Find the missing destination
- Read the actual cargo name in the warning and vehicle. Crude oil, fuel and chemicals are different products.
- Inspect every intended destination. Does it currently consume that cargo, or have warehouse storage configured for it?
- Inspect the selected stop and terminal, then the catchment around the consumer or warehouse.
- Review the pickup filters. Stop loading cargo that this line is not meant to deliver.
- Observe the next arrival. Verify that stock leaves the vehicle and appears at the intended destination.

Separate the possible faults
| Observation | Inspect next |
|---|---|
| The line has a connection error | Track/street path and terminal reachability |
| The stop is reached but cargo remains aboard | Consumer type, storage setting and capacity |
| Cargo reaches a warehouse and stays there | The onward delivery line |
| A town accepts a different product | Current demand in that town’s district |
Loading and unloading are different checks
The line manual documents per-stop pickup filters and automatic unloading where a compatible consumer or warehouse is served. Review both sides of the operation. Setting a pickup percentage does not create demand at the destination.
