Marcin,
If both Consignee and Notify are referred to by the *same* customer_id and both point to one and only one customer row, then you can use one dataset and one datasource. If the consignee might refer to one customer and the notify to another, then you need two sets.

If the first case applies, then you possibly have some undesirable redundancy in the documents table.
