RITA enables operators to visualize the project's country on a world map, displaying the movement and status of cargo throughout the operation. Various symbols and icons represent different aspects of cargo movement and storage. For instance, symbols like planes, trucks, and pack animals indicate the types of transportation used to move cargo. Similarly, other symbols represent warehouses, ports, and customer addresses.
Colored Circles
Colored circles in the map represent stock information in the cluster-operated facility:
Gray Circle represents the “Cargo Awaiting Collection”:
This section lists consignments pending collection either from the customer's address or a transshipment point. The Yellow Circle represents “Stock Available to Dispatch.” This section records all stock currently in storage. Even if items have been dispatched and receipt has been confirmed at the destination, the consignment remains counted as stock available to dispatch until it is officially released to the customer.
Red Circle represents “Expected Cargo Deliveries”:
This section includes cargo that the customer has yet to deliver, whether to a cluster-controlled warehouse and/or a transshipment point.
Blue Circle represents “Released Cargo”:
This section lists all consignments that have been partially or fully released to the final customer.
