Logistics Gateway: A Secure Web-Based Logistics Portal

Manhattan Associates' Logistics Gateway is a private and secure web-based logistics management portal that serves as an extranet-like collaboration platform for all trading partners including shippers, suppliers and motor carriers to communicate and exchange information about invoices, orders, fulfillment, shipment status and more. It facilitates requisition management, purchase order (PO) management, inspections and quality assurance, fulfillment, shipping and chargebacks between distributors and transportation providers.

With greater visibility into order and shipment status, Logistics Gateway allows you to:

• View “dynamic inventory” that is in transit between factories, distributors and hubs
• Obtain alerts when delays will impact scheduled deliveries
• Use real-time information to lower safety stock levels
• Act on delay notifications to arrange alternative products, sources or transportation modes
• Adapt readily to unexpected transportation events and find alternatives for affected shipments
• Obtain visibility inbound to facilities for resource planning
• Locate critical orders and shipments
