Print a Master Bill of Lading
Overview
Master bills of lading are intended to provide carriers the information they need to properly route a shipment. As opposed to a standard, or straight, bill of lading which only shows shipment information, a master bill of lading is generated for shipments with information from the pickup load on which they ride.
Prerequisites
Before you can print a master bill of lading:
- A master bill of lading must have been generated for the load on which the shipment is riding. This happens automatically upon tendering a load that is eligible for a master bill of lading.
Process
To Print a Master Bill of Lading:
- Search for and select the shipment for which a master bill of lading should be generated.
- Hover the mouse over Shipping Documents and click Create MBOL.
Result
The master bill of lading opens in a new window. The tools at the top can be used to print a physical copy of the master bill of lading.
