    These five Functions split the management of goods (freight) transport and fleets of freight vehicles between them. They communicate with each other, with other parts of the Manage Freight and Fleet Area and with the terminators using many Data Flows. These together with the Functions and the common Data Store are shown in the DFD for Function 8.1 - DFD 8.1.
