Ocean Freight
LCL EDI Bookings: Expanded Capabilities
Scope now includes the ability to handle LCL (Less than Container Load) bookings and shipping instructions via EDI (Electronic Data Interchange). This new feature allows users to seamlessly transmit booking information and shipping instructions directly to SACO Shipping and Shipco. The integration with other Co-Loaders is in progress and will be available shortly. To enable this functionality, users should contact Riege Service for activation.
Your Benefits:
- Time-saving: Automated transmission of booking and shipping details reduces manual data entry.
- Error reduction: Minimizes the risk of input errors through standardized EDI processes.
- Increased efficiency: Direct communication with SACO Shipping and Shipco speeds up the booking process.
- Future-ready: Expanded integration with additional Co-Loaders offers greater flexibility.
- User-friendly: Easy activation by contacting Riege Service.
Optimize handover processes: Confirmation of loading and unloading in new handover note (FILAM)
With the introduction of the handover bill, we are offering you a flexible alternative to the CMR consignment note that enables you to use FILAM comprehensively and effectively. This opens numerous advantages for you:
- Broader application: The handover note can be used in various areas - for ocean freight import, ocean freight export, air freight as well as for light shipments. This allows you to use FILAM on a broader basis.
- Flexibility in recording: In contrast to the specific delivery note for ocean freight import, you can enter the handover note neutrally. It also offers you the option of using it as a delivery note for self-deliveries, even if no printed transport order is available by using a partner “SELF-DELIVER” with the haulier role.
- Seamless integration: The handover note supports the link between FILAM and the transport order. If no transport order has been entered, FILAM will not be executed - so your processes remain efficient and accurate.
Detailed information on using the loading/unloading confirmation can be found in our Knowledge Base.
Air Freight
Air Security: Manual Update/Entry of Security Status
In response to regulatory requirements in certain countries, particularly where the European Union's manual security confirmation is mandated (such as by the LBA in Germany), Scope now enables authorized users to manually update the air security status. This feature is specifically designed for scenarios where a manual confirmation of the security status is required. When activated, authorized personnel can directly enter or modify the security status for eligible users, ensuring compliance with local regulations. For more details on activating and using this feature, please refer to the detailed release notes.
Your Benefits:
- Regulatory Compliance: Ensures adherence to local regulations, such as those enforced by the LBA in Germany, by allowing manual security status updates.
- Flexibility: Provides authorized users with the ability to manually confirm and adjust air security statuses, catering to unique or exceptional situations.
- Control: Enhances user control over security procedures, allowing for precise and compliant updates.
- Efficiency: Streamlines the process for managing air security status, particularly in regions where manual confirmation is a legal requirement.
- Transparency: Clear documentation and manual input capabilities support audit trails and accountability.

CO₂ Emissions report available as mail attachment for invoices
The CarbonCare emission report can be configured in the debtor role of a partner. It will then be available as an email attachment for the invoice. This makes it even easier for the customer to meet the company's CO₂ targets, as relevant data is automatically provided and integrated into the invoicing process.

Accounts Payable Import
The accounts payable import application has been revised in this Scope release regarding existing and future e-invoicing obligations in Europe.
The import function now offers clear advantages with support for two new e-invoice formats:
- UN/CEFACT Cross-Industry Invoice (CII) format
- ZUGFeRD/Factur-X e-invoices: ZUGFeRD and the virtually identical French format Factur-X embed the machine-readable UN/CEFACT CII e-invoices within user-friendly PDF's.
