McLeod Software, a leading provider of dispatch, accounting and operations fleet management software for the trucking industry has announced the newest and most advanced version of its enterprise transportation management system.

The new features of LoadMaster Version 8.1 will improve a motor carrier's ability to manage business processes for optimum efficiency and profitability.
Tom McLeod, president and founder of McLeod Software, said, "Today's LoadMaster software can run on one server or across multiple servers and on virtually any hardware or software platform. It has also given us the flexibility to accelerate release cycles, delivering two major product releases per year, each adding powerful new features into the product. Ultimately, the benefit is that there are more features, more choices and more capabilities for our customers."
There are several new features and enhancements in LoadMaster Version 8.1 including:

• Recurring Orders Scheduler - this user-defined scheduler allows customer to set up daily, weekly or monthly trips in advance allowing for better resource planning. Helps a carrier improve service for dedicated operations and for high-volume customers.
• Round-trip Functionality - streamlines functions for improved visibility and execution of round-trip operations, a common model handled by dedicated carriers.
• Local Mileage Table - used to help with contracts negotiated with specific mileage requirements, this feature provides users with the ability to enter specific mileage on routine trips where the actual or agreed-to miles differ from mileage in standard lookup programs. It is especially useful for deliveries in rural areas.
In addition to product and feature enhancements, Version 8.1 hosts new optional interfaces with third-party vendors including: CarrierWeb mobile communications, Qualcomm Hours of Service, Qualcomm T2 Trailer Tracking, TCH Interactive Fuel and Teletrac FleetDirector mobile communications.
