The Advance Shipping Notice (ASN) is an electronic message transmitted through EDI to notify the consignee of pending deliveries. The CLT dispatch/tracking framework identifies the ASN as a critical communication tool containing shipment details such as contents, quantities, carrier, and seal numbers. It allows the receiving facility to schedule dock appointments, allocate labor, and prepare for verification. Proof of Delivery confirms completion, not notification; Air Waybill applies to air freight; the consignee is the receiving entity. The ASN thus bridges outbound and inbound logistics, improving efficiency and data accuracy throughout the supply chain.

I definitely remember that the ASN is used to notify about shipments, so I’m leaning towards that option for this question.

I'm torn between the ASN and the POD. I know both are important, but I can't recall which one fits this definition better.

I remember practicing a question about shipping documents, and I feel like the ASN was mentioned as a key term.

I think an EDI notification of shipment is related to the Advance Shipping Notice, but I'm not completely sure.
