Shipment Operations
A shipment touches sales, freight, customs, trucking and finance. When each team keeps its own records, handovers depend on messages, and a shipment’s status lives with whoever last touched it. In Bolisa, one file carries the whole shipment, so your teams work on the same record and you can see where every shipment stands.
Freight, customs clearance, trucking, container leasing and value-added services sit on one file, with the customer, shipper, consignee and the owner of each service. Add a service when the customer asks for it, without starting a new file.
The new-file wizard follows the services and billing you choose and asks only for the details they require. If something is missing, it takes you straight to the field.
Each mode moves through the stages it actually has, from booking confirmation to arrival. A stage asks for what it needs before it moves on. Chargeable weight and W/M are calculated from the cargo, and the carrier’s figure can override them.
Your freight team works in a grid that behaves like a spreadsheet: update vessel, voyage, cut-off and B/L details in place, filter from any column, save their own layouts, and keep a conversation on each shipment. Loading and stuffing plans are built from the same rows.
Some things are owed after the cargo has moved: export documents your authorities require after departure, original documents, certificates. Define each type once, with when it falls due and who owns it, and Bolisa creates it on every file it applies to. Overdue items show on the owner’s dashboard, and you can hold file closure until they are received.
Raise a claim from the file, classify it, assign an owner and a priority, and work it through a conversation with attachments. Resolve it with the party at fault, any settlement and the corrective action, so recurring problems become visible.
