Software optimizes shipment cycle

Voyager transportation planning and management (TPM) software integrated with Voyager WarehousePRO automates and optimizes the entire shipment cycle including planning, shipment execution and freight accounting.

After the TPM software optimizes orders into shipments and selects the best carrier, the shipment information, including orders and loading sequence, is communicated in real time to WarehousePRO for picking and staging. Actual shipment quantities and weight are then communicated back to the TPM so the shipment can be tracked, audited and paid. This approach provides users and trading partners with full visibility into the status of orders and shipments via the Internet.
