Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present the impact of variables in the form of delivery dates (so-called time windows of deliveries) on the financial result in transport and decisions of managers in creating terms of cooperation with clients. These variables are transferred to information systems that deal with automatic route optimization and build transport plans. A simulation study was carried out to compare the generated financial result in terms of cost, quality and the amount of used fleet for the distribution of goods using calculations taking into account the delivery time windows and after their removal. Such a visualized plan can be a material for making strategic or tactical decisions by managers in logistics companies
