Document Faq’s

Why do we have to complete trip reports?

Trip reports are the source of information for several accounting systems:
- Information regarding mileages, border crossings and highways is used to determine the fuel tax that our company must pay to each province and state that we travel through.
- Our payroll department use the reports to verify that drivers are being paid correctly for work they have completed.
- This is the form on which expense claims are submitted for reimbursement.

When do log books, trip reports, bills of lading and border documents have to be submitted to the office?

What is a Bill of Lading (BOL)?

A bill of lading is a type of document that is used to acknowledge the receipt of a shipment of goods. A transportation company or carrier typically issues this document to a shipper. In addition to acknowledging the receipt of goods, the document indicates the particular vessel on which the goods have been placed, their intended destination and the terms for transporting the shipment to its final destination. It also includes a description of the goods that are being shipped, the weight and the other shipping details.
This document along with the customer’s bills are critical for the company to get paid for the transportation of goods.

What is a POD?

POD is an acronym for “proof of delivery”. The proof of delivery generally includes the JBM and shipper’s BOL as well as the customer’s bills signed by the individual that has received the goods at destination.
It is the drivers responsibility to ensure the receiver has signed and dated the BOL and must legibly print the name of the individual that has signed for receipt of the goods.

What is Transflo Express?

Why do we use Transflo Express instead of faxing documents?

How do I use Transflo?

The driver hands his or her trip documents and our company’s cover sheet to a trained cashier.
The cashier scans the trip documents. For the typical trip, this takes less than a minute.
The cashier prints a confirmation, staples it to the trip documents and hands all paperwork back to the driver.
The scanned delivery documents are transmitted to Pegasus TransTech’s redundant data centers and delivered electronically to our office.
The documents are available to our corporate office personnel for immediate processing.

Where do I get Transflo lead sheets?
