Project Background
Fashion of outsourcing gives business opportunity
for the logistic industry for more and more organizations
are now focusing on their core businesses and use
the strategy of outsourcing the logistics activities,
which include the activities of picking and packaging,
delivering, and inventory control. To take this opportunity,
logistics service providers must be able to deliver
speedy and convenient service to clients, and hence
help them to achieve better management and control
on supply chains and inventories.
Having considered the needs of the logistics service
providers, an E-shipping System is particularly developed
for shipping companies with the following purposes:
- To allow electronic data interchange among business
partners and thus enhance the communication between
service provider and its customers.
- To simplify the tasks of handling shipping order.
- To reduce the paper handling tasks.
- To provide a convenient and effective way to manage
the company's data.
System Features
The E-shipping System has tow main parts. The first
is the part that allow client to obtain shipping schedule
and shipping order from the Internet. The second part
is an application that allows staff to manage and
access the data, which is necessary for handling each
shipping transaction. The following interfaces are
part of the system application that allow the staff
to view and update various data, including the shipping
order, bill of lading, and warehouse data.
