Take an Order / Job Entry
How to take an order / job entry for a customer
Order entry is a simple step-by-step process, used by dispatchers and customers alike.
WIMP’s exclusive Street Address Validation plus the geocode ensures precise location for delivery.
A geocode map shows the destination for the driver. If it’s a scheduled run, our Spelling Assist auto-fills the information for you, and alerts you if there’s a typo. Find or sort customers by multiple methods such as most used, most recent, all callers, or by address.
Automated cut-off times and job type is very useful when, for example, a customer calls in an order at 4pm for a same-day delivery…WIMP would not allow an economy price, knowing that a 1-hour delivery is a rush job.
Also, it works with or without a mouse.
Our Job Entry was built with dispatchers and customer users in mind. The screen is the same, but the customer would have limited information. This security, role-based method will be tailor-made for your business.
Moved servers to new data center
Cloud-based servers moved to data center with 20MB fiber, redundant battery backup and located on the power grid with two hospitals, a police station and two firehouses.
2010 Street Database Released
The WIMP software geographical database of all street corners in the United States has been updated with the latest release of US Census Tiger Data from 2010. With address assist and validation, you can be sure to cut down on the ‘lost claims’. Your drivers will now be confident they aren’t going to the wrong addresses, and won’t get lost anymore. More deliveries can be made in a given day. More deliveries = more revenue.
How can we be so inexpensive?
With labor being the largest expense for most businesses, we felt this was the first category to address. Most software developers are using propriety software with a very small pool of programmers available to hire from. New employees take longer to train, which could take months before being available to contribute any valuable work. We solved this problem by building our Tracking Software, incorporating a variety of the most current, popular technology. Hence, with a large pool of programmers now available, we can pass the savings on to you.
Does WIMP come with a manual?
Yes. In these current times, we believe putting the manual online for everyone to use makes more sense. Unlike the “olden days”, a manual for a multi-user application gets put on the shelf behind the desk of the president. Moreover, your System Administrator/Owner can update all the pages to better fit their business. This manual is also Role-based and privilege-restricted; your Accountant will only see the sections applicable to the ‘Accountant’ role, and so on.
Does WIMP work with SMS?
Yes. To enable this, you will need to send an email to a SMS Gateway first. Here is a link showing a list of SMS Gateways:.
How many companies are using WIMP?
