Transportation & Distribution Manager is a Sage ERP Accpac add-on module designed to automate and facilitate routine daily tasks in any continuous processing and distributing business. In addition to automating daily tasks, this application also includes flexible inquiry tools, sales reports, MIS reports and process reports. There is also a very basic CRM module.

Transportation & Distribution Manager is integrated with the Sage ERP Accpac Order Entry module. The process starts by entering sales orders for customers. Based on sales order information, Transportation & Distribution Manager generates production reports that can be used as the basis for producing or purchasing products on a daily basis for consequent delivery to customers. Delivery routes can be defined with customers listed in each route in the most optimal order defined by driving conditions. Picking slips and drivers’ run sheets are produced to facilitate delivery of goods.

The whole application is optimized for efficient operation. For example, picking slips, drivers’ run sheets, invoices and adjustment notes (credit notes) are printed in the order in which goods are delivered to customers, making distribution of documents easy. Powerful inquiry screens make all information available at the click of a button. Drill-down possibilities are built in inquiry screens, so that user can see details of the originating transactions.
