JDA Freight Order Management provides retailers and consumer goods companies with a platform for collaborating with their suppliers on activities related to inbound shipments. Freight Order Management provides visibility to this crucial supply process, thus better synchronizing your operations with those of your key vendors. The solution is designed not only as a visibility tool for you, but as an easy-to-use collaboration platform where your vendors access their purchase orders to update you on their important activities related to your shipments.
This powerful solution provides logistics organizations with a means to rapidly share and control detailed purchase order information directly with vendors via the internet, EDI, or any method required by a vendor. Shippers can quickly collaborate with vendors on critical purchase order data related to logistics processing, providing configurable display and manipulation of order and item-level information, from order origination to ultimate delivery.
The activities that JDA Freight Order Management manages include posting purchase orders online, vendor requests for order routing (EDI 753), routing instructions to your vendors (EDI 754), generation of compliant documentation such as carton labels and packing lists, viewing shipment confirmations and advanced ship notices from vendors (EDI 856), and confirming receipt of the delivered products.
JDA Freight Order Management follows business process logic that can be configured to match your process to ensure that you have full visibility to the important milestones that occur during ordering and inbound delivery processes with your vendors by employing powerful event management and monitoring of business rules that you configure.
