A declaration can be lodged for a consignment by opening the details page for the consignment and then selecting the appropriate option from the Declaration menu as shown in the image below.
Select 'Lodge Original' to create a new declaration and then submit it to TSW.
Or select 'Lodge Amendment' to amend an existing declaration.
Invoices that are entered against the consignment via the Invoices tab will be used to construct the line information for the declaration.
Where multiple declaration lines are needed it is necessary to enter at least one invoice prior to lodging the declaration and the invoice lines are where you must provide a classification for the goods.

The invoice section of the page is only displayed when no invoices are already available for the consignment. Otherwise this section will be omitted, as shown in the second image below.
