How to manage stowage in Aratum Swift?

In a Transportation Management System (TMS), stowage refers to the process of organizing and securing cargo within a transportation vehicle, container, or vessel to ensure optimal space utilization and safety during transit. Proper stowage is crucial for maintaining the stability of the vehicle, preventing damage to goods, and ensuring efficient loading and unloading operations. A TMS aids in stowage planning by providing tools and algorithms to determine the best arrangement of cargo based on factors such as weight distribution, compatibility of items, and accessibility. Effective stowage contributes to cost savings, reduced transit times, and enhanced customer satisfaction by ensuring that goods arrive at their destination in good condition.
