Modern console manifest operations for air cargo.
SWAY ICON turns consol manifest filing into a guided, checkable workflow — from the pre-alert your agent sends through to a digitally signed, ICEGATE-format file.
Purpose-built for console agents, air freight operators and cargo agents filing consol manifests, amendments and part shipments. Structured masters, built-in validation, and a review checklist before anything is submitted.
A single secure workspace for the whole console manifest cycle.
A console agent files a consol manifest for every consolidation handled, built from the pre-alerts overseas agents send — accurately, on time, and in ICEGATE's exact format. Doing that in spreadsheets means re-typing the same agent, airline, airport and party details on every flight, and finding mistakes only when ICEGATE rejects the file. SWAY ICON replaces that with a guided workspace. Reference data is captured once as masters and reused on every filing. Master and house airway bills are entered in a structured form that knows what the manifest expects, whether the filing goes in before the flight arrives or after. The filing is reconciled and reviewed against a printable checklist, then produced as an ICEGATE-format file and signed with your DSC token — all before it ever leaves your desk.

Check and file
Pieces and gross weight on the master airway bill are checked against the total of its house airway bills, and the mismatch is shown as you work — not after ICEGATE rejects the filing.

Built for Businesses That Move
Consolidated Air Cargo
SWAY ICON is a filing workspace for air cargo console manifests. Console agents, air freight operators and cargo agents use it to build master and house airway bills from agent pre-alerts against reusable masters, reconcile pieces and weights, review a complete checklist, and produce a digitally signed ICEGATE-format file — all from one secure application.
From pre-alert to a signed filing, in four steps.
Every consol manifest is built, checked and signed in one workspace.
- 01
Set up your masters
Capture airlines, agents, parties, airports and customs locations once. Import them in bulk from Excel if you already hold them elsewhere.
- 02
Build the filing
Create a job, add each master airway bill and its house airway bills. Pull repeated details from the master instead of retyping them.
- 03
Check it before it goes
Run the checklist. Pieces and weights are reconciled, mandatory fields are validated, and the whole filing can be reviewed on paper or on screen.
- 04
Sign and file
Produce the ICEGATE-format file, sign it with your DSC token, and submit. Amend the job later and file again whenever details change.
