Daily Route Maintenance

WoodPro helps you efficiently use your resources (drivers and vehicles) by enabling you to set up the details of these resources and standard routes (areas and days/dates). It takes the time-consuming, yet important, task of generating the loads (routes/delivery dates) to which orders can be allocated to. Users can easily produce shipping documentations, calculate and spread freight and other costs across multiple orders, including drop charges and fuel surcharges.


Daily Route Maintenance

The Daily Route Maintenance assists the shipper with truckload assembling that are based on the weight of the orders and the maximum truck capacity.  Orders are organized for delivery according to their Delivery Zone. If the weight exceeds the truck maximum, it is displayed in red. The history contains a complete detail of the deliveries made, along with a direct link to the appropriate Bill of Lading.
