Measured tools (10)

• create_trade_documents read-only

  Create a matching proforma invoice, commercial invoice, packing list and shipping instruction from one set of order data. Returns a link to Triplicate's free generator with everything filled in (the user reviews it and saves the PDF), plus totals (amount, cartons, net/gross weight, CBM) and checks (missing fields, HS code format, Incoterms freight/insurance consistency). Nothing is stored.

  Parameters:

  • seller (required) — object — Seller / shipper / exporter
  • buyer (required) — object — Buyer / consignee / importer
  • items (required) — array
  • bank — object
  • terms — object
  • notify — object — Notify party, if different from the buyer
  • signer — object
  • charges — object
  • remarks — string — Optional remarks printed on the documents, e.g. 'SAMPLES OF NO COMMERCIAL VALUE, NOT FOR RESALE. VALUE FOR CUSTOMS PURPOSES ONLY.'
  • sold_to — object — Only if the buyer (sold to) is a different company from the consignee in 'buyer', e.g. a trading company buying for a factory: printed as BUYER (SOLD TO) on the invoice, the buyer on the proforma and sales contract
  • document — object
  • language — string — Language of the generator page the link opens (documents are in English)
  • shipment — object
  • hs_totals — boolean — Also print totals by HS code (quantity, value, cartons, weights) on the invoice and packing list, for the customs broker's entry lines
  • open_form — string — Also open one of the generator's extra forms with this data: VGM declaration (SOLAS, needs shipment.containers), ISF (10+2) data for a US buyer, USMCA/CUSMA certification of origin, packing declaration for sea containers to Australia, draft (bill of exchange), beneficiary's certificate, credit/debit note, shipping advice e-mail, or a return/repair invoice made from this invoice (the original invoice number, date and waybill as reference; the buyer as shipper when goods come back). Each has 3 free uses (the shipping advice has no limit).
  • manufacturer — object — Who made the goods, printed on the commercial invoice with its MID code (US shipments: carriers and CBP ask for it; textile and apparel entries must show it). The generator suggests the MID from 19 CFR Part 102 if mid is empty
  • open_document — string — pi proforma invoice, ci commercial invoice, pl packing list, si shipping instruction, sc sales contract (seller and buyer sign; the remarks become its other terms), co certificate of origin (non-preferential: the exporter's declaration, with space for a chamber of commerce to certify it), po purchase order (the buyer's order to the supplier: buyer = issuer, seller = supplier)
  • imperial_units — boolean — Also show weights in pounds and volume in cubic feet on the packing list and shipping instruction (for US buyers)
  • shipping_marks — string — Optional; generated from buyer, destination and carton count if empty

  • origin_statement — object — Preferential origin statement printed on the commercial invoice in the agreement's exact wording (3 free uses). Only for goods that meet the agreement's rules of origin.
  • destination_country — string — ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of the importing country (optional; otherwise taken from the port of discharge): adds that country's invoice rules to the checks

• lookup_port_code read-only

  Find the 5-character UN/LOCODE of a seaport, airport or inland container depot by place name (or check a code): returns code, name, country, subdivision, type and Triplicate's country page, for the port of loading or discharge on bookings, bills of lading and invoices.
