Loggerise Trip Management: Maximum Profitability and Smart Planning in Logistics Operations

The most critical stage that determines the profitability of logistics operations is the moment the wheels start turning; that is, trip planning. The Loggerise Trip Management Module keeps you from getting lost among complex Excel spreadsheets and manual calculations. By moving your operational processes to a centralized, smart, and fully digital structure, it reveals the true potential of your fleet.

Plan your trips not just to “have done them,” but to “make a profit.” With Loggerise, see in real time which vehicle is traveling on which route at what cost, and control the processes end to end.

1. Consolidation and Route Optimization with Drag-and-Drop Technology

In the logistics sector, where every second counts, speed is everything. Thanks to our advanced interface, you can match the Vehicle – Driver – Load trio within seconds and create your trips error-free.

Especially in partial (LTL) transport, managing the consolidation (assigning multiple loads to a single trip) operations that boost profitability on a single screen is now very easy:

  • Visual Planning: Assign loads to vehicles using the drag-and-drop method. Create the most sensible route by viewing the delivery and pickup points on the map.
  • Capacity Management: Eliminate the risk of “hauling air” by seeing the vehicle’s fill rate in real time.
  • Smart Route: Achieve significant savings on both time and fuel by determining the shortest and least costly route on multi-stop trips.

 

2. Real-Time Trip Cost and Profit/Loss Analysis

Knowing a trip’s revenue is not enough; its real success lies in its net profit. Loggerise presents you with estimated costs before the trip is completed, and the actual costs after it is completed.

Prevent financial surprises by managing all expense items incurred during the trip from a single center:

  • Detailed Expense Tracking: Record fuel purchases (liters, amount, the station where purchased, mileage information), bridge and highway toll fees, customs expenses, and accommodation costs into the system by categorizing them.
  • Trip-Based Profitability: At the end of each trip, automatically see the equation “Freight Revenue – Total Expenses = Net Profit.” Analyze with data which routes or which vehicles operate more profitably.

3. Driver Advance Management and Cash Flow Control

Managing the cash needs of the driver on a trip is the biggest gray area between accounting and operations. Make this process transparent with Loggerise:

  • Advance Tracking: Record the cash or bank advances given to drivers onto the trip card.
  • Error-Free Reconciliation: Upon the trip’s return, automatically compare the receipts the driver brings with the advance given. Protect your cash balance by eliminating manual calculation errors.

4. Digital Archive: Your Documents Safe in the Cloud

Free your operational memory from piles of paper that are prone to getting lost. Digitize all documents that serve as the legal and financial proof of the trip:

  • Full Integration: Add waybills, weighbridge tickets, fuel and expense receipts, and delivery records (POD) related to the trip onto the relevant trip card by photographing or scanning them.
  • Easy Access: Access a document belonging to a trip within seconds, even years later. Respond instantly to customer requests or official audits.

In order to plan trip costs and scheduling most accurately, loads must first be entered into the system correctly. Haven’t defined your loads yet? Load Management screen to review the details.

Thanks to Loggerise's "Drag-and-Drop" technology, you can easily assign loads belonging to different customers to a single vehicle. With the consolidation feature, you can manage multiple loadings on a single screen by seeing the vehicle's fill rate in real time.

The system presents estimated costs before the trip is completed, and the actual (real) costs during and at the end of the trip. You can view the net profit that results after fuel, highway, and driver expenses are deducted in real time.

You record the cash or bank advances given to the driver at departure into the system. Upon the trip's return, the expense receipts the driver brings are automatically compared with the advance given (reconciliation), so that no cash shortfall or surplus occurs.

Yes. All documents related to the trip (delivery records, fuel receipts, etc.) are digitized and added to the relevant trip card. Even years later, you can access the documents within seconds by searching by date, license plate, or trip number.

On multi-stop trips, we help you create the most sensible route by visualizing the delivery and pickup points on the map. This way, you prevent unnecessary mileage and save on fuel and time.
