- Restricted Party Screening helps users screen the parties to a transaction against 40 different lists to determine whether a company or individual has been sanctioned for making illegal transshipments, violating import or export regulations, or performing illegal acts.
- Product Classification helps users classify products in over 120 countries. This includes the Harmonized Schedule (HS), export control numbers (ECN) and Schedule B classification systems. In addition, users can also map a classification from one country to another and perform complex classifications for commodities such as watches, sets, and ores.
- Landed Cost helps users calculate landed cost for an import or export transaction, including all duties, taxes, customs fees, port charges and other governmental charges. Many companies use this module to make more informed sourcing decisions and/or quote more accurate pricing to foreign buyers.
