CORE WORKFLOWS

Dispatch & Shipping features that follow the work

Choose the modules your team needs. The agreed configuration defines included features, data access and connected systems.

01

Dispatch readiness

Review allocation, packing completion and required documentation.

02

Shipment assembly

Group order lines into agreed consignments and packages.

03

Carrier handoff

Exchange shipment references with supported carrier or logistics systems.

04

Delivery exceptions

Track status updates and unresolved delivery issues.

WORK WITH THE RIGHT CONTEXT

Confirm readiness before the vehicle leaves

Warehouse teams bring together allocated order lines, verified packages and the required dispatch documents. The shipment records package references and the agreed carrier handoff. Customer-facing teams can see the shipment status without treating an incomplete pack as dispatched. Delivery updates and exceptions remain tied to the original consignment for follow-up.

AI AGENTS · NLP · VOICE

Ask clearly. Review the evidence. Decide with context.

Configure an app-specific agent to prepare a dispatch checklist and identify missing documents; logistics staff confirm carrier and release.

Purchasing commitments, stock adjustments and quality release require authorised approval.

Agent tools, allowed actions, knowledge sources and access boundaries are agreed during solution design. The example question shows a proposed interaction, not a live AI connection.

Which shipments are blocked by missing documentation?
Natural-language access

Ask an agreed business question, retrieve only permitted records and show the source behind the answer. Unsupported questions should return a clear limit rather than an invented response.

Voice where it helps

Optional speech input can capture the question or task. Show the transcript for confirmation, keep typing available and validate the chosen language, device and working environment.

WORKFLOW AUTOMATION & RPA

Move routine work forward. Keep exceptions visible.

A ready order starts packing and document checks; approved dispatch sends the tracking reference to the agreed systems.

01PrepareCapture the source and owner.
02PackCheck business rules and evidence.
03DispatchConfirm the authorised decision.
04ConfirmReturn the reference and exceptions.

Use supported connectors and event-driven workflows where suitable. For a legacy screen-based task, RPA can be scoped with controlled credentials, exception handling, monitoring and recovery. Record identifiers and duplicate checks help prevent a retry from creating a second transaction.

DATA ANALYTICS

Measure the process. Understand the exception.

Connect the selected operational measures to their source records. Agree ownership, filters and refresh intervals so the team knows what the numbers mean.

01

Dispatch readiness

Compare the current period with an agreed baseline. Separate open work from completed records.

02

Documentation exceptions

Investigate by owner, date, entity or location where those fields are available and permitted.

03

Delivery follow-up

Follow the exception to its source and assign an action. Validate the definition before using it as a KPI.

Operational dashboards can be extended with Power BI or your approved analytics platform. Predictive analysis is scoped only where historical data, evaluation and monitoring support it.

ERP & ENTERPRISE CONNECTIONS

Keep your core systems. Connect the work around them.

MetaDynamic manages integration design, configuration and testing. Your users work through the application; your technical team gets clear ownership, monitoring and support arrangements.

SAP

Finance, purchasing, inventory, production and maintenance records; SAP HR data where relevant.

Review the deployed SAP product, authorised objects and supported connector or interface.

Infor

Operational records for Infor LN, M3 or CloudSuite, according to your deployed product.

Confirm available Infor OS/ION services, permissions and transaction coverage.

Microsoft

Dynamics 365, Microsoft 365, identity and analytics services relevant to the application.

Select licensed connectors and the appropriate Dynamics 365 or Microsoft data source.

Custom ERP

Your existing master data, transaction records and agreed extension points.

Choose a supported interface, controlled file exchange or supervised RPA after system review.

Compatibility is confirmed against your product version, licensed services, permissions, required fields and supported operations. Native connectors, vendor interfaces, file exchange and RPA are different options—not a promise that every platform connects without setup.

MOBILE · TABLET · LAPTOP · DESKTOP

The right task on the screen in front of you.

Use a focused mobile or tablet experience to record a stock movement or inspect a receipt. Give laptop and desktop users more room for lists, comparisons and detailed reporting.

Responsive layouts, keyboard access and touch controls are part of the design brief. Camera, barcode, voice and offline options are included only where they suit the task and have been tested on the agreed devices.

Voice availability depends on the chosen speech service, language, microphone permission and environment. Sensitive information stays visible only to the authorised user; noisy or shared areas need a practical alternative.

DATA PROTECTION & CONTROL

Define who can see, change and approve.

Security requirements belong in the application design and acceptance criteria. Confirm the controls for the selected hosting, identity, data and AI services before release.

Identity & access

Scope SSO and MFA with the approved identity provider. Map access by role, entity and record, and separate preparation from approval where required.

Data & recovery

Agree encryption, data location, retention, backup and recovery requirements. Store credentials in a managed secret store and minimise sensitive data in logs.

AI & audit

Apply source-system permissions to retrieval. Define permitted AI services, data handling and retention; log tool actions and require approval for consequential changes.

Validation & support

Test access boundaries, integrations and recovery scenarios. Agree vulnerability testing, monitoring and support ownership for the deployed configuration.

VALUE & ROI

Build a business case your team can check.

Start with minutes spent preparing a shipment handoff. Measure the baseline, validate the target in a pilot, and include implementation and ongoing costs.

Build your business caseEditable planning assumptions · INR

Measure for this app: Minutes spent preparing a shipment handoff. The starting values are illustrative assumptions, not MetaDynamic customer results or guaranteed savings. Time released is capacity; it becomes cash savings only when costs are actually reduced.

Calculation and assumptions

Monthly hours = volume × max(current minutes − target minutes, 0) ÷ 60. Annual realised value = monthly hours × loaded hourly cost × realisation percentage × 12. First-year investment = one-time investment + 12 × monthly running cost. ROI = (annual realised value − first-year investment) ÷ first-year investment × 100. Simple payback = one-time investment ÷ (monthly realised value − monthly running cost), where the denominator is positive.

The model assumes 12 months at steady-state use. It excludes ramp-up delays, financing, tax and unquantified benefits. Avoid double-counting the same time savings across applications. Enter your own values; all calculation stays in your browser.

Review dispatch checklist, carrier interfaces, packaging rules and delivery statuses. Confirm the users, devices, data owners and measures of success.

02 / CONFIGURE

Build and validate

Configure the agreed workflows, screens, AI options and interfaces. Test normal records, permissions, exceptions and recovery with business users.

03 / ADOPT

Launch and measure

Train users, reconcile migrated data and introduce the application in a controlled rollout. Compare measured outcomes with the agreed baseline.

APPLICATION QUESTIONS

Dispatch & Shipping FAQs

Which features are included in Dispatch & Shipping?

The proposal specifies the application modules, user roles, AI-agent actions, analytics, deployment and support included in your configuration. The interface walkthrough uses example records; delivered screens and enabled actions are validated against the agreed scope.

Can this connect with our existing ERP or business platform?

Relevant connection options include SAP, Infor, Microsoft, Custom ERP. We review your product version, licensed interfaces, permissions and required operations before confirming compatibility. MetaDynamic manages the agreed integration and testing.

Does this include AI agents, NLP and voice?

These can be scoped around the application workflow. Natural-language responses need approved sources and permission-aware retrieval; voice requires a supported language, device and speech service. Purchasing commitments, stock adjustments and quality release require authorised approval.

Do we need to build REST API integrations ourselves?

MetaDynamic can deliver and support the agreed integrations. The implementation may use native connectors, vendor APIs, controlled files or RPA. Authentication, licensing, data mapping and error handling still need to be configured and tested.

Will it work on mobile, tablet, laptop and desktop?

We design the selected tasks responsively and agree a device/browser test matrix before rollout. Native mobile, offline, scanning and voice capabilities are separate scope decisions where needed; they are not implied by a responsive website.

How are security and ROI confirmed?

Security controls are agreed for the deployed architecture and tested before release. ROI is estimated from your process volumes, measured time, costs and benefit-realisation assumptions, then checked after a pilot. The calculator is an estimate, not a guaranteed return.
