The UNHRD hubs obtained the provision of Free Trade Zone facilities or alternatively of Customs Bonded Warehouse for the storage of the prepositioned stock on behalf of partners. To comply with the Customs requirement as a customs trusted entity, the UNHRDs are required to produce accurate stock inventories periodically or on-demand as a rule with Customs reference numbers for all the items in stock and to monitor Inbound and Outbound movements. Every hub benefits out of WINGS to maintain data related to Customs movements and provide periodical reports or when required. As of that, it is possible to track in WINGS-WMS all inbound shipments, from their receipt up to their dispatch, by a unique identification number (commonly called ‘Bill of Entry’ –BoE-, or ‘Import Declaration’, or ‘Customs Declaration number’) and by the associated Harmonized System (-HS code-).

Operating HRD business under Free-zone management in WINGS makes the Inbound Customs clearance hassle free very much faster and ease the preparation of Customs export processes thanks to the variety of warehouse data under the free-one management which includes Vendor’s batch, serial and chassis numbers, Partner's POs, HS codes & Country of Origin and improves the quality of reports to Partner and Customs authority. Recording of above information starts from inbound process thru the good receipt posting and it is granted by the management of materials thru batches, where the information are actually recorded:

Information is kept in the batches from items receipt, until the items remain recorded in WMS, when they are picked for dispatching and after dispatching. At outbound stage the import references as well as country of origin are listed on the Final Packing List/No commercial Invoice to comply with requirements from Customs to track the items also when they leave HRD warehouses/fee-zones managed by HRD:

The Free-zone data together with Vendor batch and Chassis/Serial numbers, have be included in different standard and customized reports available thru a dashboard called UNHRD BoE Dashboard which includes below reports:
