Dottle · packing list processing
Packing lists into your system line by line, without retyping.
Dottle reads packing lists and delivery notes down to the line: item, quantities, batch, best-before date and SSCC. It checks them against the order and the CMR, and posts them straight into your ERP or TMS.
Live in 4 weeks · from 18.5 cents per document · you only pay once your first document has been processed

Where it goes wrong today.
Lots of lines, lots of work.
Retyping a packing list for twenty pallets takes time, and one wrong figure carries through to your stock or your invoice.
A different format from every sender.
Columns, units and order differ from one supplier or customer to the next.
Discrepancies surface late.
If the quantity doesn't match the order or the CMR, you only find out at goods receipt or invoicing.

What Dottle checks.
Is anything missing?
No order number or no total package count: Dottle flags the packing list, because otherwise it can't be linked to the shipment.
Does it match the shipment?
Pallets and weight are compared with the CMR and the transport order, and PO numbers are checked side by side.
Is Dottle unsure?
Then you see which field it is, and where it sits on the packing list.

Good to know.
Does it work with Excel packing lists?
Yes. Besides PDFs and scans, Dottle also processes Excel and CSV files.
Can Dottle link the packing list to the order?
Yes, using the order number or PO number. Together with the CMR and the transport order, it goes into a single file, where the documents are checked against each other.
Does every supplier have to use the same format?
No. We set Dottle up once for each type of document, rather than for each sender.
What does it cost?
From 18.5 cents per document, with tiered pricing as your volume grows. The one-off setup costs €1,800–€4,000, depending on your situation, and is always agreed beforehand. You only pay once your first document has been processed.
