The updates mentioned above are just a few examples of the possibilities offered by Mainchain. In the coming period we will be continuing with the development of new functionalities like the integrated booking tool, an online platform with which customers are able to create consignments directly. In the future there will also be a quotation module available which allows you to make price calculations. This will provide you with fast and accessible information about the costs and options for transport, after which, you will then be able to register your consignment with just one click. We are also going to offer customers the option of attaching documents to consignments like invoices by means of document management.
