Deliveries, runs and vehicles
The consignments, runs, loading, vehicles and couriers that take a confirmed order to the door.
Demonstration data
Why and how
- Why
- A promised delivery date is only useful if the day, the van and the proof all hold.
- How
- Deliveries come from orders, runs sequence the stops, and every scan writes a trace event.
What is in it
Vehicles
Vans with capacity, rates, MOT and service dates, and days off the road.
Route's Vehicles screen: three demonstration vehicles, one with its MOT due within thirty days and one off the road today for a service.
Demonstration data
Deliveries
Every consignment with its promised window, packages, state, tracking and delivery cost.
Runs
One vehicle's day of stops, sequenced, with straight line distance and arrival times.
Loading
Scan each package aboard, last drop first; the missing count stays until zero.
Couriers
Carrier accounts, what each carries and costs, and tracking links where you set one.
The parts it hosts
- TraceabilityA code on every delivery and package, with load and delivery events, signature and photographs, and the courier's consignment number as an alias
- MonitoringDelivery late: a set number of minutes past the close of the delivery window with nothing delivered, checked every fifteen minutes
- DocumentsQuotes, orders, dockets, drawings, work orders, labels and attachments, templated and branded
- Customer facingDelivery windows, tracking and the signature as proof of delivery, on your own customer surface
- CostingCost against a product, against time, against machines, against stock and formulas, everywhere a margin needs to be real
- ActivityDelivery completed is recorded with a trace event carrying the signature and who signed, and fires a signed webhook

Questions
- They are for a workspace that runs its own vans, and appear once own transport is switched on for it, which we do on request. Carrier deliveries work without them.
- No. Planned distance is a straight line; actual kilometres come from the odometer when the run closes.
