What is BAPLIE?
BAPLIE is set of instructions stored in text file, used to transmit information about all occupied places on board of a vessel to interested parties like ship-owner and the terminal operator in next port of call. Although the message is also suitable to transmit information about empty places this feature is not used. The message can be transmitted to the vessel (i.e. via modem or by floppy disk) eliminating the use of the paper "master" plan.

Who controls BAPLIE instructions?
BAPLIE is designed by the SMDG (User group for Shipping Lines and Container terminals). Full name of the BAPLIE file is "UN/EDIFACT UNITED NATION STANDARD MESSAGE (UNSM) BAYPLAN/STOWAGEPLAN OCCUPIED AND EMPTY LOCATION MESSAGE" (BAPLIE).

To find more about EDIFACT BAPLIE file format go to : User group for Shipping lines and Container Terminals
