Parties

The
Parties
 tab consists of all companies and/or individuals involved in the invoice/transportation transaction. This tab contains sub-tabs for various party types involved in typical imports (Importer, Seller, Ship To, Freight Forwarder, etc.).
Parties
 sub-tabs can be hidden upon request to meet client configuration needs. Each of these sub-tabs works in a similar manner. Company information can be entered manually or pulled from drop-down fields.
The company information in the drop-down fields comes from the

Maintenance
 menu within the user’s drop-down section (top-right of screen). These drop-downs have the type-ahead functionality to assist with searching.
