| Trucking software designed
to meet the needs of the small company with 1 to 10 trucks.
Accounting
A full featured accounting program, designed specifically
for The Truckers Helper, is included with the program. This
module tracks all your trucking expenses and includes credit
accounts, a check register, accounts receivable, accounts
payable, billing and more.
Mileage Reporting
An easy to use mileage entry system records all miles run
for each trip.
Log Checking
The program includes a full featured log verification program
for use by drivers and small fleet owners. You can use the
program to be sure that your logs (or your driver's logs)
are legal. The program includes a DOT acceptable log page
that can be used to keep your logs in the computer. This
page can be printed out, as can the monthly recap. The program
also includes automatic log letters for small fleet owners.

This feature provides you with a quick and easy way to balance
your settlements and enter your income into the program.
It ensures you're paid for reimbursed expenses, all trips
run, etc.

information on customers. This includes space for directions,
contact names, etc.
Driver Records
Keep your own driving record, or those of your drivers,
in the complete driver record system.
Fuel Reports
The program tracks gallons purchased in each state and miles
run by state. Reports are available for an individual truck
or a fleet of trucks.
IFTA Reports
Take the work out of IFTA reporting. The program provides
you with a complete IFTA report detailing all information
required for IFTA filing. The program meets all IFTA and
DOT requirements for fuel tax tracking and recording.
Truck Maintenance
Records are kept on all periodic maintenance, and future
maintenance can be scheduled as well. Using your intervals,
popup reminders inform you when a truck is within 500 miles
of scheduled maintenance. A tire tracking feature also allows
you to keep a record of tire serial numbers and tread readings.
Trailer Maintenance
This feature keeps records on your trailer and provides
reminders when regularly scheduled maintenance is coming
due.
Inventory
A handy and informative inventory section provides you with
records of what you have on hand. Includes minimum quantities
and prints out a ""shopping list"" of
all items below the minimum quantity.
Billing
The program supports billing using quantity, miles, weight
or a flat rate and includes most other trucking specific
types of billing. Custom fields also allow the addition
of user specific charges.
Load Tracking
Enter your pickup and delivery points, scheduled pickup
and delivery dates and times, and add new shippers/receivers
on the fly. This page is designed to speed load entry as
well as truck and driver assignment.
Dispatching
This feature uses the information from the loads section
to track current & pre-booked loads, and provides you
with a check call section to keep track of all check calls
and related notes.
Load Board
This feature replaces the old white board with available
loads you've booked by not assigned, loads waiting for pickup,
loads enroute and loads for any particular truck. Keep track
of and schedule loads with the built in load board.
Trailer Tracker
For the small fleet owner, here's a simple and fast way
to keep track of trailer locations. If you do your own billing
the Trailer Tracker will automatically keep up with trailer
locations from the pickup and delivery records.
Pallet Tracker
This feature works in conjunction with the dispatch section,
or can stand alone. Enter pallet information along with
dispatch information when drivers call in. Tracks pallets
given, received and bad by pickup/delivery location.
Payroll System
The Truckers Helper features a complete payroll system designed
specifically for trucking companies. Pay based on mileages,
percentages or salary. Import information automatically
from the mileage and billing sections to automate your payroll,
or enter payroll items manually.
Additional Options
Routing
Based on the ProMilestm Truck Routing system, our optional
routing module totally automates your mileage entry and
provides IFTA and DOT acceptable routing and mileage records
for fuel taxes. Also includes load rating, complete driving
instructions, etc.
Fuel Optimization
For an additional fee, fuel optimization will give you access
to fuel prices updated daily via the Internet. Detailed
routing includes where to purchase fuel, gallons to purchase,
etc. It is estimated that using the Fuel Optimization will
save you anywhere from $25 to well over $100 per month on
fuel costs.
Network Capable
The Truckers Helper program and data can optionally be shared
over your existing peer-to-peer network. Currently there
is a limit of 10 concurrent users. |
