Preventative advice
Do you use the Incoterms (different varieties) most practical for you, also in your transport documents? The logistic chain has many links with just as many agreements that you a a trading party cannot and need not always keep track of them. If you regulate your affairs properly in advance, it can prevent unnecessary costs, delays and disputes in the (near) future.
