Import & export
Import export software vs spreadsheets: why the file always wins
Import export software is not a prettier grid. It is a consignment that owns its documents. Spreadsheets are excellent until the packing list lives in email, the invoice lives in a desktop folder, and landed cost lives in a file named final_v4.
When customs or finance asks a question, the spreadsheet cannot show who approved the HS code. Customer Flow is import-export software that keeps commercial terms, papers, and duty on one shipment file — inbound and outbound.
What to move off the workbook first
Start with the next container or air freight, not historical cleanup. Attach the commercial invoice and packing list. Add freight and duty as they appear so landed cost is a running total. Approvals sit on the same record.
That is the difference between import-export software and a shared drive. Customer Flow is built for trade teams in Pakistan, the UAE, and other lanes: the filing pack can change; the need for one file does not.
