Chaîne documentaire

French to English Bus/Financial Law: Taxation & Customs
Hello,
THis comes from a document outlining a training course for international business procedures. Chaîne documentaire comes from a section named "Formation douane" and is in line b. I have found two translations ... "documentary transfer chain" and "information flow channel" but I'm not sure which, if any is appropriate in this context.
All help appreciated,
Anne

documentation chain

cf. DHL Logistics glossary:

"Transport chain

The transport chain is a result of technically and organizationally linked processes in which people, goods or data are moved from one site to another (DIN 30781).
Transport chains can have single or multiple links. In a single-link transport chain, the shipping and destination points are connected by an interrupted transport or direct transport without any change of the means of transport. In a multiple-link transport chain, on the other hand, a change of transport takes place while the shipment is being moved from the shipping point and the destination point. The organization of a transport chain for the goods flow must be supported by the organization of the corresponding *documentation chain* for the information flow."

Something that always comes up in this context, can we provide a "paper trail" linking the physical goods with the sale and import documents.
