Simple New Order

A key function of dispatch software is to expedite the order taking process.  As we were developing ConcreteGo, many of the dispatchers we talked to complained about the order entry process that other dispatch software solutions use.  The complaints were that there were too many steps involved and too many screens that had to be gone through in order to enter an order in these other systems. That is why we created the Simple New Order to speed the order entry process.

Everything you need to create a Simple New Order is on one screen.  In addition, you can set up scheduling defaults to further expedite the order.  Just because the process was simplified does not mean that the Simple New Order lacks robust features.  The Simple New Order makes full use of features that we've highlighted previously for the newsletter like the clickable Order Map that utilizes a point and click interface to find delivery addresses and the Travel Estimate feature that utilizes internet mapping and routing to estimate delivery time across a user defined grid that compensates for average truck speed and seasonal and local traffic patterns.  In addition, many of the fields are enabled with an auto complete function that helps the user to find customers, projects, and items quickly. 

There is no limit to the amount of items on the order.  Items can be added quickly by filling in the available fields and when those fields run out just add more by clicking on the insert button.  The Simple New Order also features additional buttons that allow the user access to other order properties when needed, such as automatic charges, pricing, taxes, hold quantities, pouring methods, usages, user defined fields, sales information, and more.
