The 2016 NovoRoiSystem’s User Group Meeting was another
great success drawing 47 attendees from 29 companies. Customers left with lots
of things to think about, and so did those of us on the Manage 2000 development
team.
By the time I got back into the office I had a list of 17 new ideas to
consider for future Manage 2000 development.
One of them came directly out of customer questions about the new
mapping capabilities in release 8.1; “Hey what about truck scheduling
maps?”
The timing couldn’t have been
better. So the GA release will include a new Manage 2000 web mapping function
for the TSCH module: TruckRoute
This
new web function displays maps of truck scheduling routes as defined in
ROUTE.MASTER.MAINT. Each route stop is marked with a numbered pushpin.
Clicking on a marker brings up
an information window with the Route Nbr, customer or facility name, phone, and
address.
Each stop except the last displays a link for Directions to next stop. Clicking on the Directions to next stop link will provide driving turn by turn directions and draw the route on the map.
Thank you NovoRoiSystems for creating the event that draws us all together and allows our ideas to mix and germinate and blossom into creative new software and solutions.
