    DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

    FREIGHT INTRODUCTION

    Freight is a ma jor cost head of the compa ny. Every compa ny puts an extr a eff orto

    red uce this h ead to the best possibl e extent in order to red uce its cost of the prod uct.

    The Compa ny pays two ty pes of f reight whi ch includes f reight inward and f reight

    outward

    Freight inward is the amount that is pai d by the compa ny f or acquir ing good s lik e r aw

    mater ial, a dvert ising good s or f or br inging finished good s in the compa ny. Lik e wis e

    the compa ny purchas es su gar , Ca r bon Di O xide f or manufa ctur ing var ious ty pes of bever ages in its p rod uct port f olio.

    Freight Ou tward is the sum that is pai d by the compa ny f or deliver ing good s by the

    tr ansporter s a t the distr ibu tors outlet. The f reight r ates a re previously deter mined by

    the compa ny wi th the help of a contr act/ agree ment whi ch is ma de to acquire ser vices

    on a year ly basis .

    The r ates f or var ious s tations are negot iated and af ter the proce ss of negot iation the

    agree ment is ma de or rene wed f or providing ser vices. The agree ment includes va r ious

    ter ms a nd cond itions whi ch is appli cabl e f rom wh en the tr uck is hi red f or a s tation till

    the time it doe s not reaches the destination.

    Lik e one of the cond ition is of detent ion whi ch m eans that the tr uck sh ould be unloaded

    by the distr ibu tor wi thin 24 h our s of reaching the distr ibu tor s outlet if the tr uck is

    detained f or more than 24 h our s then the compa ny has to pay extr a charge s to the

    tr ansporter so as to remuner ate the labour empl oyed by the tr ansporter.

    The amount paid in lieu of detent ion de pend s up on the load size the tr uck is taking

    to the distr ibu tors outlet. Lik ewis e if the load size of 300 350 cases (cr ates) the

    amount of detent ion is Rs .300 f or the fir st three days and Rs. 400 there onwards. If

    the load size is of 351 600 cases then Rs. 450 f or the fir st three days and Rs. 500

    there onwards

    Freight Outward Proce ssi ng R elief p rovides duty relief on imp orts f rom third

    Entering Billing in Computer

    This p roced ure is us ed by the acco unts rece ivabl e cler k to compl ete daily billi ngs to

    customer s.

    The Procedures :

    Step-1: Shipping Paperwork - Find the shippi ng pap er wor k in the shipp er s

    box in the mail roo m. The pap er wor k sh ould include a ha ndwr itten shippi ng log, as

    well as whi te and green co pies of the bills of lading. Se pa r ate these doc ument s into

    diff erent piles.

    Step-2: Verify Bills of Lading [or Air W ay Bill f or air shipm ent] - Ver if y that there is a bill of lading f or every order listed on the shippi ng log, and also that all

    bills of la ding are lis ted on the log. Then put the bills of la ding in order , fi r st by

    customer numb er and then by order numb er (if there is m ore than one order per

    customer ). Next , check the carr ier colum n of the shippi ng log. Mo st order s will

    have Cus tomer Pickup lis ted next to them. Any acco mpa nying f reight sheet is

    filled out by the shippi ng de pa rtment. These are usuall y turned in ahead of time and

    k e pt in a fil e. Pull out the app ro pr iate sheets, becaus e they are needed f or invoicing.

    Step-3: Review Freight Sheets - R eview the f reight sheets. If the bill of la ding

    reads Pa cking List on the to p, the order has al ready been pick ed by the shippi ng

    de pa rtment. If i t reads Cus tomer Order Pick lis t a nd the shipm ent quantities a re

    handwr itten in the blanks, the order still mus t be pick ed. To pick an order , go to

    SHIP i n the sof tware, enter the issu e ty pe, and then enter the customer numb er. If

    the quantity showing on the screen f or an item ma tches the quantity handwr itten in

    the bill of la ding, p ress ENTER to pick that item. If the quantities diff er , ty pe the

    handwr itten quantity into the order and press ENTER . Pick all of the items on the

    order , and then proceed to the next order.

    Step-4: List All Picked Orders - The resul ting lis t should include all the order s

    in the stack, plus a ny order s shipp ed out today. In this s te p, go through the list and

    choose only those order s that were shipp ed the previous day and f or whi ch there are

    bills of la ding.

    It may be diffi cult to deter mine the order numb er s f or some shipm ent s, b ecaus e

    there may be more than one sequence numb er f or the sam e customer order numb er.

    You ma y need to look a t all of the order s wi th a pa rticula r order numb er to find the

    correct one. To pick one , mak e sure the item numb er s and quantities ma tch the bill

    of la ding.

    Step-5: Check Pricing - Check the pr icing f or each order and ver if y that there is a

    charge f or pall ets and shippi ng. Enter the customer order numb er and sequence

    numb er to check p r ices. Each customer has a p r ice sheet in the pr ice book that lists

    current pr ices f or all of the items i t order s. The pr ice sheet will als o tell you wh ether

    or not to charge that customer f or pall ets. This is als o where the f reight sheet is

    used. Check the f reight code on the order and mak e sure that it matches wha t the

    shippi ng de pa rtment has w r itten on the f reight sheet. If the code is p re pai d, do not

    charge the customer f or f reight. If i t is p re pay and add, you mus t add the amount

    on the f reight sheet to the invoice. If the order was s ent collect , there will b e no

    f reight sheet , becaus e the customer is a rr anging and paying f or its own f reight.

    The next proce ss is recurring invoices issuance R ead on.

    ConclusionGone are the days wh en tr aining was a 2 h our proce ss on the fir st day of the

    jo b. Tr aining has tr ansf or med f rom a n add-on funct ion to a core funct ion of

    compa nies. It has b eco me more of a s cience with systematic r ules and f or mats

    guiding the compa nies on how to go about tr aining and develo pm ent. And that is

    the way it should be.

    Provides comprehensive passiv e inf r astr ucture solutions to wireless teleco m pla yer s

    both in India as w ell as over seas. Focusing on inno vation and R&D, ATPL has

    develo ped a r ange of inno vative prod ucts that help p rovide cost-eff ect ive, energy-

    efficient , integr ated , passiv e inf r astr ucture solutions, to teleco m compa nies. It

    should be borne in mind that the too l appli ed in the study to analysis the effi ciency and eff ect ivene ss i n financial ma nagement are most app ro pr iate one s.

    The future would demand more f rom the empl oyee s as w ell as the compa nies in

    ter ms of p rod uctivi ty. New technology , mul ti-taski ng, group culture, etc. will b e

    more emphasiz ed upon. This m eans tr aining and develo pm ent is going to be even

    more imp ortant, compl ex and r igoro us. Compa nies al ready f ore see this a nd are

    already in pre pa r ations to mak e their staff b etter equipp ed. On this w e conc lude our

    re port with the f ollowing word s E ducation end s wi th s chool bu t learning end s wi thlif e.

    Freight tr ansportation is i ntegr al to incre ased econo mic develo pm ent and

    improved quali ty of lif e. A thoro ugh u nder stand ing of f reight movement is k ey to

    enhancing these asp ect s of our region and in ident if ying ways to imp rove

    tr ansportation system effi ciency. Since the ma jor ity of f reight is shipp ed by tr uck

    investment in highwa y and br idge project s sh ould f ollow that modal choice. Rail

    and air are cr itical to some industr ies and have to be mai ntained albeit at a lower

    level of investment. In gener al, pas t and present TIP p roject s hav e bene fited

    those corr idor s whi ch hav e the highest f reight volum es. The resul ts of this s tudy

    will assis t the Northwest RPO s T r ansportation Advisory Commi ttee in pr ior itizing

    project s on future TIPs and the Long Range Pla n.

    SUGGESTIONS Now I w ould lik e to give the suggestions sp eed up passi ng of bills, s o that the

    compa ny can pass m ore and more bills i n the minimum time. Fir st and f ore most

    thing whi ch con sum e more and more time f or passi ng of bills i n the whole

    proce ss is the checking the r aw ma ter ial b y quali ty de pa rtment. So my

    suggestion is f or quali ty de pa rtment is to check the more and more r aw ma ter ial

    in the minimum time. So physical checking of r aw ma ter ial sh ould be fas t by the

    quali ty de pa rtment. I m s tudy of these compa ny. Analysis that ter ms &

    cond ition wor king cond itions of the empl oyee s that are r anking order is s emantic

    f or ms treated as w or k er s. So study about the de pa rtment & pla nt . Tak e my

    advice,Dont get the bell cur ve in per f or mance app r aisals . It is one of the bigge st

    blu nder s of the cent ury and need s to sto p now I assum e you really are not

    awa re of s tatistics wh en ask ed that question. The bell cur ve will do more har m

    than good in your hand. So leave it and try the 5 p oint system.
