Managing Freight Has Never Been So Easy

3PL Systems has just released the second installment of software updates for 2010. The focus of this release is to improve efficiency for the most popular pages on our program, which include the order entry page and our tracking pages. We have also improved our contract management tool by adding pricing programs for sales reps to easily assign shipping rates to prospects and customers.

Enter a Shipment with Less Effort
The order entry page has been updated to add new functionality and a updated look to BrokerWare. Some items have been moved to more logical locations to further streamline the order entry process. Here are a few highlights:
-Address searching has become more dynamic and updates as you type.
-Multiple stops can be added before creating the shipment.
-The Full Form and Short form are linked with tabs and synchronize information between them.
-A new Map tab has been added that allows you to preview a route on the map.
-Product Selection has become more dynamic and updates as you type.
-Supplemental Charges show only the top 20 charges used by the specific customer making the list easier to work with.

Tracking Pages....More Content Without Sacrificing Space
Out with the old and in with the new! All the shipment tracking pages have been updated, so the pages are easier to read and show more dynamic content.

The default view shows less information but when expanding the row much more information and functionality is available without having to leave the page. You are now able to add notes and post updates without having to open any popup windows. This means you do not have to refresh the page every time you make an update. The page will then dynamically update the colors on the left to show you when other people have updated the shipment.

We have also added the ability to dispatch multiple shipments at once. For shipments that are dispatched outside the system this option will save some time.

Setup Pricing Programs for Customers & Prospects
Pricing Programs are a new feature for BrokerWare. A pricing program is designed to group tariffs together and allow them to be managed as a group. This means that you can add and remove an entire pricing program from a customer or prospect without having to deal with individual tariffs
