Delivery notes (filled packaging)

A goods issued Packaging Delivery Note in LES enables Volvo Group Production Logistics (VGPL) to monitor the flow of Packaging.​

Every physical movement of V-EMB must be registered as a delivery note in LES, with Goods Issue performed on date of dispatch.​

Failure to register a movement will result in inaccurate stock balances for both the sender and receiver within the system. This discrepancy can lead to unnecessary invoicing, as well as the reduction or blocking of new empty packaging orders, potentially disrupting the supply chain.

Registration of Delivery Notes:

There are three ways a delivery note can be registered in LES:

1. Manual registration by user on LES Supply Chain Packaging Web Portal (usually reached via Volvo Group Supplier Portal). See instruction of manual registration here:
2. Automatic bookings via EDI data communication. EDI approval is individually decided in agreement with VGPL. (EDI reference in "External Delivery ID" in Transaction History)
3. Automatic bookings via Packaging Consumption (connected to ShipIT). Connection to Packaging Consumption is individually decided in agreement with VGPL. (TBR number in "External Delivery ID" in Transaction History)

Why don’t I see the receiver in LES Web Portal dropdown list?

Only receivers that are approved for your account are available in the dropdown list.

Are you trying to register packaging to Volvo Group receiver that is not available to you in LES?

• Then you need to contact your packaging engineer at the receiving Volvo plant and ask them to create a NII case for you.

Are you trying to register packaging to a non-Volvo Group receiver that is not available to you in LES? 

• If receiver located in EMEA region, place a Ticket to Packaging and Request flow non-Volvo. You will receive information if the flow is approved or not.
• If receiver located in other region, contact your regional support function. Contact Us

Missing goods receipt empty packaging

If a delivery note is created in LES for a return shipment of empty packaging but the delivery note has not been actively goods receipt by the receiving terminal, then the delivery note will be labeled as "missing goods receipt". 

If you are contacted due to your delivery note being missing goods receipt then please get in contact with your carrier/forwarder and ask them for the POD (Proof Of Delivery).  

It must be stamped/signed by the receiving packaging terminal and sent back in the ticket we have created. 

The Delivery note will be cancelled on the stated date if no POD (Proof Of Delivery) is provided in the ticket, in time. This means that the quantities will be added back to your system stock. 

Missing goods issue

You need to perform “Goods Issue” for all Deliveries that you create, otherwise it will affect your stock balance and stock hire cost.

Please perform “Goods Issue” or “Delete” the Delivery if it is not correct.  

Follow the instructions below:  

1. Outgoing --> Send --> Search delivery list -->Mark delivery & select View Delivery 

       2. Perform “Goods Issue” or “Delete” the delivery.
