menu button to go back to the *Partners* screen and click on the name of the partner:

| | <img alt="tc_click_company.png" src="%PUBURL%/Cargooffice/StartupGuideTransportCommander/tc_click_company.png" title="tc_click_company.png" /> |
The *details* of that partner appear on screen.

   * Enter the *login* and *password* you received from that partner:

| | <img alt="tc_company_details.png" src="%PUBURL%/Cargooffice/StartupGuideTransportCommander/tc_company_details.png" title="tc_company_details.png" /> |
If your credentials are correct for each partner (login and password) then the system is able to show you the shipments.
