Consolidating Deliveries
Step 1: In your Open Deliveries Tab you will be able to access all your open Deliveries.
Step 2: Click on Consolidate to access all orders that are going to the same address or customer and can be grouped.
Step 3: Filter through the open deliveries that are eligible for consolidation by choosing the destination and the type of transport. Orders that have the same delivery address will appear as available for consolidation.
Step 4: Select orders you wish to consolidate.
Step 5: Assign a name to the consolidated unit, and select the mode of transport for the consolidated unit, and click Consolidate.
Holocene now treats the delivery as one tracking unit:
It combines the value of the delivery,
Treats items in warehouse and packaging as a combined unit.
It even allows for load planning optimization.
Planning Consolidated Loads
Step 6: Delivery Management. The trade layer automation applies to the consolidated delivery, automatically assigning the correct workflow and documents, such as transport documents or packing lists, to a unique delivery combining all orders.
Step 7: Load Planning
By treating the delivery as one unit, combining the different packaging units, Holocene allows planning consolidation directly at the Warehouse at pallet level.
Based on this, it even allows your logistics team to organize and plan your container load, so you can make the best decision on logistics in real-time.
Step 7: Once the delivery has been processed and the appropriate documents added as per trade lane, click Dispatch Delivery to track the consolidated orders as one delivery unit.
The system tracks the delivery as one specific unit, keeping track of the consolidated orders as one delivery unit.
