  • Execute based on real-time data, streamline resources
  • Optimize routing and reduce cost

  • Elimination of duplicate data entries
  • Cost reduction with automated carrier selection capabilities

My colleague entered an order but I cannot see an order to ship?

This is a permissions issue. For two users to see the same order, they must be assigned to the same project and vendor number (if applicable).

News | Feature Alert

The pick-pack-ship pages have been enhanced! They are now easier to use and boast some new functionality such as:

  • Temperature controlled items are now flagged in the Description of an item as Ambient, Refrigerated, or Frozen to assist with packaging or service selection requirements.
  • For items that are set to Auto-Pack, dimensions and weight are automatically filled out in the Pack step.
  • Service selection now relies on cost-based routing. The most cost-effective carrier and service are selected for the lane, based on the rates available in the system.
