Assigning and Tracking Deliveries with Your Own Trucks in Business Central

Summary

Shipping plays a critical role in warehouse operations, serving as a key link in the supply chain and ensuring timely, efficient delivery to customers.

To maintain a smooth workflow, it’s essential that orders are accurately packaged and shipped out on time.

If you rely on parcel carriers or freight services (LTL/FTL), solutions like Dynamic Ship or Order Ship Express can integrate with carriers, provide real-time rates, and enable tracking—all within Business Central.

But what if you use your own fleet of delivery trucks and need to assign shipments to drivers and track delivery status?

In this case, the Proof of Delivery app—an add-on to the Warehouse Insight app—provides the tools you need. Key features include:

  • A shipment list view for dispatchers to assign deliveries to specific drivers

  • Mobile functionality for drivers (via Android devices) to record deliveries, capture signatures, and take delivery photos

Let’s walk through how to set this up and use it in Business Central here….
