French term or phrase: bordereaux d’expéditions

Shipping transport and logistics. This is obviously a voucher of some kind but I´m wondering if anyone is familiar with the term....

Le manutentionnaire crée les bordereaux d’expéditions qui doivent être signés par le chauffeur afin de transmettre au transporteur routier la responsabilité de la marchandise (infos clés : date et heure de sortie de stock de la marchandise). Ces bordereaux d’expéditions sont conservés par le manutentionnaire qui envoi une copie à XXX (preuve de départ des marchandises).

My Robert/Collins du Management also gives Dispatch/Consignment note, but those sound a bit weird to me.

Writeaway,
I could have sworn this was in my personal "shipping" glossary, but a KOG search turned up no results :)
