Module Purpose

The Region Settings module serves as master data for grouping several Rayons (smaller delivery areas like cities or ports) into a single, larger Region, such as a country or continent. The main goal is to create a logical geographical hierarchy, allowing management to perform analysis, planning, and set logistics policies at a macro level.

1. Main View (Region Settings)

The main page displays all the Regions that have been defined in the system.

View Explanation

  • Filter: Allows for a quick search based on Region Code.

  • List Table:

    • Region Code Number: A unique code for each Region (e.g., R001, R002).

    • Description: The name of the Region (e.g., INDONESIA, SOUTH KOREA, VIETNAM).

  • Action Buttons:

    • Add: Opens the form to create a new Region.

    • Delete: Deletes the selected Region.

2. Add Region Page

This form is used to define a new Region and associate the Rayons that are its members.

View Explanation

  • Region Code*: The unique code to be created for the new Region.

  • Region Name*: A descriptive name for the Region (e.g., "Southeast Asia," "Western Europe").

  • UnRegion: This list box displays all Rayons (from the Rayon Settings module) that have not yet been allocated to any Region.

  • Region: This list box displays all Rayons that have already been allocated to the Region being created or edited.

3. Steps to Create a Region

  1. Ensure all specific delivery areas (Rayons) have been created first in the Rayon Settings module.

  2. From the main page, click the Add button.

  3. Fill in the Region Code and Region Name.

  4. In the UnRegion box, select the Rayons you want to include in this new Region.

  5. Use the transfer function to move the selected Rayons to the Region box.

  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all relevant Rayons are in the Region.

  7. Click Save.

4. Integrated Workflow & Business Process

  • Market and Sales Segmentation: The sales team can use Region data to analyze sales performance per Region. This helps in setting regional sales targets and marketing strategies.

  • Logistics Pricing Policy: The company can set different pricing policies or shipping rates for each Region. For example, the shipping rate to the "Europe" Region might differ from the "Asia" Region.

  • High-Level Reporting: This module allows management to view aggregated reports on shipping, costs, and logistics efficiency per Region, providing a broader strategic view compared to reports per Rayon.

  • Supply Chain Management: For global companies, grouping by Region helps in managing the supply chain. For example, a warehouse in Singapore can be assigned to serve all shipments to the "Southeast Asia" Region.

5. Tips & Important Notes

  • The hierarchical structure between Regions and Rayons should be well-planned to align with the company's operational and reporting structure.

  • Use consistent and clear naming for Region Names so they are easily understood by all departments.

  • This module is very important for strategic analysis, so its management should be handled centrally by the team responsible for logistics or commercial strategy.
