Bourque Logistics Introduces RAILPort™
Rail shippers can now build custom reports using BL's RAILPort™ Report Writer.
THE WOODLANDS, Texas, June 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Bourque Logistics (BL), the leader in logistics software for industrial shippers, introduces RAILPort™, a new web-based report writing tool that allows customers to create and distribute custom reports. RAILPort™ utilizes the most up-to-date data pulled from the Bourque Logistics database, so users receive the most current information.
RAILPort™ is extremely user-friendly, allowing users to quickly build reports from pre-written queries that span loading and shipment status, railcar profile and compliance, and freight cost and payment templates across all BL software modules.
Using RAILPort™, you can select and filter data fields, re-size and sort columns and their order, and set breaks and totals. Users can then define a distribution schedule to others via email PDF, Excel, or "Live-Link" connects that re-query on demand. RAILPort™ also provides embedded RAILChannel® training videos so users can learn the functions quickly.
This convenient application also provides users with the ease of creating reports that will allow a non-transportation user to enter search criteria such as origin, destination, commodity, car number and train ID to display all pertinent rates, car trace or unit train information in a user-friendly format.
"This newest addition to our software suite provides our clients versatile and robust report writing capabilities with the added benefit of automatic distribution to those who require up-to-date reports.
In particular, RAILPort's Live-Link function provides the most recent data that "canned" reports do not," commented Steve Bourque, president, Bourque Logistics.
