 If more than one person is responsible for logistics in your company, for example, there is a manager and a logistician or several logisticians, it may be useful for you to distribute administrative access rights to the service. You will also need this setting if you plan to provide drivers with mobile devices on which our mobile application is installed. Each driver will only see his own route. Working together, there is a risk of accidental editing or deletion of reference information, for example, by a new employee who is just learning the service. Rigid Administration does not allow for such risks. Administrator rights are automatically obtained by a user who has registered on the ANT-Logistics service. Only the Administrator can enter, delete, edit information in the Directories by default. He, if necessary, can easily connect new delivery points, change the access level for a particular employee. Collaboration involves the use of both static and dynamically configured access l

 Several of our clients contacted us with the task of taking into account the working days of the sale points. For example, an point accepts goods only on Mondays, and if such an point accidentally appears in order on any other day, route calculation must be blocked. Thus, the driver will not waste time and fuel.  In order to display the work schedule of points by day, go to the Table settings 1 , select the Directories - Sales points 2 , in the sub-box  Schedule 3 - Editing record 4   - Show 5 .  There are 2 ways to set the point's work schedule: 1. Select a point, click twice to open Editing record 1 tab, Schedule field  2 , select the necessary days of the week 3 . 2. Excel file.  Add the Schedule column, indicate in front of each point the working days of the week separated by commas, where: 1 - Monday, 2 - Tuesday, etc. Save and upload the file to ANT-Logistics. Go to Service - Configuration - Documentation - Rule for controlling the schedule of SalePoints visit  - select 

 It's no secret that vehicles can suddenly break down, a driver can get sick, or more vehicles than usual can be needed. Accordingly, for reinsurance, it is better to have a small reserve of vehicles. What if there are more vehicles than necessary for a daily delivery, but the work, at the same time, needs to be divided among all drivers? The most obvious solution - to divide the points equally between the couriers - does not actually distribute the load evenly: there are different distances between the points, and the time spent at the points waiting for unloading can vary greatly. As a result, one driver can finish all the work by lunchtime, while the other is busy until the evening. In such cases, we suggest aligning the work of couriers in time. ANT-Logistics will take into account the number of points, speed limits, distance differences and unloading times - as a result, you will get efficient routes that will be as similar as possible in time. There are 2 options for calcula

 We all had to be in the role of a buyer of an online store, and if we order goods for home delivery, then everyone knows what it means "delivery will be approximately in the afternoon", i.e. the recipient needs to allocate almost a whole day in anticipation of delivery, which can be performed even in the evening. You must admit, it will be very convenient for you, as a client, specify the exact time range during which the order will be delivered to you. This article describes how, using the ANT-Logistics service, you can deliver orders to your customers at a specified time. Your customers will quickly appreciate it and will certainly come back for new purchases. In order for the system to correctly generate a schedule for the movement of cars by delivery points, the following parameters must be entered: Average vehicle speed - if you do not know the average speed of vehicles on the route - indicate 25 km/h 1 ; If delivery is carried out by trucks (vehicles that fall under t
