v1.0.0

Complete visibility into shipment process and enhanced traceability for related documentation 

• Shipment data is now processed with DL Asset Track and is stored on the blockchain network.
• Information from various documents encompassing complete shipment lifecycle (Release Order, Advanced Shipping Notification, Packing List, Invoice, Bill of Lading, Bill of Entry, Service Invoice, Freight Invoice, Material Received Receipt) is now directly generated on the DL Asset Track platform.
• This makes it easier to streamline the overall business process as data from all systems is available on a single platform.
• Stakeholders have multiple options to update information from these documents by either logging in directly onto the DL Asset Track platform or via API calls allowing for workflow flexibility.

Reduced discrepancies and improved transparency via real-time tracking of Invoices

 Reduction in inconsistent invoice amounts paid by Ford 

• Accurate tracking of charges (such as invoice amounts and custom clearance charges) makes it possible to ensure the amount quoted by the supplier, liner, DCHA, and transporter is error-free.
• Invoices now generated by the DL Asset Track platform mitigate human errors due to manual entry.
