This article walks you through generating and downloading a Bill of Lading from a shipment in polt.ai.

Before you start: The shipment must already be created. The BOL pulls information from the shipment record, so make sure shipper, consignee, commodity, and reference number details are accurate before generating it.

From the Shipments dashboard, find the shipment you want to download a BOL for and click to open it.

Click the Documents tab and click the New Document button.

In the dropdown, select Bill of Lading.

Review the BOL details and select everything you want to include on the document. Click Add when ready.

The BOL is generated and added to the Documents section of the shipment.

Click the Download button to the right of the document to save it to your computer.

Tip: To email the BOL to a shipper, consignee, or carrier, click the three dots (⋯) next to the document and select Share. Enter recipient email addresses and click Share.
