Business Intelligence gets Intelligently Redesigned
February 15, 2015 - Late 2014 is the re-
al-time ETA for Elite EXTRA’s new data
visualization package. Because so much
information is collected by just using
EXTRA in delivery operations, there had
to be a way to more effectively present it
to help inform business decisions.
Taking EXTRA’s already robust report-
ing features, and essentially starting
from scratch, the new data visualization
package will be bigger, more comprehen-
sive, more interactive, more customizable,
faster, and of course, even easier to use.
Order Entry Portal Can Handle Any Rate SheetJanuary 23, 2015 - An overhaul of the order entry screen allows for the flexibility to create quotes, convert them to orders, and handle any variable. EXTRA partnered with multiple couriers to de-sign and test the functionality, and to make sure all bases were covered. After months of rigorous beta and field testing, the official release is here.
