Advanced Shipping Notice

Suppliers send an advance shipping notice (ASN) to let the receiver know exactly what’s on its way. It’s a heads-up for your team that makes order fulfillment smoother and your supply chain more efficient. 

Tip from the pros: A good ASN should feature (so employees are not left guessing like they’re opening a mystery box):

  • Packaging instructions or special handling notes
  • Purchase order number
  • Product details and quantities
  • Expected delivery date and time
  • Carrier and tracking information
