SmartBOL Enterprise electronic signature capture and bill of lading imaging feature captures driver's signature on electronic signature pad, applies it to the bill of lading/s and saves signed bill of lading images into the SmartBOL database - all in one step. This process eliminates manual document scanning or the time wasted on finding paper copies. SmartBOL Enterprise plugs-in to an ERP or WMS systems to reuse information stored in these systems.

How does it work:

• SmartBOL operator creates one or more bill of lading by importing shipment information using ERP / WMS link, by importing a CSV file with shipment info or by entering it manually.

• Operator previews one or more BOLs. The preview shows all pages of the selected bill of lading/s on the screen exactly as they would be printed on a printer.

• Operators clicks on the Sign button to activate the signature pad connected to PC. Electronic signature pad is similar to the signature pads used in retail stores

• Driver signs on the electronic signature pad.

• SmartBOL applies driver's and shipper's signature to all the bill of ladings in the preview while saving the signed bill of lading images into the database at the same time.

• Operator prints bill of ladings and gives a copy to the driver.

• Signed BOL copies can be retrieved from any SmartBOL client installed in the same or remote location.

Benefits:

• Eliminates manual scanning

• Eliminates the need to sift thru paper copies stored in file cabinets

• Back-office personnel can retrieve and print documents for any shipment made from any warehouse without calling anyone at the warehouse

Shipment data import links:

In order to avoid manual data entry and costly shipment errors, many SmartBOL users import shipment information from an external source such as ERP or WMS. SmartBOL can import shipment data in the following two ways;

• ERP / WMS link: SmartBOL can create one or more data import links to any ERP / WMS with ODBC data source. Once mapped, operator enters the shipment key and creates bill of ladings with a single click. SmartBOL has been interfaced to Microsoft Dynamics GP / AX, MAS 90 / 200, SAP Business One, AS400 based systems, Macola and many other  custom ERP / WMS systems with ODBC database.

• CSV flat file import: SmartBOL can also import a CSV file with complete shipment information, created by an external process.
