Logistics Collaboration Portal (LCP)

Logistics Collaboration Portal (LCP) is a browser-based expansion module that tracks the status of Product in Transit - the critical information that is required to maintain high Customer Service Levels.

This module is specifically designed to aid companies that rely on product from overseas vendors or need to keep a tight handle on product in-transit. LCP will help you know where your outstanding purchase orders are at any point in time. LCP tracks or calculates relevant information like: where the product is, who has the product (Freight Forwarder, shipper, Customs, etc.), and the Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA).

• Set permissions to allow external parties’ access to the LCP to view or update transit information
