December 7, 2015
Christmas is coming - and together with you we look back on an eventful and exciting year 2015. If you have visited us at one of the numerous trade fairs and events this year, you have certainly learned about our new umbrella brand "TISLOG Logistics & Mobility" under which we have combined our various telematics solutions. Meanwhile, we have introduced new technologies in many businesses of our customers and are eager to see how 2016 will develop. An important ongoing issue is to create synergies between our different business projects and to continue to work on innovative, customer-friendly solutions and services. In this newsletter we therefore introduce a "TIS-classic", which is probably not known already to everyone: The TISLOG mobile function "collective processing" enables your drivers to process summed shipments or delivery addresses, which then can be processed and acknowledged within one process.
This clever TIS solution accelerates smooth handovers of shipments and saves time. We also introduce one of our new employees in software development - and give you a brief overview of the most interesting dates in 2016.
Learn more in this newsletter - and look forward to some Christmas recipes from our employees - guaranteed kitchen tested!

Easily create collective acknowledgement receipts with TISLOG mobile logistics software
Via the function "collective processing" drivers can combine shipments or shipping addresses in TISLOG mobile and thus handle the shipments or several delivery acknowledgements in one process. This saves time and accelerates the smooth handovers of shipments.
In the TISLOG mobile system, the driver has two ways to trigger the collective processing. Either he marks two orders manually or scans a two shipments to combine them. During further process he can easily edit the various data sets as one job - all other operations, including signature receipt are duplicated automatically and stored in the combined orders. This saves time and reduces error probabilities.
He can summarize two levels: The stop level at different addresses and the shipment level on several pallets that have been delivered to an address.
Collective acknowledgement receipts for multiple deliveries to one address
If several shipments are delivered to one recipient, he needs to acknowledge reception only once. This saves time and produces a higher acceptance by the customer who only needs to sign once now.
Collective processing of different addresses
In cargo traffic, the drivers are not only challenged to handle many stops quickly, but they also usually have to cope with a low address data quality. This means, for example, 4-5 address variants with different spellings of one physical delivery address. With TISLOG mobile collective processing these records can be summarized conveniently for further processing by the driver with just a few clicks or scans. For each data set all parameters such as loading tackle, delivery notes and other notes are later duplicated and stored.
Do you have questions about our mobile order management software? Our sales team will be happy to answer.
Our new employee in software development: Marius Thesing
Since September 1st Marius Thesing is working in our software development (with a focus on the server area). After graduation, he was initially trained as an IT specialist for system integration at the Regional Association of Westphalia-Lippe (LWL) in Münster. There he was mainly active in server and network administration.
Subsequently Marius Thesing studied computer sciences and software systems at the Westphalian College in Bocholt. Last summer he wrote his thesis with us and successfully finished his studies. Subject of his thesis was "Custom compilation of statistics, including order management and telematics data". We are delighted to have Marius Thesing in our team.
Welcome, Marius!

The best and fastest Christmas cookies
Ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 500 g flour
- 100 g margarine
- 2 tablespoons honey or favorite jelly
- 500 g sugar
- 2 tsp gingerbread spice
- 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
- 75 g orange peel
- 75 g candied lemon
- 200 g almonds or nuts, chopped
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tsp baking soda
- possibly milk
How to do it:
-
Mix all ingredients. If the dough is not supple already, add a little milk to the suitable consistency for further processing.
-
Form a roll and cut the roll into slices - each 1 cm thick.
-
Since the biscuits expand a lot during baking, leave a wide margin between the dough slices on the baking sheet and bake them at 180 degrees Celsius for 15 - 18 minutes.
The cookies taste best, if they are stored for a few days in an airtight container, allowing them to soften a bit.
Have fun trying the recipes!
