By integrating FarEye into our operations, we aim to streamline our processes from the moment a shipment is entered into our system to its final delivery.
Waybill Entry into Insight
Waybills can be entered into Insight through various methods:
Manual Capture: Via our web app, allowing staff to input waybill details directly.
Integrated Shipments: Customers with system integrations can automatically send shipment data to Insight.
E-commerce Orders: Orders from platforms like Shopify are synced using our dedicated plugin.
Note: Detailed instructions for waybill entry are covered in separate documentation.
Automatic Synchronization with FarEye
Process: Waybills are automatically synchronized with FarEye every 15 minutes using a REST API.
Criteria: Only waybills scheduled for the current date are included in the synchronization process.
Data Synced: Includes address information, service priority, delivery slot, and parcel details (weight and dimensions).
Route Information from FarEye
FarEye provides optimized route information back to our system. This data includes:
Route ID, Reference Number, and Slot
Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) and Service Time
Job details such as Latitude, Longitude, and Geocode Accuracy
Sequence, Pallets, and Fence Name
Additional details like Travel Time, Travel Distance, and Trip ID
This information is used to create a trip on company-provided phones using our in-house app, ensuring drivers follow the correct sequence of stops.
Verifying Synchronization
Currently, there is no streamlined method to verify synchronization. Future updates will include enhanced verification features. Please stay tuned for these improvements.
Collection Booking
Collection booking is a straightforward process that ensures pickups are efficiently scheduled and managed. This section provides a brief overview of the process and its synchronization with FarEye.
Process for Booking Collections
Capture in Insight: Collections must be entered into Insight and confirmed by the Customer Service Department (CSD).
Order Type: Collections are treated as pickup orders, similar to waybills.
Note: Detailed instructions for collection booking are covered in separate documentation.
Collection Synchronization with FarEye
Process: Similar to waybill synchronization, collection data is automatically synced with FarEye.
No Arming Scan Required: Unlike some processes, collections do not require an arming scan for synchronization.
Definition
A floor scan is the process of scanning freight to indicate that it is ready for inclusion in FarEye's routing algorithm. This step is crucial for ensuring that freight is prepared for delivery planning and route computation.
Purpose of the Floor Scan
Signal Readiness: Floor scans signal that freight is prepared for the next routing cycle. This is essential for accurate delivery planning and efficient route computation.
Operational Priorities: Conducted based on branch or regional delivery knowledge and operational priorities, ensuring that only the appropriate freight is included in the routing process.
Performing a Floor Scan
Floor scans are performed by warehouse staff using company-provided Android scanners. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Log In:
Use the Honeywell Android warehouse scanner to log in to the warehouse app using your provided Warhouse App credentials.
Navigate to Scan Options:
Select the "Scan In" option.
Proceed to the "Floor Scan" option.
Scan Barcodes:
Scan the barcodes of the parcel numbers that are ready for delivery.
Marking for Routing:
The floor scan applies a mark on the shipment. A service then identifies updated shipments and sends a REST API post to mark the freight as ready for routing.
Note: Only freight to be delivered by a BEX driver within the relevant branch's geofence should be armed. Freight handled by agents should not be armed.
Handling Exceptions
While performing floor scans, you may encounter some exceptions. Here’s how to handle them:
Waybill Not Found:
Issue: If the waybill is not yet in Insight, a "parcel not found" error will be shown.
Solution: Perform a goods receiving scan on this freight to ensure it is entered into the system.
Network Slowdowns:
Issue: Network slowdowns can affect the scanning process.
Solution: Notify IT by sending a ticket to servicedesk@bex.co.za to address the issue.
