Loading Report
|
A document that lists the goods and their related documents which are loaded onto or unloaded from a transportation unit or vehicle for transportation purposes. This document is received from the external system of a loading or unloading location to report the loading or unloading information without a previous instruction. Comment: If goods for several customers are transported together on one vehicle or transportation unit, one LoadingReport corresponds to several bills of lading. Usage: The LoadingReport is used for communication between an external system of loading or unloading locations and a Transportation Management System. The external system instructs the Transportation Management System to perform the actions that are required to fulfill the transportation requirements. |
