Users can Create In Transit, Receive to Warehouse, Inventory Adjust and Delete Ventures all with separate links and selections made directly from Container Information. This one screen has now become the virtual epicenter for all Container maintenance in VISCO.Invoice Maintenance Redesign – The new Contract Management function allows trading companies and brokers the ability to cut data entry in half. This new functionality allows users to add, edit or delete miscellaneous charges and edit general invoice information in the familiar VISCO webpage format.

We choose to reduce the amount of screens and completely remove the separate “Transactions” menu for In Transit and Warehouse work.
