No. It collects and checks certifications your suppliers give you. It checks that the nine data elements are there, not that the origin claim is correct, and it is not legal advice.
Each supplier gets an email naming your company with a link that needs no login. They upload a PDF, Word, Excel or CSV file up to 4 MB. You can also upload a file a supplier already emailed you.
It reminds them on day 7, 14 and 21, then stops and lists them as stalled in your Monday digest so you know whom to call.
A scanned PDF with no text, or a Word file, is not read automatically, so you tick the nine data elements and type the blanket period beside the file. Text PDFs, Excel and CSV files are read automatically, and you approve each one before it counts.
Approved certifications are kept five years from the day you approve them, the period in 19 CFR 182.15. Download the ZIP for any supplier at any time. If you cancel, everything is kept 30 days and then deleted, so download the ZIPs first.
