Introduction/Purpose: 

The Delivery Estimation Master provides a centralized system for managing delivery estimation data, essential for maintaining accurate timelines and associated metrics within the transporter system.

By allowing users to input delivery estimation details, including transporter, state, default depot (if applicable), and truck type (e.g., dry, bulk, wet, or all), this master ensures that reliable and standardized delivery information is available. Users can export a CSV sample file to fill in details such as destination state, state code, estimated days, fuel estimation (liters), distance (KM), and expenses (USD), which can be re-imported for seamless data integration. The system uses this data to assist in assigning orders and trips, facilitating precise planning and efficient delivery operations.
