Shipment Management Centre
The Shipment Management Centre is a Transportation Management System (TMS) that allows shippers and vendors to communicate shipment information electronically to their customers and transportation providers. The system saves time and effort by using templates to capture repetitive shipment information, generate shipping documents and distribute these documents to the trade partners that need them. Enterprise systems can electronically send over order information to create bookings and documents, thus extending a client system in a cost-effective manner.
The Shipment Management Centre is integrated with the Trade Partner Centre and the Product Management Centre. The shipper or vendor is a trade partner who adds products from the Product Management Centre to a booking to create documents such as the invoice and packing list. This integration drives consistency and accuracy in the documentation that the system produces. Compliance checks are built into the system to enforce restricted party and embargo screening.
