Delivery Order (DO)
A delivery order (DO) is an official document issued by a carrier, freight forwarder, or NVOCC (non-vessel operating common carrier) to confirm the transfer of goods to the consignee. A delivery order functions as an essential component in logistics networks because it provides proof that receivers can obtain goods after meeting payment requirements, alongside customs clearance standards.
CargoWise allows you to create and track DOs digitally. This improves the cargo handover procedure by integrating it with finance and customs workflows. The paperwork usually contains cargo details, pickup directions, and consignee information. Automating DOs in CargoWise reduces manual errors, ensures cargo is released to the appropriate party, and reduces delays. By successfully handling DOs, logistics companies can improve operational accuracy and speed up cargo delivery from ports or terminals.
