Oracle Transportation Management Cloud works really well if flexibility at different planning levels is needed. The orders can be planned as early as upon order placement or as late as inventory allocation. It's fairly easy to stay in sync with an ERP system to ensure consistency in order/route/delivery statuses as well as allocate freight charges accurately to self invoice vendor freights for payments. If the cost breakdown is at individual SKU level for various temperature/storage conditions, or if charges need to be dynamically mapped to different general ledger accounts for cost allocation, the software provides limited options.

We recently implemented Oracle Transportation Management Cloud to manage our transportation planning, execution, and settlement. Module went live in February 2019 and since then we are proudly saying it is a good product to implement.
