Additional Operations

Here are a few highlights of the many additional modules we have to support your company. You may be a larger company and need some of these modules now, or a smaller company on the grow. Either way, you need to know the software company you choose to partner with can be there as you grow. This section will confirm that we have the software it takes to support your growth, both now and in the future.

Interfaced to the Pegasus TransTech Imaging System, we provide the ability to do Rendition Printing. This means that as your invoices are printed, the backup documents previously scanned in, according to each customer’s needs, are printed with the invoice. Other interfaces include COLD (Computer Output to Laser Disk) printouts that get automatically indexed for you, and a Driver Settlement interface that automatically releases settlement for payment after the required documents are scanned into the system.

Any document that can be printed can be faxed directly from Freight-Link without the necessity of printing the document and putting it through the fax machine. Includes software, fax modem and cable.

This module will allow your customers to dial into your system (with restricted access) to trace their own shipments.

Allows your computer to electronically exchange data with other computers. Many EDI transaction sets are available, including the 204 (Shipment Information), the 210 (Billing Information), and the 214 (Shipment Status). Transmissions can be sent/received from a third party mailbox or directly from your customer.

Data Exchange allows you to import data into the Freight-Link System through a specified file format. This module is commonly used by Warehouse Distribution companies to import warehouse movements of freight that the transportation/logistics side needs to handle. Additionally, it is one of three ways to extract data from the Freight-Link System. (The other two are the Creative Query Report Writer and the Creative ODBC Interface.) In this case, the data is exported in a specified file format that can then be used to import into another system.

CQ is a menu-driven system that will allow you to create your own on-screen inquiries and printed reports on an ad hoc basis. It also provides the ability to transfer data files into a spreadsheet or word processor.

This module allows you to directly read the data you have built in the Freight-Link System by other products such as Word, Excel and Access.

The Container Depot module allows you to efficiently track incoming and outgoing equipment. T.I.R.’s are generated for you during the entry process. M&R reporting to the Steamship Lines and Billing for work done are included. Storage rates can also be set up per customer and billed.

CSC is tightly interfaced to the ACCUPLUS Warehousing System owned by LDS. Orders in the ACCUPLUS system are automatically fed into our Freight-Link system, thereby eliminating double entry of orders for warehousing companies with freight divisions. Accounting information is also updated to our Accounts Receivable and General Ledger, so one accounting system can be used.

This module provides you with the ability to track sales prospects by salesperson. It includes the ability to print a salesperson’s Daily Call List and track expenses vs. revenue by prospect.

The Leasing System enables you to lease trucks and trailers by daily, weekly and mileage rates. A Lease Agreement is printed after you enter the information on the lease. Invoices are cut on demand and updated to the accounting for you. Furthermore, Yard Checks can be entered into the system, along with the status of each piece of equipment.

This system can be used stand-alone or as an integrated piece to Dispatch. Pallet exchanges are entered coming out of and going into your customers that track pallets. A Reconciliation Report can be printed or viewed on the screen for customers as you receive their invoices. A Pallet Adjustment option can also be used to adjust the pallet balance after any negotiations are completed. A Customer History is retained, together with a history by Driver/Carrier and Trailer.
