🟢create_trade_documents(language, open_document, document, seller, buyer, ...)
Create a matching proforma invoice, commercial invoice, packing list and shipping instruction from one set of order data. Returns a link to Triplicate's free generator with everything filled in (the user reviews it and saves the PDF), plus totals (amount, cartons, net/gross weight, CBM) and checks (missing fields, HS code format, Incoterms freight/insurance consistency). Nothing is stored.
