Hi Jim, Your starting view point is a bit incorrect. For a Logistics Service Provider (lsp), in general, the incoming packages should be associated with a sales order as it is a customer who orders the shipment. And for each packages you would then have, at least following parties, involved:
- The company - the internal organisation that is legal responsible for the order, invoice and shipment - The customer - the external organisation that wants to have the package shipped and delivered - The person accepting the package When the lsp is using other lsp's (for e.g. first-mile, last-mile or hub-to-hub transports), these other lsp's should be regarded as suppliers (sub-contractor).
