Abstract

An internet based method and system for communicating terms and conditions of an issued export license to all parties (e.g., exporter, distributor, consignee) in a transaction. The system directs prescribed export related messages from the exporter to the parties. The messages include instructions to the recipients to take certain actions required by the export license terms, and directs those parties to report the results back to the exporter.
