Efficiently planning and scheduling transports

easyTrack’s innovative functions ensure efficient transport management and optimal routes. Empty runs are avoided and vehicle capacity utilisation is significantly improved, thus streamlining costs across the entire logistics chain.

Integrating intelligent, interactive planning tools in SAP creates transparency and planning certainty to master the constantly growing challenges of logistics optimisation. Dispatchers can manage planning processes quickly and efficiently in SAP with the aid of interactive map-based scheduling, tools for calculating distances and transport times for HGVs, and other effective planning methods.

Deeply integrated in the SAP logistics process, the route planning and scheduling add-on can be used to schedule deliveries, client orders, stock transfer orders, returns, and other SAP documents. As an option, intelligent stop scheduling gives dispatchers a cumulative overview of the respective delivery points for their planning.

An overview map, which can also be displayed on an additional monitor, helps to identify correlations for better planning. Shipping points (depots), planned tours and unscheduled stops are shown on this map according to various criteria. Unscheduled stops, for instance, can be easily combined to a tour using the “lasso” feature or assigned to an already existing tour. The ensuing calculation/optimisation takes into account any defined parameters, threshold values and restrictions, such as the clients’ opening hours, vehicle capacities, or the maximum length of tour.
