#### **Module Objective**

#### The **Shipment Plan vs Actual Shipment Report** module serves as a performance analysis tool to compare the planned shipping schedule with its actual execution data. This report is crucial for measuring on-time performance, route efficiency, and the performance of the shipping team.

### **1. Report Parameters (Filter)**

#### The main page of this module is a form containing various parameters to customize the report that will be generated.

#### Here is an explanation for each parameter:

- #### **Date**:
    
    
    - #### Specify the date range in the **From** and **To** fields to see the plan vs. actual comparison for that period.
- #### **Vehicle**:
    
    
    - #### Select **All** to display all vehicles, or **Selected** to focus on one or more specific vehicles.

### **2. Steps to Generate the Report**

#### **Step 1: Set Report Parameters**

#### Define the date range and the vehicle filter (if needed).

#### **Step 2: Generate the Report**

#### After all parameters are set, click one of the two buttons at the bottom:

- #### **\[Display Report\]**: To preview the comparison report directly on your screen.
- #### **\[Export to MS Excel\]**: To download the report data in an Excel file format.

### **3. Reading the Report (Report Content)**

#### The generated report will be a side-by-side comparison table between planned data and actual data.

#### This report is divided into three main sections for each trip:

1. #### **Planned**: Displays the schedule that was planned, such as **Start Work, End Work,** and **Distance**.
2. #### **Actual**: Displays the actual execution data, such as **Start Work, End Work,** and actual **Distance**.
3. #### **Difference**: Calculates the variance between the plan and the actual, which highlights any delays or differences in distance.

### **Tips & Important Notes**

- #### This report is a very important **performance evaluation tool** for a **Logistics Manager**.
- #### Use the **Difference** data to identify problems in the shipping process, such as inefficient routes, frequent delays, or vehicle issues.
- #### This report's data is pulled from a comparison between the **Shipment Planning** module and actual data that might be input by the driver or a tracking system.
