Dangerous Goods/Hazardous Goods declarations and Safety Sheet Information can now be printed from eCargo. DG items can be maintained with their associated hazardous goods details and assigned to consignments. For more information please contact info@ecargo.co.nz.


Newsletter2

Christmas Hours

The support desk will be open throughout the Christmas and New Year period during normal working hours (excluding public holidays). Your phone calls and emails should be answered within the usual timeframes, however if we're a bit slow please forgive us, we're probably just too full from plum pudding to get to the phone in time.


Upcoming Features and Improvements

Reverse Logistics

Managing returns can be a problematic task, particularly when it comes to having visibility over return consignments. A new feature in eCargo will allow you to create a return with a click of your mouse from the originating consignment, and then provide visibility over all your return consignments.

Invoice selected consignments

When it comes to invoicing consignments you can either invoice all 'Ready to be invoiced' consignments or narrow down by movement date via the Invoice Dashboard. A new feature on its way this side of Christmas will allow you to drill down into the consignments ready for invoicing and select the individual jobs you wish to invoice.


Did You Know..?

Total Row In Summary Screen

One of the new features in the recent Premium release was the addition of a Total row at the top of the Summary screen. Not only does this provide you with total number of deliveries in each status, it also lets you click on each of the totals to show you all these deliveries in the Details list. No more scrolling down the screen and selecting each individual customer site to view new jobs.
