A shipment confirmation is sent to the you, and Lynden handles the rest. Automated Documentation-Whether customers need a Domestic Air Bill, International Shipper's Letter of Instruction, Export Declaration, Bill of Lading, Pickup Manifest, or Domestic and International Shipping Labels, the system remembers your shipping information, and it fills out the appropriate labels and documents for your type of shipment.

EZ Tracing: Lynden's EZ Commerce Center keeps customers in touch with their shipments through its EZ Tracing service. With EZ Tracing, our customers can obtain detailed shipment status information 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Available information includes shipment progress to destination, status reports, and images of signed delivery receipts. EZ Tracing also lets customers "drill down" into our database for up-to-date, accurate status reports and other information including costs, reference numbers, and shipment characteristics.

EZ Reporting: As an EZ Commerce customer, shipment information can be downloaded into reports that help manage the transportation process. Available in Microsoft Excel, HTML, or Comma Delimited file formats, the reports can be downloaded in any of four categories: Management Report-Displays the amount of freight your company has shipped for a specified period of time. Weight and pieces are shown for master bills when there are multiple shipments; Operations Report-Displays shipping and receiving information including all status information for shipments within the specified date range; Accounting Report-Displays accounts payable payment and cost information on shipments within a specified date range. The report only includes bills that have been invoiced; Outstanding Balance Report-Displays any outstanding invoices, including links to shipping documents, charges, payments, adjustments and shipment details. You can download the reports whenever you want, or you can schedule them to be emailed to you as often as you like.

EZ Invoicing: Introducing EZ Invoicing, the latest addition to Lynden's EZ Commerce suite of electronic services that help customers do their shipping more efficiently, while reducing paperwork and saving time. When a customer signs up for EZ Invoicing they will receive an email message notifying them that their latest invoice is available online.
