Prophesy enhances DispatchSeries with cross-docking

Prophesy Transportation Solutions has updated its DispatchSeries trucking software with new cross-docking and reconsolidation functionality. This will allow fleets to independently reallocate new loads once en route and enable companies to meet complex logistics objectives and customer requirements.

Among the new features are the ability to dynamically route shipments through one or more terminal locations; define any location as eligible for cross-docking; define default pickup and drop terminals for a customer; display activity to and from any terminal location; search and view all loads through which a given shipment is cross-docked; and adds new user interfaces, dispatch board views, and reports.

“In the current economy, companies are increasingly searching for additional sources of revenue, including the addition of LTL shipping services,” said Bill Ashburn, Prophesy vp. “The latest enhancements of Prophesy Dispatch will give many transportation companies the capabilities needed to take advantage of these additional opportunities and give them the most possible value from their software.”
