AJAX Logistics

Keep every load connected to the warehouse, carrier, and customer.

AJAX Logistics brings transportation execution into the same operational platform used by the warehouse. Plan and tender loads, assign carriers, coordinate appointments and docks, confirm staging and loading, capture shipment documents, record exceptions, and preserve delivery proof without rebuilding the story across calls, emails, and spreadsheets.

Transportation Execution

Connect tendering, carrier activity, dock operations, and delivery proof in one load record.

AJAX Logistics is designed to reduce status chasing when tenders, appointments, carrier communication, warehouse readiness, paperwork, freight cost, and delivery evidence are managed in separate systems.

Load Planning

Build the load around orders, stops, and capacity.

Group sales orders, transfers, shipments, stops, pallets, lots, quantities, customers, delivery windows, equipment, temperature needs, and route requirements.

Tendered Loads

Issue and track carrier tenders.

Record the carrier, rate, equipment, pickup, delivery, response status, timing, instructions, and communication history for each tender issued.

Carrier Assignment

Keep the accepted carrier tied to the load.

Track approved status, operating authority, insurance, equipment, service history, contact details, acceptance, rejection, cancellation, and replacement assignment.

Appointments

Schedule arrivals and departures with context.

Record carrier, customer, supplier, load, date, time, dock, shipment, purchase, transfer, and special-handling requirements.

Dock Management

Match doors, loads, and warehouse readiness.

Assign dock doors, show staging status, identify delays, confirm loading sequence, and preserve arrival, departure, and service timing.

Freight and Accessorials

Make the complete transportation cost visible.

Record base freight, fuel, detention, lumper, redelivery, storage, stop-off, temperature, brokerage, and other approved accessorial charges.

Digital Documents

Keep the paperwork with the load.

Attach bills of lading, packing documents, inspections, certificates, carrier records, rate confirmations, images, and customer-required documents.

Delivery Proof and Exceptions

Preserve evidence at the final handoff.

Capture signatures, names, dates, times, locations, images, shortages, damage, refusals, temperature exceptions, and final proof of delivery.

Load Lifecycle

One controlled story from planning through delivery.

The same order, shipment, pallet, lot, customer, carrier, tender, route, dock, document, exception, and cost reference can follow the load through every operational step.

Step 1 Plan

Build the load, stops, equipment, schedule, capacity, shipment contents, customer requirements, and expected cost.

Step 2 Tender

Issue the load to a carrier, record the response, and preserve the communication and tender history.

Step 3 Check In

Capture driver, vehicle, trailer, appointment, arrival, documents, safety steps, and dock assignment.

Step 4 Stage and Load

Confirm warehouse readiness, staged pallets, lots, quantities, loading sequence, temperatures, and exceptions.

Step 5 Dispatch and Track

Record departure, route status, milestones, carrier updates, delays, temperature evidence, and delivery timing.

Step 6 Deliver and Reconcile

Capture proof, shortages, damage, claims, accessorials, final status, and the reviewed result required by finance.

Tender and Carrier Control

Preserve the full tender history, including rejected, cancelled, and replacement tenders.

Tendering is an operational event. Each tender issued can be tracked independently so the business can see which carrier received the opportunity, how the carrier responded, why the load changed, and which tender ultimately produced the accepted assignment.

Accepted Tender

Confirm the carrier commitment.

Preserve the accepted rate, equipment, pickup, delivery, reference numbers, contact, and response timestamp.

Rejected or Cancelled

Keep the reason visible.

Record rejection, cancellation, capacity failure, timing conflict, price issue, service restriction, or other reason.

Re-Tendered Load

Create a new controlled tender event.

When a load is re-issued to another carrier, preserve the original tender and create a new tender record rather than overwriting the history.

Rules by Transportation Context

Configure tender, carrier, and load controls around customer risk, product requirements, route, equipment, and service expectations.

Context Transportation-Control Options
Carrier Track approved status, insurance, authority, equipment, service history, contacts, and response rules.
Customer Require appointment, routing, document, signature, image, delivery, or temperature proof.
Product Apply cold-chain, food-safety, lot, shelf-life, segregation, inspection, or equipment requirements.
Route Control stop sequence, delivery windows, mileage, instructions, access restrictions, and route-specific proof.
Exception Route detention, late arrival, damage, shortage, temperature deviation, rejection, or failed delivery into review.
Dock and Delivery Proof

Capture evidence once and keep it with the shipment.

Arrival, loading, departure, temperature, route, and delivery evidence should remain connected to the same load instead of being distributed across paper forms, email attachments, text messages, and carrier portals.

AJAX Logistics carrier check-in and appointment workflow Carrier and Appointment Readiness

Capture check-in and dock context.

Capture arrival, driver, vehicle, appointment, documents, safety acknowledgment, dock assignment, and warehouse readiness.

AJAX Logistics cold-chain temperature and delivery proof workflow Cold-Chain and Delivery Proof

Preserve the evidence from departure through delivery.

Preserve temperature records, images, signatures, route timing, delivery acceptance, shortages, damage, and shipment exceptions.

Connected Operations

Logistics becomes more valuable when warehouse, quality, finance, and profitability share the same operational story.

AJAX OES applications are designed to reduce manual handoffs between warehouse, dispatch, quality, customer service, finance, and executive reporting.

WMS Connect warehouse readiness to the load.

Pick status, staged pallets, lots, quantities, dock assignment, holds, loading readiness, and shipment confirmation can flow into logistics execution.

View WMS
QMS Preserve quality and cold-chain requirements.

Inspection results, release status, temperatures, photos, holds, damage, claims, and shipment conditions can remain connected to the same load.

View QMS
Profitability Connect freight cost to cost-to-serve.

Base freight, fuel, accessorials, detention, redelivery, claims, route complexity, and service requirements can help explain customer and sales-order profitability.

Business Central Connection

Keep Business Central as the financial system of record while AJAX OES manages transportation execution.

AJAX Logistics is designed to connect carrier and delivery activity to warehouse pallets, customer orders, shipment documents, quality evidence, freight cost, and Business Central transaction references already used by the operation.

Logistics Execution

Give every participant the same load context.

Dock staff, dispatchers, warehouse users, drivers, carriers, supervisors, and customer-service teams can work from the same load context while authorized users retain control over Business Central shipment, payable, and financial posting.

Business Central Documents

Connect transportation work to source records.

Sales orders, warehouse shipments, transfers, returns, posted shipments, purchase documents, customers, vendors, carriers, and locations remain connected.

Warehouse Readiness

Use the actual fulfillment status.

Pick status, staged pallets, SSCCs, lots, quantities, dock assignment, holds, and loading readiness remain visible.

Freight and Payables

Prepare reviewed carrier costs.

Reviewed carrier charges, accessorials, supporting documents, shipment references, and payable-ready results remain connected.

Customer Proof

Preserve the final delivery evidence.

Bills of lading, images, signatures, delivery times, shortages, damage, claims, and proof of delivery remain available.

Executive Value

Reduce status chasing, detention, disputes, and hidden transportation cost.

Connected load data gives operations, finance, quality, and customer service a common record for reviewing service, evidence, cost, and exceptions.

Lower Dock Waste See readiness before the carrier is waiting.

Connect appointment, pick, staging, dock, documents, loading, and departure status so users spend less time calling, texting, and searching for answers.

Stronger Shipment Proof Keep evidence tied to the actual load.

Documents, images, signatures, temperatures, delivery times, shortages, damage, and exceptions remain connected.

Better Carrier Control Preserve the complete tender history.

Tender and assignment records help management review carrier responsiveness, service, rate history, and replacement frequency.

Lower Freight Leakage Make accessorials and exceptions visible.

Detention, redelivery, lumper, storage, fuel, damage, shortage, and other charges can be reviewed against the load and supporting evidence.

Cost Per Sales Order Connect transportation cost to customer service.

Freight, route complexity, stop count, delivery requirements, exceptions, and accessorials can support cost-to-serve and sales-order profitability analysis.

Better Department Communication Share the same operating context.

Shared load records reduce repeated explanations, disconnected spreadsheets, and conflicting versions of shipment status.

Start with connected logistics execution.

Estimate AJAX OES pricing, create a tenant, and begin guided setup without waiting for a consultation.

Separate Tender Events

Each load tender issued is treated as a separate operational tender event. A rejected, cancelled, broken, or re-tendered load may create an additional tender transaction when a new tender is issued.

Capabilities shown on this page describe the intended AJAX Logistics application and may include planned features. Final availability and scope depend on enabled applications, customer workflows, carrier participation, external services, device permissions, Business Central configuration, integrations, and implementation requirements.
