You're on Route 52 with XBE. For 52 straight Mondays during 2025, we're announcing something new and exciting.
We've reached Mile Marker 8, Material Site Inventory Locations with Related Material Types. If you manage material sites or dispatch drivers to pick up materials, this stop is for you.
We all know the frustration of a driver arriving at a large material site and spending valuable time searching for the right pile or silo.
With this new feature, you can create specific locations within each material site, complete with names, precise map coordinates, and the associated material type.
When you select a material while creating a job production plan, the system automatically identifies the associated inventory location if there's only one for that material type.
If there are multiple locations for the same material, you can explicitly select the right one, ensuring everyone knows exactly where to go.
Drivers will see these assigned inventory locations directly on their active driver day, reducing loading errors and wasted time.
It's that simple. One more hassle removed from the work of dispatchers, drivers, and material site personnel.
Stay tuned next week for Mile Marker 9.
