Transport Management
The effective management of transport operations is vital to an optimized Supply Chain. It requires efficient management of rail cars and/or trucks, loads, manifests/consignment notes and delivery routes.
In the current economic climate the control of expenses, particularly freight charges and fuel levies is essential to minimize costs and lower the overhead of the Supply Chain. When goods are transported, these expenses affect sales costs, and subsequently sales margin. Therefore, it is necessary to capture and allocate all transportation costs, to determine the sales margin of a particular item.
Scalable's Transport Management System (TMS) allows Distributors, Manufacturers and Retailers to optimize inventory levels in their warehouses and stores.
In addition, they need to take advantage of the fastest and least expensive shipping options. Transportation Management supports all inventory movements and shipments, from simple point-to-point to complex, multi-leg and cross-docking operations. Transport allows you to use a single interface that works across business units and geographies to keep goods moving through the supply chain.
Transport Managers can analyze inbound and outbound shipments including transfer ordersand plan loads based on origin and destination, and consolidate them. With multiple carriers potentially servicing the same delivery routes the transport management system allows you to select the least cost option for your delivery requirements.
TMS gives shipping and logistics personnel the tools they need inside of Dynamics AX to streamline transportation processes to ensure improved visibility of logistics and financial position in the Supply Chain.
