Import & Container Logistics

For an importer, the inventory that matters most is the inventory you do not have yet. Track every purchase order from mill to dock, and sell against it with confidence.

Mill To Dock, On One Record

Every import PO carries the detail your team currently keeps in email threads and shared spreadsheets: country of origin and on-water status, vessel, port, container number, bill of lading, freight forwarder, and broker file. One record, visible to sales and operations at the same time.

On-Water Visibility

Vessel, port and container detail sit on the PO itself, so anyone who needs to answer “where is it” can answer it without making a phone call.

Last Free Day Tracking

Demurrage is an avoidable cost that gets paid because nobody saw the date coming. Last Free Day is tracked on the container so it does not sneak up.

Receiving Boards

Container receiving boards check arrivals in with one click, generating the crate tags as part of the same action rather than a second pass.

Sell What Is On The Water — Without Overselling It

Sales order lines link directly to open import PO lines, with real-time available-quantity control against the inbound container. Two salespeople cannot commit the same material to two customers, because the quantity available against that PO line falls as it is sold.

Completion tracking and PO status visibility mean everyone can see how much of an inbound container is already spoken for, and how much is still there to sell — which is the difference between confident forward selling and guesswork.

What It Connects To

Container receipts generate the crate tags described under tally and tag-level inventory, and the ocean freight, duty and brokerage on the same shipment flow into landed cost. Import logistics is where the cost and the certification history of every tag begins.
