One record · not five systems
Logistics software is judged by what lives on one record
Logistics software is the whole operation on one system — the cargo, the floor it sits on, the
money it earns, the paper it needs, and the customer asking where it is. The test is not how long
the module list is. It is how much of that sits on one record, and how much you re-key into a
second system before you go home.
Linbis keeps it on the record. One shipment record carries air, ocean, ground and
multimodal, import through cross-trade, on stage flows your own admins design. The warehouse
receipt and the release that touch its cargo are records in the same workspace, and the scan gun
on the floor keeps working when the signal drops. And one AI layer reads across all of it: inbound
email sorted into 24 classifications, and 35 action categories you set to one of four autonomy
levels — nothing acts on its own until you raise one.
Usually a separate systemOn the Linbis record
The warehouse floorA WMS with its own item master.
Receipts, releases, zones and locations sit beside the shipment. The scan app keeps taking scans with no signal and replays them in order, 50 per request — and a scan that already landed does not land twice.
The booksAn accounting package, reconciled at month-end.
A 91-account freight chart of accounts is seeded when the workspace is created, and the ledger refuses to post an entry whose debits and credits do not match. Receivables and payables both live here — storage days and per-piece handling bill out of on-hand inventory straight onto an AR invoice.
Profit per fileA spreadsheet, built after the fact.
Income and expense sit on the same charge row, each in its own currency, with the profit and the profit percentage stored on that row. Shipment P&L breaks the file down by charge line.
Each transport modeOne system, or one module, per mode.
Air, ocean, ground and multimodal are one field on one shipment record — the same screen and the same charge rows, whichever it is. Your own admins design the stage flow per mode and per operation: import, export, domestic, cross-trade.
The paperworkA document tool holding its own templates.
More than 90 document templates ship in the library, over 75 of them rendering live from the record. Forms Studio is a separate browser designer — start from one of 22 ready-made templates or a blank page, and bind up to 288 fields on a shipment document.
The customer askingEmail, or a portal bolted on the side.
Eighteen branded portal screens, scoped to the parties on the file — shipments, documents, the cargo you are holding for them, delivery scheduling, approvals — and a comment marked internal is never read out to them.
Every row above is a screen you can open in the product. The receipt that put the
cargo on the floor is the receipt the pickup order names, and the row your customer opens in the
portal.
