Abstract: A method includes receiving an electronic logistics document containing logistics data of received goods, processing the logistics data, and generating an electronic customs declaration. Generating can include extracting from the logistics document logistics data, deriving from the extracted logistics data customs data related to a customs procedure, and generating for at least a part of the received goods an electronic customs declaration document containing the customs data. The method can include providing the electronic customs declaration document at an output interface, transmitting the electronic customs declaration document to an input interface of an electronic customs clearance declaration system, receiving, from the electronic customs clearance declaration system, clearance data regarding the received goods at a second input interface, and marking the logistics data with a first marking to signal that the customs procedure has been completed.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, methods, apparatus, systems and/or computer readable mediums are provided. According to some embodiments, a method includes generating at least one shipment request data object based at least in part on at least one outbound delivery data object; generating at least one freight unit data object based at least in part on the at least one shipment request data object; generating at least one shipment data object based at least in part on the at least one freight unit data object; generating at least one invoice data object based at least in part on the at least one shipment data object; and generating at least one customs export document based at least in part on the at least one invoice.

Abstract: A system for processing electronic documents includes an existing business system (or systems) connected to a separate control system. The resulting composite system provides a framework that enables a flexible and customizable process definition for handling incoming documents. Within the process definition all the processing steps which are desired for handling an incoming electronic document can be predefined. Processing steps like checking the signature and authorizing an incoming legal document can be implemented in the control system and steps like posting a goods receipt or an invoice are implemented in one of the connected business systems. The content of the incoming document is evaluated to determine which business process may be used to carry out the necessary processing steps for the incoming electronic document. The assigned business process and a related process flow sequence define the processing steps to be implemented.

Abstract: A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction. In some operations, software creates, updates, or otherwise processes information related to Foreign Trade Commodity Catalogue and Foreign Trade Product Classification business objects.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for tracking goods. In one implementation, commercial goods are tracked in a trade zone having customs procedures. The goods include sets of bonded goods that are stored at a plurality of physically non-contiguous bonded storage locations and at least one set of unbonded goods that are stored at one or more unbonded storage locations. A virtual zone is defined to include the bonded storage locations, the sets of goods in the virtual zone forming a net inventory. A transaction request is received to execute a transaction upon a target set of goods of the commercial goods. The transaction is evaluated to determine whether the transaction affects the net inventory of the virtual zone. If the transaction affects the net inventory of the virtual zone, a message is generated for a customs authority to comply with the customs procedures.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products and systems, implementing and using techniques for managing data related to contents and operations of a warehouse. A request is received from one enterprise resource planning system from among two or more enterprise resource planning systems that are operable to exchange information with the decentralized warehouse management system. The request represents one or more operations to be performed on the contents of the warehouse. The enterprise resource planning system is identified from among two or more enterprise resource planning systems that are operable to exchange information with the decentralized warehouse management system. A response to the request is sent to the enterprise resource planning system from which the request was received.
