Auto Start with last
Shipment - saves time: Each time you open CargoWiz
it automatically loads the data file of your last shipment. For
manufacturers the data file is usually all of the products they make
with shipment quantities of each cargo type generally set to zero.
Just reset the quantities for the new shipment as needed and press
"Load".
(With competitors - generally you must find and open a database, Then you
must extract the items for the current shipment, thus creating and
managing a subset of the master database. )
Built-in Truck and Container
Sizes: Many popular truck
and containers are built-in so you do not have to create them, you just click on the one you want to
use. Or you may easily create your own.
Mixed sizes are possible, to minimize shipping
costs - perhaps you fill a 40 Ft
container and have some cargo left, you may choose a 20 Ft container
for the balance.
User Interface Features
Tabs: Tabs are
easy to understand and in CargoWiz you essentially deal with
just 3 primary tabs.
You always know "where you are" in the program.
(With competitors - User interface can be confusing.)
Color keyed Column Heads make it simple: Note the
pink and blue column heads. The pink designates required data while
the blue is optional.
You don't have to supply much
If you use the Excel Import Template you can
enter just length, width, and height and CargoWiz will
auto-generate
any other required values for you. A great time saver for freight
forwarders and others.
Two Load Views -Top and Angled
You can also click to view from the left angle.
(Our Competitors - just one view at any time)
Stage Area: Lets you graphically see loading
progress and quickly see what items are left out.
(Our competitors - no stage)
Cargo Labeled:
In the "Advanced Views" Window
you can see the
cargo labeled with either the part number, short ID or description.
You can also zoom in and rotate
the image.
(Few competitors have labels)
Units Inside column
This is handy if you deal with the
total quantities within boxes, not just the number of boxes. It
calculates the totals. Example 100 boxes, 12
widgets per box (the units inside), so CargoWiz totals 1200 for you.
Magic ID - Cargo Under Mouse:
Details of the
Cargo under the mouse pointer are displayed on screen. Even works
for cargo on the stage.
(Few competitors have anything
similar)
Repeatedly clicking the Draw Steps
button permits viewing loading
steps, thus revealing cargo hidden in the full view.
Accepts both Dots and Commas as Decimal Delimiters:
A dimension can be entered, for instance, as "95.50" or "95,50", the
latter being the method in many European countries.
Importing Your Data
Option 1.Type it
directly into the Cargo Grid The grid is effectively the
database of cargo.
Option 2. Easy Import using our Excel Template.
This is the
easiest and most popular method when there are
many products or cargo types. You copy your data to the clipboard
from any source that permits it. Usually it is your own Excel sheet,
but could also be a database or even a Word document. Paste it into
our Excel template and click "Submit". It checks that your data is
acceptable (such as that dimensions do not contain letters) then
transfers it to the Cargo Grid where you can save it.
Option 3. Link to your ERP, WMS or business system.
This requires that you have a programmer familiar with your system
write a small amount of code to create a file for you to open with shipment data from your system. We provide all the needed information.
Loading Rule Options
(Note: The software is designed so that you can simply ignore these
options when not needed.)
Set Stacking Limits - Set how many times
like cargo may be stacked.
load
by Sets or Ratio - like 4 chairs for every table
Make some cargo "Taboo on top" of other cargo
Require some cargo be placed bottom only
Set Loading Priorities - as for sequential deliveries
or grouping of products
Set Orientations allowed for each cargo type - such
as can be turned horizontally, but cannot be placed on end.
Set total weight limit and CargoWiz will stop loading and
advise when it is met.
