What It Does


Stride Delivery BOL lets you create a Bill of Lading (BOL) document directly from an internal warehouse transfer or delivery. A BOL is a legally required document for freight shipments that details what is being shipped, by whom, to whom, and under what terms.

Where to Find It
- **Inventory → Operations → Transfers** → open an internal transfer → **Create BOL** button
