The Microsoft Dynamics AX solution for your transportation management

The efficient planning, execution and billing of transportation poses a daily challenge for companies. With Sycor.TransportationManagement, you increase customer satisfaction and unlock new cost reduction opportunities.

With Sycor.TransportationManagement (STM) based on Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 (formerly Axapta), we have developed the optimal, secure, high-performance software to solve transportation problems. You benefit both from the full integration of STM in the standard Microsoft Dynamics AX software and from the logistics and geographical components we use. The certification "tested/verified" by Microsoft indicates the high quality and functionality of our solution.

Integration with Microsoft Dynamics AX ensures optimum performance, high scalability, security of investment and last but not least, data security. Because as a fully integrated module, Sycor.TransportationManagement uses the ERP system database for transport planning, therefore doing without importing and exporting data and thus reducing the potential for errors. The scheduler is at the centre of transportation planning: easy to use functions, a clear graphical implementation and comprehensive availability of information allow for fast, optimal utilization of the fleet and the related personnel. Automotive rentals can also be processed through STM. The following parameters can be considered during planning: driving and rest periods, remaining shift and driving times, suitable delivery dates and time slots, loading and unloading times, vehicle restrictions such as load capacity and necessary qualifications, hazardous goods and last but not least the individual qualifications of the personnel.

Transportation planning is simplified through graphical support for the parallel scheduling of multiple routes as well as route optimization directly in Microsoft Dynamics AX using the integrated map. The route planning is based on components with highly accurate and high-resolution maps. Freely definable icons (with status color-coding) for the transported goods make the job even easier. The exact calculation of transportation costs with road-pricing not only ensures control of your own costs, but also improves transparency of customer billing. This leads to greater customer satisfaction, especially when delivery dates and time slots are also met.
