Switching to e-CMR brings many benefits, but a question that often arises is: does e-CMR actually work with every system? In the logistics sector, various transport management systems (TMS) and business software (ERP) are used, making it important that a digital consignment note integrates smoothly with existing processes.
Fortunately, e-CMR has been developed in such a way that it is widely applicable. Modern e-CMR solutions are designed to work with various systems, from simple planning software to extensive TMS and ERP platforms. This means that companies that already use a digital system can often switch to an electronic consignment note without major adjustments.
The key to successful integration lies in flexibility. A good e-CMR solution offers the possibility to synchronize data with existing software, so that transport information is automatically updated. This prevents duplication of work and minimizes the chance of errors. In addition, the digital consignment note makes it possible to share documents in real time, which makes collaboration between carriers, shippers and recipients more efficient.
Although e-CMR is compatible with different systems in most cases, the degree of integration can vary. Some older software packages may need an update to work optimally with e-CMR technology. That is why it is wise to investigate in advance whether the chosen e-CMR solution fits in with the existing infrastructure.
