Shippers, freight forwarders, and warehouse operators use the Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN) to prepare goods receipt in an organised way: the sender transmits structured data – delivery date, time window, article numbers, batch numbers, and quantities – before the physical shipment arrives, allowing the consignee to allocate dock slots, storage space, and staff precisely.
