If the LVS Shipment is the only thing being transported, the carrier can transmit the ACI eManifest with only the trip (conveyance) portion, and no ACI Shipments attached. Otherwise, the other shipments can be added and the manifest can be transmitted normally. At the border the ~~driver will require~~ the ~~LVS Consist paperwork in addition to the ACI eManifest lead sheet~~.
