What it does
This module extends Viindoo Fleet Booking to support cargo transportation
while reusing the same booking item, routing and capacity control logic
that is already used for passengers.
It introduces a generic fleet.cargo model that inherits from
fleet.booking.item so that each cargo record becomes a first-class
booking item that can be attached to trips, waypoints and VRP
optimisation in the same way as passenger items.
The design is intentionally generic so it can be extended later for both:
- Freight and trucking companies transporting cargo for external customers.
- Normal companies transporting their own internal cargo, which can be
further integrated with stock moves for inbound, inter-warehouse and
outbound deliveries in separate add-on modules.
Key Features
- Generic cargo line model
- New model fleet.cargo that _inherits from fleet.booking.item.
- Each cargo record can be routed and scheduled alongside other booking items.
- Ready to attach extra business fields (stock move, picking, sale line, etc)
in future vertical add-ons.
- Unified weight and volume capacity for passenger and cargo
- Cargo allows defining product-based or manual weight/volume per unit.
- Total cargo weight and volume are computed and aggregated on
fleet.booking.item.
- Existing vehicle capacity checks (payload and volume) are reused
without changing the original algorithms.
- Support for internal and external cargo bookings
- Extends booking types to include external cargo scenarios.
- Keeps internal cargo paths available for in-house logistics.
- Allows configuring vehicles that are specialised for cargo bookings
via existing domains and capacities.
- User interface for cargo management
- Dedicated menu and views for managing cargo items.
- Extra fields on booking form to show total demand weight and volume
when the booking transport type is cargo.
- Cargo lines are embedded in the booking form so planners can see
both items and their aggregated capacity impact.
