Shipper TMS is a transportation management solution designed specifically for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, catering to manufacturers, distributors, retailers, wholesalers, and various shippers who utilize their own fleets, third-party carriers, or a combination of both. This application transforms sales, purchase, transfer, and certain posted documents from Business Central into Transport Requests, enabling planners to generate actionable Transport Orders. Dispatchers have the flexibility to organize from various perspectives, including a request pool, truck slot availability, driver schedules, or a visual timeline, while also ensuring the validation of capacity, compartments, time allocations, delivery windows, and any potential resource conflicts. They can calculate routes, distances, durations, and stop sequences using tools like Google Maps or Azure Maps and can compare rates from different carriers prior to making assignments. In addition to managing freight charges and cost distribution, Shipper TMS facilitates the creation of warehouse shipments and receipts, operational transport documents, and keeps a detailed execution history, along with proof-of-delivery attachments. Furthermore, it integrates with APIs and supports telematics scenarios through partnerships with providers such as Geotab, Samsara, and Webfleet, enhancing its functionality and user experience. Overall, Shipper TMS serves as a comprehensive tool for optimizing transportation management within the Dynamics 365 framework.
