Different organizations use differing terms to refer to the same things. So making OnTime use the right terms in your business is important in making the software clearer to your employees and customers. OnTime allows you to change several major terms to be whatever is needed. For instance a shipment may be referred to as order, shipment, package, or freight; whatever best fits your organization. These changes are carried across your entire organization so that everyone sees the terms you choose.
