Smart Dispatch
Outbound shipping in the circular economy means many product states, many destinations, and flows that don't run in a straight line. The shipping desk uses the portal to:
Each shipment stays connected to the inventory it came from and the invoice it creates.
Dispatch Portals bring outbound shipments, documents, and carriers together so the right material leaves with the right paperwork, whether it is going to a customer, a partner, or another one of your sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Loop ERP is built on NetSuite, the same platform used by enterprise operators, multi-site businesses, and high-volume processors. It handles multi-entity accounting, consolidated reporting across locations, high daily transaction volumes, and complex settlement structures without slowing down. If you are running one site today and five next year, you do not need to replatform to keep up.
Implementation time varies, depending on the number of locations, material streams, and integrations involved (scales, cameras, payment processors, third-party logistics). The Loop ERP team handles data migration, workflow configuration, integration, and training in parallel, and we work directly with your operations leads, not just IT, so the system matches how your business actually runs on day one.
Loop ERP provides implementation support, training for operations and finance teams, and ongoing technical support after go-live. Clients get access to documentation, how-to guides, and direct consultation with our team for troubleshooting, configuration changes, and new workflow setup. Support is handled by people who understand the difference between a ticketing issue and a grading exception, not a generic help desk working from a script.
Loop ERP runs on Oracle NetSuite, so your data lives inside enterprise cloud infrastructure with encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access, and audit logging on every transaction. Ticket edits, grade changes, and settlement adjustments all carry a user stamp and timestamp. If a record is overridden or reclassified, you can see who did it and when, which matters for disputes, audits, and internal controls.
Customer sales, returns to suppliers, warranty exchanges, recall returns, shipments to processors and refurbishers, deliveries to downstream recycling partners, and transfers between your own facilities. Each runs through the same portal, so the shipping desk works from one list instead of switching between tools for each type of outbound move.
Yes. The portal generates shipping labels, manifests, bills of lading, customs forms, and condition statements based on the material and the destination. Because the documents come from the same records as the shipment and inventory, the paperwork reflects what was actually picked and loaded, which reduces rejected loads and billing corrections later.
Warehouse teams pick based on grade, certification status, or last inspection date, all pulled from live inventory. If material has been regraded or failed inspection, the portal reflects that before a load is built. This helps keep off-spec material from shipping to a customer who ordered a different grade.
Dispatch Portals focus on what ships: picking, packing, documents, carriers, and outbound or transfer shipments. Dispatch and Driver Management focuses on your own drivers and trucks: routes, stops, driver assignments, GPS tracking, and fleet usage. Operations that ship by third-party carriers may rely mostly on portals, while those running their own fleet often use both.
