7 Introduction Introduction In this section: Ocean Export Overview Ocean Export Process Flow Ocean Export System Menu This section provides a detailed description of the Ocean Export System, which is an integral module of Logisuite. It explains different functions and features, identifies resources for working with different options related to Ocean Freight/ Export operations. Ocean Export Overview Logisuite Ocean Export module automates your entire ocean export operation, allowing you to focus on customers and building your business. It is based on proven operational workflow procedures, and integrates all the steps from quotation to booking to document distribution. Logisuite workflows follow the well-established industry processes. Moreover, the system is based on the industry familiar forms and processes using the easy-to-use screens. A template system is available which speeds the entry of repeat shipments. Vital information only needs to be delivered once and can be reused through all the subsequent steps. Document production is as simple as selecting the print button and includes complete flexibility to customize the output format. The system tracks the processing of OBL's, recording the submission of OBL's to steamship lines and the return from the line. Freight, brokerage and date of export are recorded and automatically extended to invoices as appropriate. Brokerage is computed for prepaid, collect and direct freight charges and invoiced to the steamship lines on demand. In addition to printing Bills of Lading and Invoices, the system can extract the data required to print Commercial Invoices if desired. A variety of statistical reports are available but we usually find that each Forwarder has its own unique requirements. We will provide whatever statistical and Sales Analysis reports are desired. Ocean Export Process Flow The diagram below shows the overall process flow for the ocean export system. It clearly depicts the overall export operation into a totally connected logistics and fulfillment business. 3

8 Printed Documentation Ocean Export Process Flow The overall process flow for the ocean export system is as follows: 1. Enter Ocean Freight Quote: A customer requests the transport of goods by ocean freight. An Ocean Quote is prepared for this service. The quote is printed or ed, if necessary. This Quote could be later retrieved from the Bill of Lading screen to generate it and produce all the necessary paperwork. 2. Book Bill of Lading: Once the customer approves the quote, or gives instructions to ship the goods, a bill of lading is booked to be used for shipping purposes. A file number is assigned to this transaction. 3. Prepare Bill of Lading: A Bill of Lading (BL) form is filled out. If a quotation was prepared, data from the quotation can be moved to the BL fields by entering the proper quotation # in the quote field. After entering all the BL data, the bill of lading, along with any other documents, like S.E.D., insurance forms, and the invoice, if necessary could be printed. The bill of lading is assigned to a file number that will be used to keep track of the operation from beginning to end. If necessary, a MANIFEST can be prepared after this step. 4. File Status: Bill of Lading status is changed according to the progress of the shipment, if the goods have been shipped, then it is complete and can be closed for later posting to Accounting Bridge. 5. POD: Upon execution of the Ocean Freight operation, the person who receives the goods must sign a receipt for the shipment. Signed by, Date and Time information is entered into the Ocean Bills of Lading record as Proof of Delivery. 6. Bill of Lading Status: Status of the Bill of Lading could be updated to reflect the completion or different sequences of the operation. 7. Print Reports: Some of the reports are printed in order to have a printout to review the ocean operations, billing, costs and other data. It can be used as an edit list to make corrections or adjustments before transferring transactions to the Accounting Bridge. 4

9 Introduction 8. Transfer to Accounting Bridge: Once the information reports have been printed, reviewed and corrections made, transactions can be posted to the Accounting Bridge for further update to LSAccounting or export to QuickBooks and PeachTree to keep track of the financials.
