When to use it
Use this immediately after delivery while the POD, BOL, receipts, approvals, and invoice instructions are still fresh.
Checklist
Common mistakes
- Signing before the written confirmation matches the broker call.
- Keeping revised confirmations, receipts, and POD notes in separate places.
- Missing a billing requirement that delays payment after delivery.
Working format
- Build the packet in this order: invoice, rate confirmation, POD, BOL, receipts, accessorial approvals, and revised confirmations.

- Leave one dated note for any missing document or broker follow-up.
