Optimize your logistics processes with advanced document management in Adaption Transport Management System (TMS)
In the dynamic world of transport and logistics, speed, accuracy, and transparency are essential. Document management plays a central role in this. With Adaption’s TMS, you manage all your logistics documents easily, centrally, and securely. This prevents errors, speeds up processes, and increases customer satisfaction.
Document management within Adaption Transport Management System (TMS) supports you in:
With Adaption, you maintain control over your document flows and prevent important papers from getting lost or manual errors from occurring. This results in smoother logistics processes, shorter turnaround times, and improved compliance.
In addition to the TMS, document management is also integrated into our Warehouse Management System (WMS) and Forwarding Management System (FMS), offering a complete supply chain solution.
Within Adaption TMS, we support a wide range of essential documents:
The Airway Bill is the standard document for air freight shipments. It serves as a receipt for the goods and as a transport agreement between sender and airline. A correct AWB is crucial for fast and error-free handling of air shipments.
The CMR consignment note is mandatory for international road transport within Europe. It records, among other things, the sender, carrier, cargo, and destination. The CMR also defines liability in case of loss or damage.
The EUR certificate proves that goods originate from a specific country within a free trade zone. This allows companies to benefit from reduced or zero import duties.
The TR1 document is required for exporting goods to countries outside the EU. It confirms the origin of the goods and is necessary for customs clearance.
The Bill of Lading is a legal document that proves ownership of goods during sea transport. It confirms that the carrier has received the goods in good condition and guarantees delivery to the correct recipient.
This document contains detailed instructions for the carrier on how to correctly prepare the Bill of Lading. It includes information about the cargo, shipping route, freight terms, and the recipient.
For the transport of dangerous goods, special documents are required that comply with international standards such as ADR, IMDG, and IATA. Adaption TMS supports the management of these documents, ensuring you always meet legal safety requirements.
For rail transport, a Railway Booking is prepared, recording wagon reservations, departure and arrival times, and cargo details. These documents are essential for efficient planning and execution of rail transport.
The Vessel Arrival Notice informs involved parties of a ship’s scheduled arrival at the port. This document helps optimize loading and unloading processes and minimizes waiting times.
By integrating document management not only within our TMS but also within the WMS and FMS, you benefit from a total solution:
Reduced administrative burden:
Less paperwork and manual tasks.
Higher accuracy:
Fewer errors and faster corrections.
Accelerated invoicing and customs clearance:
Thanks to accurate and quickly available documents.
Improved collaboration:
