This Use Case describes the exchange of the LTL

the customer (the consignee) are all getting the information they need for the
processing of the goods through the supply chain. The use of an LTL Carrier
Bill of Lading represents a shipment from a single origin to a single
destination. The carrier will keep the
original Bill of Lading on file and use a delivery receipt for confirmation of
the delivery of goods. The LTL Carrier
Bill of Lading referenced in this Use Case is an electronic message version of
the traditional bill of lading. |
