How to create resources such as containers or trucks in VisibleLogistics.
Resources are fixed or mobile assets used to store and transport the shipped items.
This includes locations (such as warehouses, terminals, distribution centres or shops), mobile assets (boxes, racks, container or palets) and vehicles (ships, barges, trucks, planes or trains). Any resource can contain another resource, passing it its own localisation. Any resource can also have resource lines which state the items contained in it and their respective quantities.
