Create & Manage

Create & Manage

  • Create Orders

    Easy order entry for the creation of both inbound and outbound orders with pre-loaded product and receiver information.

  • Real time stock on hand

    View real-time stock on hand information at the point of booking that ensures you know exactly how much stock you have on hand, which minimises the risk of stockouts (which can lead to lost sales).

  • Select your delivery date and communicate any special delivery requirements

    Ensure all relevant delivery information is communicated so you minimise the risk of futile deliveries which may risk in extra unwanted costs and affect your brand image.

  • Set up notifications

    Keep all relevant parties connected by setting up warehouse & final mile milestone notifications as needed (either specific or all) for each order as needed which can be received via SMS or email and tracked through the Mainfreight website.

  • Centralised communication

    Enquiries are prioritised and reported in one central location. You can create, receive and manage everything for any order in your Mainchain dashboard.

Visibility

Our global warehousing footprint is supported by one Mainfreight warehousing technology platform ensuring full visibility in one system across any combination of cities and countries. 

View real-time stock on hand information across any Mainfreight warehouse around the world that you store freight at. This ensures you know exactly how much stock you have on hand so you can minimise the risk of stockouts (which can lead to lost sales) and overstocks (which can increase holding costs), both of which impact your bottom line. Having access to real-time inventory numbers also helps to reduce inventory shrinkage.
