WISL Distribution Control Scenario
Shipment records are entered either by downloading from an Order Entry system, or through the Shipping Interface module.
Goods are consolidated into larger shipping units, such as crates, on the basis of date required, order types, volumes, etc. according to their destinations
Truckloads are modelled based on criteria such as number of stops, radius of stops allowed, crates per truckload, etc. Each potential truckload is evaluated to determine the most efficient and lowest cost distribution pattern.
Dock control chooses the actual trips and loading order from the modelled trips
All relevant labels, packing slips, bills of lading and trip documents are generated
Order/Shipment tracking and analytical report facilities are available at all points in the distribution control path
