What is transport ERP software?
Transport ERP software runs a transport company end to end: LR / consignment booking, lorry hire, challan, freight billing, delivery and POD, plus accounts, GST and fleet costs. VCS Transport ERP does this in one cloud platform, so a booking flows through to billing and ledgers without re-typing.
How can I get truck rates from many brokers quickly?
With Vehicle Placement in VCS Transport ERP, the order goes on WhatsApp to the brokers who run that route and truck type. They send their rate from a link (no app, no login) and all rates show on one screen, cheapest first. Confirm in one tap, and the order and hire slip go into the ERP.
How can I get POD faster and bill the same day?
Every LR has its own QR code. The driver scans it with the phone camera, takes a photo of the POD, and the delivery and POD go into VCS Transport ERP in one tap. No app and no login. Your customer gets an SMS and email, so you can bill the same day.
Can parties pay freight online, and the receipt be made automatically?
Yes. The party pays by link, and the MR is made automatically with the bank reference. No matching against the bank statement. From the to-pay or paid MR, or the debtor receipt, press Send Payment Request: the party gets the link by SMS, and you can share it on WhatsApp too. They pay by UPI, card or net banking, straight to your bank account. Debtor receipts are bill-wise, with TDS deducted. One report shows what came in, what is pending and what failed, and any payment without a receipt is flagged at the top.
Can I make an LR (bilti) on my mobile?
Yes. With Auto LR/CN Entry in the VCS Transport ERP mobile app, upload a photo or PDF of the party invoice or manual bilti and the LR is created automatically in about 5 seconds, then share it to your client on WhatsApp.
Is there a VCS mobile app?
Yes. The VCS Transport ERP Android app works on the same live data as the web ERP: an owner dashboard, LR entry (including Auto LR/CN Entry from an invoice photo or PDF) and broker/owner details, with the LR shared to your client on WhatsApp. Screens can be customised to your requirement.
How can my customers track consignments and download POD without calling?
The VCS Client Portal gives each customer a login to track any LR from booking to delivery, download the signed POD and see outstanding bills, 24x7 on their mobile. Your lorry hire, broker and trip costs stay hidden.
What is FleetDrishti?
FleetDrishti is VCS's fleet management software for truck owners: morning alerts, control tower, service due and job cards, tyres, FASTag toll checks and route budgets in 21 tabs, on Android and iPhone without an app.
Is VCS software ready for GST, E-way Bill and e-Invoice?
Yes. VCS produces GST-compliant freight bills and GST registers, generates and auto-extends E-way Bills, creates e-Invoices, and has FASTag and GPS integrations built in, along with broker and owner TDS.
Which transport software can track trucks without a GPS device?
VCS Transport ERP shows where each of your trucks last crossed a toll plaza, with date, time and toll paid, from your FASTag data, so you know roughly where a truck is without fitting a GPS device. GPS tracking is also integrated for trucks that have it.
Can transport software auto-extend E-way Bills?
Yes. VCS lists E-way Bills expiring today, tomorrow and after, branch by branch, with an Auto Extend All action. It also makes consolidated E-way Bills and shows LRs pending Part-B update. More for part-load and parcel operators.
What is the best software for a truck broker or commission agent?
Look for software that handles the lorry hire slip, advances in cash, NEFT, diesel or FASTag, the owner’s PAN and TDS under Section 194C, RTGS details, balance approval after POD, and broker-wise ageing of what you owe. VCS Transport ERP does all of this in one system, with a WhatsApp button on every broker screen and a loss warning before the truck moves. See transport broker software.
Can VCS run on our own server instead of the cloud?
Yes. VCS Transport ERP is available on the cloud, hosted by VCS so there is nothing to install, or on-premise on the transporter’s own server for those who want to keep the data in-house. Both run the same software.
Can I upload my existing data from Excel?
Yes. Customers, consignors, brokers, vehicles, drivers and party rates can be uploaded in bulk from Excel, and LRs, freight bills and diesel bills also have Excel upload.
Who is VCS software for?
Indian transporters of every kind: truck brokers and commission agents, fleet owners, part-load and parcel operators, FTL transporters with corporate clients and container operators, from a single branch to multi-branch companies. VCS has served 500+ transport businesses since 1990.
