PUTTING A CAR INTO BAD ORDER
Step 1: Equipment --> locate --> build your switchlist.
Step 2: Select your car then click MOVE.
NOTE: IF YOUR RAILCAR IS IN STA (STORAGE) DO NOT REMOVE IT FROM STORAGE.
Step 3: Select your Bad Order Reason in the drop bar. If you cannot find the correct category, just select other. This will help the Bad Order Team keep track of reasons for statistics. In the comments, write out the exact reason. Start with "BADO" then specify reason.
If one of the cars says UNLOAD FIRST or BADO AFTER RELEASED, you will need to follow the EIRR Bad Order Process
***********************************************************************************************************************************
If cars are on PCO OR PAC status they must be released from this status before placing in Bad Order.
If in PAC status you must RLO (Release Loaded) or RMT (Release Empty). Select car, click move, select which move you want.
If in PCO status you must RCP (Release from Constructive Placement). Select car, click move, select which move you want.
Once Release you can do a BLG move as advised.

THIS IS DETERMINED BY THE CAR'S CYCLE.
A cycle starts with an ICR (Inbound) and ends with an ICH (Outbound).
Tips to determine where a car is at in its cycle:
• On the Waybill, check the "Online Patron". If it matches the Shipper, it is an outbound bill to the Class 1. If it matches the Consignee, it is the Inbound bill to the Customer on our tracks.
• Check the Routing on your Waybill. If the FROM is our Railroad and the TO is the Class 1, block the Car to the Class 1.
- If car hasn't been released then it needs to go to the customer, if it has, it's now ready for the Class 1.
