( Find video below ) We had a great Oppi webinar session discussing cargo insurance, liability and claims, and exploring the opportunities insurance can create for freight forwarders. Joined by Breeze, alongside Oppi, the session looked at why cargo insurance is about much more than simply protecting goods when something goes wrong. Why cargo insurance matters for freight forwarders When cargo is lost or damaged, one of the first questions a customer may ask is: who is respon

Keeping track of upcoming work is an important part of keeping jobs moving, especially when you're managing multiple team members or covering for colleagues. That's why we've expanded the My Milestones dashboard to give you much greater visibility across your operations. Previously, the dashboard only displayed your own upcoming job milestones. Now, you can choose to view milestones assigned to another member of staff, or switch to see upcoming milestones across all jobs in a

It's often the little details that make the biggest difference. Invoices, credit notes and quotes now automatically include page numbers, making it immediately clear when a document contains more than one page. Previously, if only the first page was received or printed, it wasn't always obvious that additional pages existed. With page numbering now built in, there's no uncertainty whether a document is complete. This small enhancement helps reduce confusion, gives recipients

Finding the right company just got a little easier. When using a Company Smart Lookup, you'll now see an icon next to each result showing whether the company is a Customer, Supplier or 3rd Party. If you have companies with similar names or businesses that appear in multiple roles, it's now much quicker to identify the one you're looking for without having to open each record. It's a simple addition, but one that makes searching faster and helps reduce the chances of selecting

If you regularly duplicate jobs, clearances or contracts, you'll know that not every detail needs to come across every time. More often than not, you end up removing information before you can get started. That's why we've introduced Customised Duplications. When creating a duplicate, you can now choose exactly what you'd like to carry over. Whether you want to include cargo, charges, voyage details, or a combination of them, it's entirely up to you. This means you can create

Understanding the value of your warehouse stock is essential for accurate reporting and better business decisions. That's why we've introduced Stock Valuations within the Oppi Warehouse Management System. Each SKU can now be assigned a stock value, allowing Oppi to calculate and display the total value of your inventory across the system. This information is automatically carried through to dashboards and reports, giving you an up-to-date view of the value of your warehouse s

Assigning the correct commodity code is an important part of moving goods, but finding the right code can often take time. With Oppi's new UK/EU Commodity Code Explorer, you can search the entire TARIC database directly from within the system. Simply search by keyword or browse through the hierarchy tree to find the commodity code that best matches your cargo. The tool has been designed to suit the way you work. In Freight Jobs, you only need to enter the first 4 digits of th

Finding the right vessel for a sea shipment is now easier with the latest update to Oppi. Rather than manually entering a vessel name, you can now search and select from a built-in database containing cargo vessels from around the world. This helps reduce manual data entry while ensuring vessel information is consistent across your jobs. Each vessel record includes a range of useful information, including its origin, vessel type, capacity, age and other key details. Everythin

If you've got a list of customers or leads in Excel, you can now import it directly into Oppi. The new Customers and Leads Import Tool removes the need to manually create every company, contact and location. Simply upload your spreadsheet and Oppi will automatically organise the data into the appropriate records, making it much quicker to get your information into the system. The import tool also gives you the flexibility to map your spreadsheet to any customer or opportunity

Oppi automatically calculates CO₂ emissions for air, sea and road shipments, giving you a consistent emissions figure as part of your workflow. With our latest update, you now have more flexibility when you need it. You can now override the automatically calculated CO₂ emissions value and enter your own figure where required. This is particularly useful if you're working with externally verified emissions data or need to report against values provided by another source. We've

Managing documents is part of everyday life in freight forwarding, so we've introduced a simple update to make it quicker and easier. You can now download multiple attachments directly from Oppi, whether they're documents, images or other files. The new options allow you to: Download all attachments individually Download all attachments as a single ZIP file Select specific files and download only those, either individually or as a ZIP This functionality is available across al

Software vendors often talk about features. Customers tend to talk about different things. When speaking with businesses including Forest Freight Ltd, FreightEx International and Rutland Worldwide Freight, the conversation rarely focused on technology itself. Instead, discussions centred around visibility, communication, support and the practical realities of running a freight operation. Despite serving different customers and operating in different ways, all three businesses

Our latest platform update introduces a set of improvements across sales, invoicing, automation, and logistics, all designed to reduce manual work and improve day-to-day visibility. The Sales Pipeline now includes Expected Conversion Date and Potential Contract Value, giving teams clearer insight into when deals may close and their potential revenue. With sorting

Freight forwarders are under increasing pressure to provide accurate, timely updates on shipments moving across the world. Yet gaining clear visibility across both sea and air freight is often difficult. Vessels and aircraft move across multiple ports, airports, and legs of a journey, while delays, congestion, and schedule changes can happen at any time. As a result, operations teams often spend hours manually checking carrier websites, chasing updates, and responding to cust

We’re excited to introduce automatic CO₂e emissions calculations on the Realm Realtime platform. CO₂e emissions are now calculated automatically for every voyage, job, and quote — removing the need for third-party tools and manual calculations. Emissions include CO₂, methane (CH₄), and nitrous oxide (N₂O), combined into a single, reliable CO₂e figure. All calculations are ISO 14083:2023 compliant , cover all transport modes , and provide full Well-To-Wheel (WTW) visibility

If your stock is input as a box of SKUs rather than a single SKU, you can now convert WMS stock from one type to another with a single click. No manual adjustments. No workarounds. Behind the scenes, everything is handled correctly. Full stock history is preserved and billability remains accurate, so conversions are transparent and fully traceable. This makes it easier to adapt stock as it moves through your warehouse, whether items are being broken down, repacked or reclassi

Customer communication works best when it feels consistent and trustworthy. Sending emails from a generic system address can break that experience and create confusion for recipients. With Custom Email Domain , you can now send customer emails from Realm using your own email domain. Once set up, emails sent from the platform appear as if they’re coming directly from your business, using your preferred email address. This helps reinforce your brand, build trust with customers

Keeping track of invoice and credit note syncs can quickly become time-consuming, especially when issues need to be reviewed one by one across different screens. Sync Dashboards bring everything together in a single, clear view. You can now see the sync status of all invoices and credit notes from one place. Whether an item is successfully synced, needs attention or should not be synced at all, the information is immediately visible. From the dashboard, you can validate recor
