What it is

Manhattan Active Yard Management coordinates yard, dock, warehouse, and transportation execution for warehouse and distribution-center operations. Its graphical view brings together dock doors, yard positions, trailer locations, expected arrivals, and trailer contents. The system prioritizes trailers for dock doors using putaway travel, warehouse shortages, and cross-dock or flow-through demand. Door and trailer assignments synchronize with receiving, putaway, staging, and loading. Pre-receipt allocation supports inbound cross-dock and flow-through processing, with configurable workflows for live and drop loads. The product is designed to reduce dwell time and work with Manhattan Warehouse Management and Transportation Management. It runs on the cloud-native, API-first ActivePlatform, which supports REST APIs, synchronous HTTP, and asynchronous messaging. Manhattan says Active solutions receive feature updates every 90 days and are hosted on Google Cloud as a multi-tenant subscription service. Its stated security program includes continuous monitoring and response, encryption, incident response, and third-party penetration testing. Pricing is on request; the listed plan has no public price, with differing terms for Warehouse Management and Transportation Management users.
