How It Works: Streamlined Shipment Management

Here's a quick guide to how the Shipment Tracking Management module operates within BSTD:

1. Creating a New Shipment: Administrators can initiate a new shipment by providing essential information such as the LR Number, origin and destination locations, customer name, and mobile contact details.
2. Unique Identifiers: Each newly created shipment is automatically assigned a unique `shipment_id`, enabling precise tracking and management from the centralized dashboard.
3. Real-time Status Updates: The status of any shipment can be updated at any time, with an optional feature to include live location data for enhanced accuracy.
4. Automated Tracking Logs: Every status change automatically generates a detailed tracking log, which is visible in the shipment's history section, providing a complete audit trail.
5. Direct Communication: For immediate client communication, administrators can directly call or send a WhatsApp message to the customer from the respective shipment card, improving responsiveness.

This streamlined workflow ensures that you maintain full control and transparency over your logistics operations.
