Logistics

Hello Gurtam

Our clients are very happy with progresses you have made in very short time frame, but looks like there is still room for some improvements. Here are some client’s recommendations for improving Wialon Logistics from this week clients meetings.

1. Is it drop or pickup – that would clarify it for the driver if that information is displayed with every order. Helps also if car can take only 1000 kg and first pickup is 1000 kg and drop offs are 100 kg to every client. Currently adding pickup 1000 kg and can’t add more drop offs, because system thinks that car is already full and thinks we try to add some more orders. Actually they are drop offs.

2. Every client saying that it’s not paperless logistics until it has signature option. Picture attached were it should be. Currently they still have to give driver paper were client can give signature.

3. Sometimes client have to load truck for safety reasons so that order number 7 will be delivered first. If that happens, they need the rest of the delivery times to be recalculated, so they will see the actual arrival and can inform clients if they call in. It’s basically like Google Maps if you make wrong turn, then it recalculates the routing and estimated arrival time.

4. Next client seed that they upload orders in the morning. Truck starts the round, but after 2-3 delivery the client number 20 calls and updates order amount to 200 kg instead of 100 kg. Now the logistics needs the option to change order so the driver will give client the correct amount. Usually car carry’s extra for those events. Currently amounts are locked after routs are sent to driver. Client needs the editing option.

Hi ,

It would be great if we can control user access to  "settings" tab on logistics app. Right now I see only two options -
Create Edit and Delete order
View order
One of our clients does not want his logistics officer who creates orders to go and play with settings in logistics app.

Please consider the following features for upgrading Wialon Logistics App and ROUTES in Wialon System.
1. Same order number should be considered as one order in the reports. Some customer orders have several drops off locations. Same order with many places.
2. Reports should count orders of the same number as one. Users want to see mileage versus client order, regardless of drop off locations.
3. Time from & Time to should be a drop down calendar to allow the user select the date and time including future dates.
4. Selection of unit name should have a filter. The client has more than 700 delivery vehicles. Finding the unit name amongst so many is tedious.
5. Logistics APP should import ROUTES from the Wialon Monitoring system. It should allow grouping routes and geo fences.
6. Logistics APP should import CHECK POINTS and Delivery Geo Fences from the Wialon Monitoring system.
7. Logistics APP should export reports or data to report tempates of the Wialon Monitoring System with 2-way integration.
8. Off loading time should be calculated automatically once time from and time to fields have drop down calendar to select time at check point or delivery geofence. Offloading time should be optional. Sometimes dispatcher does not know how long offloading time will be.
9. Some drivers violate check points and do not stop. The mileage report (for tables rounds & orders) should give mileage regardless of non stop.
10. Printing Rounds - The Wialon routes should have an option to PRINT rounds created.
11. SMS message sent to driver upon creation of a round.
12. Reports in Wialon Logistics Apps should bind unit groups.

If I understand correctly Wialon Logistics can also be used/function as a tracker much like GPS Tag.

Am I correct in understanding that this is currently only available for iOS but not Android?

If so when will this capability be available for Android?

Thanks.

Hi yami,

So to confirm, tracking function is only capable for use when used in conjunction with WiaTag for both iOS and Android platforms correct. (But not available with GPS Tag)?

Only wishing to confirm as we have a number of clients currently using GPS Tag and we are looking to provide them with use of Wialon Logistics.

Thanks.

PRINTING SCHEDULES / PRINTING ROUNDS

Hi Support,
Could we have an enhancement to allow dispatchers print our rounds indicating to the driver the schedule for arrival and departure from check points. Some drivers are not tech savvy and cannot use smartphones, meaning that we have to give them print outs on paper.

In you case you can use:
- Gpstag as tracker.
- Logistics client for orders control. Driver (courier) must be assigned on unit associated with Gpstag. Both applications must be running on smartphone.

Thanks for your feedback.
Yes, add this column.

Hi Gurtam ,
It would be cool if Logistics app can have the option Proof of delivery Signature along with a comment.

Thank you

Sounds good .
When rejecting an order signature should not be must .

Dear,

I think it would be important to have a detail that contains information of the order, for example an order of drinks can be composed of several products example, Order1: 2 soda cocacola, 1 Sprite, 10 Redbull, etc.

Greetings Cordailes,

Thanks for your proposal.
Now such information can be stored in the "Comment" field. http://joxi.ru/eAORw6JtO9vl2o
