What are challenges associated with electronic bills of lading?
There are a few challenges associated with electronic bills of lading. One challenge is that not all countries have adopted this technology yet, so there may be some confusion when dealing with international shipments.
Another challenge is that some companies may not be comfortable with trusting such an important document to an electronic system. There is also the potential for technical difficulties, such as if the system crashes or there is a power outage.
