Document Handling

Document Handling

Rail, sea and air freight handlers can manage many documents for each consignment they handle, ranging from shipping notes, to dangerous goods notes, waybills and bills of lading.

It’s important that every piece of documentation is available when it is required by receipting agents, customs or other parties. Having correct documentation on hand allows efficient loading, unloading, clearance through customs, shipping and tracking – minimising delays, storage charges, fines and lost shipments.

Many shipping containers are comprise multiple consignments that must be handled and documented separately. The cost and time handling of inbound freight, especially within a cross-dock operation, can rise significantly if the accompanying paperwork is not in order.

Document Manager for freight documentation is a software solution that enables all shipping and delivery documentation to be captured as it is created and to be made instantly available when required facilitating problem free transit.
