Interface - EECD (EU)

The Electronic European Cleaning document also known as eECD, is not created to replace the purchase and use of the Paper ECD. However, it is created to limit the option to process wrong information. With the cloud platform you can see the complete chain of the company, transport, cleaning and loading of a container, which can have long-term benefits or even immediate effect. 

It can keep the integrity of the data, since wrong information in the chemical industry can have a huge effect on safety for your employees and human life. 

Furthermore, in the process on the work floor it can have a positive effect. The data entered on a order is automatically updated to the eECD, when it is connected. The signature of the employee can be processed via Depot for Mobile or via Depot software to the eECD. Which again automatically updated in the cloud. 

When the driver comes to pick up the container, he can go directly to the Depot Driver Kiosk to enter his information and signature, which is then again saved and a Paper eECD is printed. This will save time at the reception desk. 

The difference between the ECD and eECD is not that it is paperless, because in the end a paper document is still printed. The normal ECD has a pre-printed number on specific paper. 

The eECD is digital and removes the need of a certificate with this preprinted number. However due to restrictions some tank containers require to be traveling with a paper trail, therefore it is possible to have a paper eECD, created from the cloud eECD.
