September 05, 2019 - New features and improvements

Freight transport - Road

• We have improved the function to create Non-freight related (NFR) route for the truck tractor driver.
• Previously, when the last Stop of the previous shipment is not the same as the first Stop of the next requested shipment, a NFR request will be automatically created and sent to the General control system. When the dispatcher on General control system accepts the NFR request, the NFR route will be generated on the Mobile app
• But now, the NFR route will be generated on the Mobile app right when the truck tractor driver requests the next shipment. However, the truck tractor driver will not be able to perform the NFR route until the NFR request is accepted on the General control system

Freight transport - Sea barge

New feature: Added Barge Plan and Gathering Plan dashboards

• We have deployed Barge Plan and Gathering Plan dashboards

Improve function to request changing Estimated Arrival Date

• We have fixed a bug in which the indicator on the Requesting shipments button doesn't automatically refresh and show the most recent quantity of shipments being requested to change Estimated Arrival Date
• After the request has been either approved or declined, a notification will also be sent to the Mobile app

VRP model

New feature:

Added Pickling list export function

• In the Route optimization screen, on the Timeline panel, click on the icon next to Vehicles text, then click on Export Picking List text

Added FTP servers synchronization function

• In the past, the feature to synchronize data with other ERP systems is proprietary. However, from now on, more client can have access to this feature, through the integration with FTP severs. Clients will be able to:
• Pull data of customers and orders from FTP servers
• Push data of optimized route to FTP servers

Added Odd-Even Traffic policy

• We have integrated the Odd-Even Traffic policy to the Road Constraint function

Added Loading/Unloading time by volume feature

• Loading/Unloading time by volume feature is added, can be used interchangeably with the already existing Loading/Unloading time by weight feature
• Please read the instruction in this article: Actual Loading/Unloading time calculation

Improvements

Orders and Routes statistics dashboard

• In the VRP model, we have improved the Orders and Routes Dashboard. In the past, only the data of Orders and Routes for the current date was gathered. We have added the statistics for the month up to date, right below the current date's data

Clustering feature

• The Clustering configuration has been improved to minimize overlapping routes
