Working Apps’ Tray Trace

Summary

Tray Trace is the effective answer to the management of re-useable containers. With the use of unique identifiers for each tray, container, roll cage, IBC, transit tank, barrel, gas bottle, potato box or pallet means these can be scanned on delivery, collection and at base to provide an accurate record of the container’s use and current location. Re-usable containers are environmentally friendly if re-used; where are they going to, and who is losing and not re-using costs a business both monetarily but also in loss of resources. Further Tray Trace lets you record the condition of the container, its temperature and free text as an option.

Description

Tray Trace has been designed to be flexible so that the application can be simply tailored to the customer’s requirements. 2D barcodes are recommended for their durability, but 1D will also work.

The user signs on either using a user name or as a vehicle run.

The user once signed on; can deliver, collect or check trays by scanning unique barcodes on the trays. Optionally Tray Trace lets the user record the condition of the tray as a drop down list, and or other factors such as temperature, as well as a free comment field.

On collection the tray returns to the user or route, optionally recording the condition.

A full stock check of trays at depot can be made, or a single check for its location.

The output is a list of trays their location and optionally condition, so that the owner knows where the re-usable containers are “resting”, and if required who to call to get them back.
