The clients represent external destinations and they are involved in outbound external transfers.


In the Serialized Logistics application:

  • You can register and manage your clients.
  • You can establish a partnership with a client in Movilitas.Cloud.


When connecting to BPOM, all the shipping locations saved as clients on the BPOM channel settings page are automatically imported into the Serialized Logistics application. You may need to reorganize the address data after the import.


When sending an IDOC Delvry to Movilitas.Cloud from SAP ICH or uploading an IDOC Delvry on the SAP ICH channel, the client master data and the delivery address are automatically created in the Serialized Logistics application. However, you still need to perform some manual actions to complete the client configuration:

  • (Required) Provide the SGLN (location data).
  • (Optional) Set a special flag to use the delivery address GLN as the receiver in the outbound DSCSA EPCIS file.

Establishing a Partnership with a Client in Movilitas.Cloud


By establishing a partnership in Movilitas.Cloud, the supplier and the client are integrated within Movilitas.Cloud with their customized views and functions. The partnership enables the supplier and the client to exchange data in an efficient, controlled, and secure manner.


You can invite a client to be a partner in Movilitas.Cloud by providing the contact email address.

  • If the client does not have a tenant in Movilitas.Cloud, the client registers a tenant. Depending on the payment model, the client becomes a full-paying customer in Movilitas.Cloud or the supplier that sent the invitation pays the invoices and the client is in "Partner" mode. Then, the client accepts the invitation and gets access to the Serialized Logistics application in a customized view.
  • If the client already has a tenant in Movilitas.Cloud, the client reviews the partner request, accepts the invitation, and gets access to the Serialized Logistics application in a customized view.
