XRS Corp debuts Trip Management, enhances overall system performance

XRS Corporation, a provider of mobile trucking intelligence systems, has announced its latest software release. The new features and enhancements include the debut of XRS Trip Management, automated IFTA filing, upgrades to FLX forms editing, and overall system performance.
•XRS Trip Management—Trip Management is a set of capabilities used to manage trip-based workflows and the reporting needs for fleets that run regular routes. The functionality was built to give fleets the data needed to enhance driver productivity and customer service, maximize asset utilization, slash costs, and deliver when expected. XRS Trip Management imports routes from third-party routing packages, creates routes from scratch, and processes planned versus actual data as a route is completed. The XRS mobile app gives detailed insight into stops and activities.
•IFTA fuel tax reporting—XRS automatically detects jurisdiction crossings and generates data for meeting quarterly International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) requirements. Beyond simple data collection and reporting, XRS provides a simplified “print, sign, send” service for 45 of 48 IFTA reporting states and all Canadian provinces, putting data into official state forms and freeing fleets from paperwork. This capability streamlines the entire IFTA filing process, while providing a detailed data trail to ensure compliance and preparation in case of audit. This release of IFTA allows fleets to satisfy Q3 2014 filing requirements quickly and easily.
•FLX forms—The process for creating two-way structured communication between dispatch and driver is now even more flexible. When adding a new form message, intuitive options give more configuration power to the designer. This release adds easier steps for form organization, field grouping, field repetition, and overall layout and design configuration. Drivers can quickly and easily capture signatures, pictures, and delivery information using smartphones, tablets, or rugged hand devices.
•Additional enhancements:
—Additional French and Spanish language support in mobile interfaces for ESL drivers
—Improved reliability and scalability to the XRS cloud-based infrastructure
—Faster overall performance, with an emphasis on accelerated report generation
—Reduced time to apply driver log edits and unassigned vehicle activity
