Purpose
The Trip Simulation process helps management estimate the profitability of a planned logistics trip before the trip is executed. It combine
{ Route setup, fuel consumption, fixed expenses, revenue, and payable costs } into one simulation document.
The process supports:
- Route-based cost planning
- Automated trip expense extraction
- Fuel cost calculation
- Gross profit and gross profit percentage analysis
- Purchase Order creation for payable trip expenses
- Purchase Order creation for fuel
- Traceability between Trip Simulation and Purchase Orders
- Management reporting through the Trip Analysis Report
