tailor OMNI~ViewTM TMS to mirror
their operations by selecting only those trailer
attributes they want to control. If
unchecked in the global suppression table, this
attribute does not appear in the trailer
sub-type or grid column lists. This
feature streamlines administration. |

Managers
configure trailer sub-types by selecting
attributes in the registration, basic info,
dimensions, chassis, and body groups for each
trailer sub-type they wish to control. For
example, your company may rent several van
sub-types including dry vans,
electronics vans, warehouse vans and furniture
vans. This utility permits each
organization to be as granular as they wish in
storing, displaying and retrieving trailer
sub-type data. Attributes not included in
the sub-type configuration do not display in the
Trailer Add form. |

can simply specify the number of units needed
and the requisite number of orders are created. |

Trailer
assignments can be made before or after entering
the order entry screen. If an order is
created without a trailer, anyone in your

screen downstream and assign trailers by
selecting from a list. The list is sorted

making it available again. |
