Delivery points are automatically assigned to the appropriate delivery notes, which significantly reduces manual effort and errors. Each rack receives a digital ID that completely documents all movements such as check-in and check-out as well as references to delivery notes and departure times.

An interactive map shows the current locations of the racks outside the factory in real time. With the help of advanced search filters, racks can be found by customer, address or duration outside, which significantly simplifies planning and retrieval.

All relevant frame information, such as delivery note, customer and departure time, is presented in a clear table. Filtering and sorting functions enable quick analysis, while continuous monitoring automatically highlights overdue returns.

The RFID add-on automates the check-in and check-out of racks using passive RFID tags that recognize movement without manual input. This prevents scan errors and significantly speeds up processes.

With LPWAN geolocation via Sigfox or LoRa, IoT trackers send location data even in areas with low network coverage. This continuous monitoring is ideal for long-term external tracking and supports efficient return planning and cost reduction.

The system automatically creates scheduled reports that are sent by email, for example on overdue racks or expected returns. Intelligent alerts provide information in the event of anomalies such as late returns and enable proactive action.

First, the racks are loaded during the production phase and automatically linked to the corresponding delivery note. When shipped, the racks leave the factory and their movement is detected via RFID or manual scan. While they're outside, the system logs location and duration and marks overdue returns. After returning, the availability of the racks is updated automatically or manually so that they are immediately ready for use again.
