The bookings diary shows you a booking overview, it also allows you to add new bookings and mark out times when bookings are not allowed.
When you open the DIARY option you will be presented with the following screen.
The style of this page is similar to an Outlook Calendar and can be viewed by day, week or month and for warehouse operators looking at future bookings there is a detailed timeline/agenda view.
The weekly view gives booking reference, transport and up to 3 purchase order numbers, if there are any additional purchase order numbers the booking will show ….. and booking will need to be opened to view these.
The monthly view will show everything over the calendar month.
Available Options
3PL Collections - off by default but this will show any orders marked as collect from the warehouse.
Manifests - off by default, when switched on this will show manifest collection times as specified on the distribution system (load times)
