      <Paragraph>A delivery note is a transport document that provides
		information on a consignment contained in one truck (or other vehicle) and
		refers to an order or a set of orders for one consignee at a delivery address.
		If the truck load contains shipments for various business partners, the load
		includes more than one delivery note.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>The information on a delivery note includes the delivery date
		and address, the customer's name, the contents of the consignment, and so on.
		In Italy, a delivery note is a legally required document, where it used to be
		called BAM (Bolla Accompagnamento Merci). Currently it is called DDT (Documento
		di Trasporto). In Portugal and Spain delivery notes are also used, but there
		they do not have the same legal status as in Italy.</Paragraph>
