Customs Documentation Assembler
A done-for-you logistics automation built for the Import/Export Coordinator, connecting Zapier and Make.com so the work below happens on its own.
What this automation does, step by step
For every international shipment, this automation automatically pulls the commercial invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin directly from the order management system and assembles them into the exact format required by customs for that destination country.
The completed packet is automatically sent to the freight forwarder as soon as the shipment is booked, instead of a coordinator manually gathering three separate documents from three separate systems under a shipping deadline.
Shipments move through customs faster because the paperwork is correct and complete before the truck even leaves the dock.
- An ERP or order management system
- Zapier or Make.com
- Google Drive or Dropbox
Using different software? We build around what you already have, so you never have to switch tools to automate.
The manual way vs. the automated way
Without automation
Left to a person, this means an import/export coordinator re-enters the same data more than once, double-checks it by hand, and still occasionally misses something.
With this automation
- Expiration and renewal alerts on a 90, 60, and 30 day countdown
- Signature and document chasers that escalate on their own
- Deadline tracking for filings, permits, and inspections
- An automatic audit trail of every notice sent
