Detailed Information

A Manifest is a comprehensive document that lists all shipments included in a particular batch, vehicle, or container.

Manifests are used for tracking, auditing, and ensuring all packages are accounted for during transit. In e-commerce logistics, manifests are generated when shipments are handed over to courier partners.
