Sale confirmed, registration request sent, three days later the licence plate is in the ERP – with nobody chasing anyone.

The problem

Heavy machines ship on trailers, and every trailer needs a valid licence plate before it can leave the yard. Licensing was manual work through the registration office, with staff chasing responses by phone and email for days after each sale.

The solution

1. The sale confirmation in the ERP is the trigger.
2. The Form Engine assembles the data the registration authority requires, MailOut sends it off.
3. After three days, Lasernet picks up the registration authority's reply, reads it and extracts the metadata – above all the issued licence plate.
4. Via REST coupling, the ERP record is updated automatically.
5. MailOut informs everyone involved that the trailer may roll.

What it delivered

Licensing moved from days of follow-up to a process that runs on its own once the sale is booked. Nobody re-types plate numbers, and shipping is no longer held up waiting for someone to check an inbox.
