consejo de envío

English translation: delivery notice/notification

09:17 Feb 23, 2021

Spanish to English translations [PRO] Bus/Financial - Accounting / e-Billing, e-Commerce, Orders
Spanish term or phrase: consejo de envío SPAIN. This is from a Spanish e-billing software guide. In the context, it refers to a shipping/despatch advice/note (DESADV), and "consejo" here looks like an erroneous back translation from English of "advice". In Google searches, it turns up in contexts where I would translate it as "Tips" when sending/shipping. So, basically, what I am wondering is whether there are any Spanish-speaking countries that would use "consejo de envío" instead of "aviso" (de expedición/envío), which is the term I would usually expect to see.

neilmac Spain ASKER @Luis 10:57 Feb 24, 2021  Thanks for the confirmation. I suppose I should really have posted the query in ES-ES, because I'm not looking for a translation, but rather confirmation of an erroneous back translation from English (advice / consejo). Thanks again to everyone who commented on this one. Luis M. Sosa Ecuador @Neil 14:17 Feb 23, 2021  No one uses such term. In my experiencie in logistics 'alerta de envío' is used, but 'consejo' makes no sense at all. neilmac Spain ASKER @Emiliano 12:51 Feb 23, 2021  Thanks for the confirmation! This client is particularly prone to this - getting people who are almost bilingual -but NOT professional translators - to translate things like this. I have a list of at least 40 items like this, for example "butt (barrica/barril/tonel) translated as "culo"... :/ Emiliano Pantoja Spain 10:44 Feb 23, 2021  Never heard that before, I think it's a bad translation too "Aviso de entrega" neilmac Spain ASKER @Matt 10:36 Feb 23, 2021  Yes, that is another option. However, I'm not looking for the translation here, but confirmation of whether some Spanish countries might use "consejo de envío", which I think may be an erroneous back translation from English (advice = consejo, tip/s). neilmac Spain ASKER @Emiliano 10:34 Feb 23, 2021  What I really want to know is if there are any Spanish-speaking countries that would use "consejo de envío" instead of "aviso de envío", which is the form that I'd usually expect to see in this case. The English translation is despatch advice or shipping note or shipment advice, as you say, but that's not really what I'm asking here. Emiliano Pantoja Spain 09:58 Feb 23, 2021  Shipment Advice matt robinson Spain 09:20 Feb 23, 2021  Wouldn't it be "advice note"? https://dictionary.cambridge.org/es/diccionario/ingles/advic...

Notes to answerer Asker: The actual question is whether "consejo de envío" is ever used as a synonym of "aviso de envío", nd apparently the answer is "no"...
