Workflows & examples
1. Dispatch a day’s deliveries
- Confirmed delivery orders arrive from Sales with stock released via goods issue.
- In Logistics → Routes, group them by area and order the stops manually.
- Assign a carrier or driver and dispatch; track progress in Shipments until proof of delivery.
2. Resolve a failed delivery
- A driver records a delivery exception on a shipment.
- The Logistics Coordinator flags it; you reschedule or reroute.
- If the customer refuses it, create a Return; restocking is done manually in Inventory.
3. Rebalance carriers
- Open Logistics → Reports and compare carriers on on-time rate and cost.
- Identify a carrier breaching SLAs or costing more per shipment.
- Route future volume to better performers.
