What is Part Load (PTL) management software?
Part Load (PTL) management software helps transporters digitize Parchun bookings, route planning across hubs, consolidated LR (lorry receipt) billing, and branch-wise collections for partial-truckload operations in India.
Core workflows PTL teams should standardize
- Booking capture: consignor, consignee, weight, pieces, and freight rate at origin branch
- Hub movement: inward/outward registers when loads move between depots
- LR consolidation: group part-load LRs into customer invoices without manual re-entry
- Collections: to-pay, paid, and billing-party outstanding by route and agent
Common PTL billing mistakes
- Duplicate LR numbers across branches
- Freight charges entered at booking but not updated after re-weighing
- Settlement reports that do not match LR-level supporting records
