chunkytransport:
yes, we use sage, but i was wondering if a program designed for transport exists, one that does your vehicles costings profits mpgs drivers wages etc without having to manually do it over and over and working the sums etc
There IS a specialist program avaliable - try http://www.roadrunner.uk.com - They do different versions for Traffic Management; Garage & Workshops; Warehousing; and Finance.
From what I hear it is quite a good system if used correctly, although it is pricey. 
I don’t know if this is any use to you, but if you find something similar for cheaper - I will be very interested myself…
