Manage your deliveries from time of order to time of delivery
The Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module is developed entirely
by Omni Accounts and provides the ability to control the delivery of orders to customers
by a fleet of vehicles.
Sales Orders can be drawn onto a load, either individually or as a group. Once this
process has been completed, the system will automatically calculate whether or not
the vehicle is overloaded, and if not, will list the load as Prepared.

Optimise your order picking
A loading sheet can be printed for a load, showing a list of customers to which
to deliver and a list of stock items to be loaded.

Optimise your Vehicle Loads
Apart from controlling the logistics involved in the distribution of products, Omni
Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module also provides for managing the
loading of the vehicle being used, in terms of both vehicle dimensions and carrying
capacity. Vehicles can be created with their load capacities in weight as well as
volume within Omni Accounts. A list of drivers can also be created.
When the load is added to a particular vehicle, the system will, through a process
of comparing the dimensions and weight of the stock being loaded, to the carrying
capacity of the vehicle, warn you in the event that the vehicle becomes overloaded.
At this point the user will be given the option to either reduce the load or transfer
it to another vehicle with a higher load capacity.
Once all the orders have been loaded onto the vehicle, they can be converted into
Tax Invoices at which point Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module
will flag the load as ready to leave.

Optimise your Vehicle Routes
Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module also provides the ability
to configure routes to which customers can be attached. At the time of loading a
vehicle, the Load Controller and Logistics Manager has the option of drawing those
Sales Orders which have been made by customers onto a particular route.
It also enables you to define the order in which deliveries to customers on a particular
route are made. The order in which the deliveries are to be made will appear on
the Trip Sheet. If there are Sales Orders for customers who are not on a specific
route, they will appear grouped at the bottom of the Trip Sheet.

The Load Controller or Logistics Manager can check each order for a POD, and where
one appears the order is flagged as 'Cleared'.

a claim, The Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module can provide for
these claims through a claims function.

COD customers
Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module is perfectly suited to managing
deliveries to COD Customers. Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and Distribution Module
gives you the ability to list outstanding COD Invoices per load and ensure that
all collections are concluded before clearing and closing the load. Stock earmarked
for incidental customers whom the driver may come across while making the deliveries
can also be controlled.

In the event that orders return undelivered, The Omni Accounts Vehicle Loading and
Distribution Module, provides for their clearing and transfer to another load.
After this has been completed, the load can be cleared. The load cannot be edited
further.
