If you know the name of the page, just type it there and click the '''Go''' button. If you want to search for any text in the page, click the '''Search''' button instead, or just hit enter for ''CALIDUS'' Assist to do it for you. Typically, as you type, the search bar will quickly offer you some matches that might be what you're looking for - if it is, just click the suggestion and Assist will take you there.

			Some tips on searching:

			* If you enter multiple words (like "fixed drop scheduling") without quotes, the search routine will find you pages that match any of the words, but ordered in the most likely order (i.e. with most matches of most words)
			* If there is a page called "fixed drop scheduling", you will be taken straight to it.
			* If you enter your search with quotes i.e. "fixed drop scheduling", it will find that specific phrase in the pages, rather than any of the words.
			* If you enter plus instead of space i.e. fixed+drop+scheduling, you will only get pages in the results that have all 3 words in them, anywhere in the page, in any order.
			* You can also control partial word matching with as asterisk. So let's say you are searching for a parameter called AUTO_SCHED something-or-other. Searching for AUTO_SCHED will not bring back any results, as there are no full words or phrases like that. But if you enter AUTO_SCHED_* instead, it will search for words ''starting with'' "AUTO_SCHED" and bring you back some matches.

			=== Custom Device Styling ===
			As part of most implementations, we offer to style the mobile device closer to your needs. Typically, the standard setup of the application and styling results in your logo being displayed on the device, with most information displayed as required.

			However, almost all of the application can be styled to some degree, in terms of size, colour, whether the items are displayed or not and in some cases position on the screen.

			The most common styling elements concern the following:
			* Job List
			* Collections/Deliveries
			** Container List
			** Product List
			* Services
			** Service Products
			* General
			** Terms

			Note that you can configure or remove elements or add functionality to screens through the standard Site, Job Group and UDF configuration.

			== Other Systems ==
			=== Providing Customers Tracking Information ===
			''CALIDUS'' ePOD will execute your jobs for you, provide you with all the information gathered from the customer and even automatically email reports of the finished jobs to your customers, if you want it to. But what if you need more?

			OBS Logistics Ltd also provide ''CALIDUS'' Portal TTM - a track and trace module that you can provide access to your customers so that they can:
			* See ETAs for their jobs.
			* Track the vehicle delivering their jobs.
			* Query the quantities delivered or collected.
			* View and print the completion report.

			''CALIDUS'' Portal is also a really useful tool for your transport team, to help them plan and visualise the amount of work that they have to complete, and your customer service team will appreciate the available tools for them to help with their workflow when dealing with customer queries.

			Ask your OBS Logistics representative about ''CALIDUS'' Portal and see what it can do for you, or visit our website for an overview:

			https://www.obs-logistics.com/obs-logistics/our-software/track-and-trace

			* [[EPOD-TTM Interface]]


			=== Communicating with Other Systems ===
			You may be using ''CALIDUS'' ePOD with your own planning system, say an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, a warehouse management system WMS or transport management system (TMS).

			OBS Logistics Ltd offers a full suite of management solutions across a range of different activities and ''CALIDUS'' ePOD works with them. Ask your OBS Logistics representative about the full ''CALIDUS'' suite of products, or visit our website here:

			https://www.obs-logistics.com


			''CALIDUS'' ePOD can receive loads, jobs and set-up (standing) data from your planning system - we support proprietary CSV and XLS uploads, as well as industry-standard XML web services so your system can send this information to us without you having to key these jobs in manually.

			When jobs are complete, ''CALIDUS'' ePOD can automatically send out updates to these system, through a variety of industry standard mechanisms.


			Your customers may also have systems that they want updating, for example, pallet network tracking systems. ''CALIDUS'' ePOD has standard interfaces for the following customer systems:
			* Dynamics NAV.
			* Palletforce.
			* Pall-Ex.
			* TPN - The Pallet Network.
			* Europa Shipping Services.
			* GAP.
			* Palletline.
			* Hazchem.
			* TomTom WEBFLEET.

			You can configure a job to update any number of systems by creating export configurations and attaching them together against a job group or your site, or even against an owner of the job, so you can update all your customers with the right information, when they need it.


			If the system you are interested in isn't on the list, don't worry - it may be that the other standard interfaces the product supports will get what you need. For example, the system can push the completion reports out with some basic information, so they can be added to your document management system.


			Failing that, OBS Logistics can develop an interface just for you - contact your OBS Logistics representative for more information.
