Human review required
The operator sees extracted details alongside the source documents. They correct, complete or approve the information before it goes to CargoWise.
Document to CargoWise
Packing list to CargoWise.
Turn packing lists and bills of lading into booking data your team reviews before sending to CargoWise. Stop retyping shipment details from documents.
How it works
Documents in. Reviewed data out.
Your operator uploads a packing list and bill of lading. CargoMode extracts the container numbers, weights, cargo descriptions and party details. The operator reviews the extracted information against the source documents and corrects or completes it. Once approved, the booking syncs to CargoWise through your configured connection.
Built for: Freight forwarders who copy shipment details from PDFs into CargoWise bookings.
Three steps. Your team stays in control.
- Upload documents
Bring packing lists, bills of lading and commercial invoices together in one booking.
- Review extracted details
Check container numbers, weights, cargo and party names against the documents. Correct or complete the information.
- Approve the CargoWise sync
Send the reviewed booking data through your configured connection and check the result.
Your operator reviews the information before approving the transfer to CargoWise.
Built for freight operations
CargoMode works alongside CargoWise.
Not a replacement
CargoMode does not replace CargoWise. It handles document extraction and review before your team sends the booking to your CargoWise company.
Configurable connection
Your CargoWise eAdapter connection is configured once. Bookings sync to the correct company when an operator approves them.
More than one workflow
Email intake included.
When shipping documents arrive in an email, forward them to your organisation's CargoMode address. The attachments enter the document workflow and CargoMode replies with a link back to the booking for review.
Useful when: Documents arrive in inboxes and someone has to download, upload and re-enter them.
Forward the email. Start the work.
- Forward the shipping email
An authorised sender forwards documents to the organisation's configured address.
- Follow the reply
Use the link in the return email to open the booking in CargoMode.
- Review and approve
Check the details before using the CargoWise sync workflow.
Email intake requires setup for your organisation and registered senders.
Common questions
Packing list to CargoWise questions.
How does CargoMode get data from a packing list into CargoWise?
Your operator uploads the packing list and any related documents. CargoMode extracts container numbers, weights, cargo descriptions and party details. The operator reviews the extracted information against the documents, corrects or completes it, and then approves a sync to CargoWise through your configured connection.
Does CargoMode automatically send to CargoWise?
No. A human operator reviews the extracted information before approving the sync. CargoMode does not send data to CargoWise without that review and approval step.
Can we use CargoMode if we do not use CargoWise?
The workflow shown here is built around CargoWise. Document extraction and review may still be relevant for other systems, but the connected sync requires CargoWise. Tell us which systems you use so we can assess the fit.
Which documents can CargoMode process?
The document workflow supports packing lists, bills of lading and commercial invoices. Document layouts and quality vary, so we recommend checking representative examples from your own workflow during a demo.
What if the extracted information is incomplete or wrong?
Your operator reviews the extracted details alongside the source documents and corrects or completes the information before proceeding. Clearer documents help, but automated extraction still needs a human check.
Can we forward packing lists by email?
Yes. Once email intake is set up, registered senders can forward documents to their organisation CargoMode address. CargoMode processes the attachments and sends a reply with a link to continue working on the booking.
Does email intake replace the review step?
No. Forwarding an email creates the booking and extracts the information. The operator still reviews the details and approves the CargoWise sync.
How is the CargoWise connection configured?
Your CargoWise eAdapter connection is configured once during setup. After that, approved bookings sync to the correct CargoWise company through that connection.
Can we test this with our own packing lists?
Yes. Tell us what you want to test when booking the demo and we can agree suitable sample documents in advance. Redacted or example documents can help demonstrate the workflow without exposing unnecessary customer information.
What will we cover in a demo?
We start with the documents your team copies from. We walk through the extraction, review and CargoWise sync workflow and then discuss the connection setup, access requirements and a practical first use case.
