Depot

Purpose

A depot is considered to be a sub location of a plant. In the laundry industry
other common titels are given to depots such as; branches, service centers, sub locations.
They mostly have in common that it is not a processing facility but it is seen as a location
from which routes are managed for a certain geographical area.
An example: The processing plant is in New York. From there most of the
Routes are driven. Some of the routes are driven from Allentown (on a distance from New York).
Allentown is entered as being a depot from where the goods are shipped to and from the plant.
If Routes are defined underneath a plant, it is possible to link routes to the particular depots. This enables to generate route load lists, invoices, etcetera on a depot level (see also Route Status Control).
