Changelog
Every change to a verdict, with the date, the reason and who asked. A vendor's correction is re-checked the way the row was first checked. When Cargo-Planner documents something new, an auditor re-scores the row before our number moves. Every version stays downloadable.
Version 1.1 5 October 2026
Re-audit of Cargo-Planner, requested by Cargo-Planner after revising its documentation against the published rows. Re-scored on all 149 rows from the live site by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Any vendor can ask for the same. The other eight products are unchanged.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can set a minimum fill for a unit, below which the unit is not used and its cargo is moved or left unloaded. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can allow an orientation only when the item is not on the floor (or only when it is). Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can set stacking limits (stack count or load-bearing weight) that differ with the item's orientation. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The load-bearing limit also applies within a stack of identical units. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can set different maximum weights for lengthwise sections of the unit (for example front, middle and rear floor sections). Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can set how far one stop's goods may overlap the next stop's along the unit's length. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can allow cargo to overhang the pallet edge by up to a set distance. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can control where the load sits on the pallet deck: centred, or within a set distance inside the edge. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: A built pallet or packed carton can be carried into a later vehicle plan as an item with its actual size and weight, without re-entering them. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The user can make the planner maximise loaded weight (or weight utilisation) instead of volume. Not counted → counted. Cargo-Planner revised its documentation after v1.0 and requested a re-audit. Re-scored from the live site on 5 October 2026 by a fresh auditor and independently verified. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The plan gives per-stop information: the contents for each stop and a view of the unit at each stop. Counted → not counted. The evidence is unchanged since v1.0. On re-reading, no page describes what loading instructions by a custom property produce, so a per-stop summary rests on an undescribed setting (rule: undescribed field). Confirmed on independent verification. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
- Cargo-Planner: The plan reports the cost of the equipment used, and the cost allocated to each item. Counted → not counted. The evidence is unchanged since v1.0. The only source is 'cost information' in a list of what one layout block shows, with nothing saying what cost is reported (rule: undescribed field). Found on independent verification. Requested by: Cargo-Planner.
