IDP Software for Logistics: Automate Delivery Notes (DDT), Packing Lists and CMR

Delivery notes (DDT), packing lists, proofs of delivery and CMR waybills go into your warehouse system without being retyped: your team only checks the discrepancies that get flagged.

This solution is part of Data Alchemy, the IDP (Intelligent Document Processing: automated reading of documents with AI) platform that captures, extracts and validates data from your documents and writes it straight into your ERP.

Why Choose IDP Software for Logistics

Manual handling of transport documents — delivery notes (DDT), packing lists, proof of delivery and CMR waybills — slows down warehouse operations, delays goods receiving and generates costly reconciliation errors. Unlike template-based OCR, IDP solutions for logistics use a dedicated AI model per document type that reads any supplier layout with zero templates, extracts every field with 99.8% accuracy (measured with Claude) — with Claude Sonnet or higher, reading takes on average around 12 seconds for a one-page document and around 18 seconds for two pages — and posts the record straight into your ERP or WMS:

  • ✓Elimination of manual data entry: DDT, packing lists and CMR are read and registered automatically
  • ✓Direct ERP integration: extracted data flows into SAP, Zucchetti, TeamSystem and other ERPs
  • ✓Full traceability: every document is archived and searchable with modification history
  • ✓Error reduction: automatic validation against master data eliminates discrepancies and disputes

Italian SMEs using Data Alchemy cut the operational time of goods registration by 60%, freeing resources for higher value activities.

How DDT Automation Works with Data Alchemy

The document automation process for logistics with Data Alchemy consists of four phases:

  1. 01

    Automatic Document Acquisition

    DDT, packing lists and waybills arrive via email, scanner or direct upload. For email, the Mail service installed at your premises sends Data Alchemy the messages matching the delivery note model.

  2. 02

    Data Extraction with AI

    Artificial intelligence reads documents in any format (PDF, scan, Excel, image) and extracts all fields: supplier, items, quantities, batches, expiry dates.

  3. 03

    Automatic Validation

    Extracted data is compared against ERP master data: item codes, authorised suppliers, open orders. Discrepancies are flagged immediately.

  4. 04

    ERP Registration

    Validated data flows automatically into SAP, Zucchetti, TeamSystem or other ERPs, creating stock movements without manual intervention.

Native Integration with Major WMS and Warehouse Management Systems

Data Alchemy integrates natively with the WMS (Warehouse Management Systems) and ERP platforms most used by Italian SMEs: SAP Business One and SAP S/4HANA, Zucchetti Ad Hoc and Zucchetti Infinity, TeamSystem Enterprise, Gamma and Alyante, Mexal, Business Cube, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Oracle NetSuite. Integration runs through the AI agent installed at your premises (a database, CSV, JSON or TXT files, or APIs) or through Data Alchemy's REST API and signed webhooks (HMAC SHA-256), so data extracted from delivery notes, packing lists and CMR waybills flows automatically into your warehouse management system without custom development. With the AI agent, initial setup takes 2–5 working days without custom integrations, including configuration and operator training.

An IDP software like Data Alchemy automatically reads DDT shipping documents in any format — PDF, scan, email — and extracts supplier, items, quantities, and order references. The data is then entered directly into the warehouse management system, eliminating manual data entry and cutting the operational time of goods receiving by 60%.
Data Alchemy processes DDT shipping documents, incoming and outgoing invoices, customer orders, packing lists, delivery notes, CMR waybills, credit notes, bank statements, F24 tax forms, quotes, contracts, and supplier price lists. It accepts PDF, Excel, Word, email, scanned images, and XML formats (including Italy's electronic invoicing standard).
Data Alchemy monitors configured email inboxes (or specific folders), automatically identifies emails containing document attachments (orders, DDT, invoices), extracts data from both the email body and PDF/Excel attachments, and enters it into your management system. The process is fully automatic and starts as soon as the document arrives. The Business and Enterprise licences also include the Mail service, installed on-premise on your company's own mailbox: emails matching a model (invoices, orders, delivery notes) are sent or forwarded to Data Alchemy for processing.
