Step four

Getting it out of the office

The planner is not the person loading the truck. A plan only changes what happens in the yard if it arrives there in a form the crew can act on without interpreting it.

The output

What actually leaves the office

A plan becomes useful at the moment somebody outside the planning team can act on it. These are the formats it leaves in, and the ways it reaches a loading crew, a customer or a carrier — including the ones who will never have an account.

Step by Step instructions

When you are happy with your load plan, you can print it with step by step instructions - how to load the individual cargoes.

When you have lots of items, you can also group the instructions by a number, or by layer-by-layer

The interactive 3D view

Turn the container, search for one piece among hundreds, measure the gap between two items and check what is behind what — the view where a plan gets studied rather than glanced at.

Your document, not ours

A forwarder whose customer demands their own format does not want a Cargo-Planner PDF. The layout builder sets what the outgoing document contains and how it looks.

Share your load plan

With a click you can make the load plan shared, meaning you will get a link which you can share to your customers, clients or warehouse.

Build one plan and send yourself the output. The question worth answering is not whether the software makes a plan - it is whether the document that comes out is one you would put in front of a loading crew.
