Load Status Batch Job
The Load Status Batch Job must be running to automatically track updates from AccuFRATE.
The LoadStatusUpdateJob runs continuously. The job brings any load status data changes into the TMS from the AccuFRATE API.
Name | Purpose | ‘Run Now’ Action | ‘Schedule’ Action |
|---|---|---|---|
LoadStatusUpdateJob | Requests load status updates from API and email carriers. | Active – runs job immediately | Inactive - invoked by itself upon completion |
Run the LoadStatusUpdateJob from the list of Batch Processes on the Performance IQ Lightning Web Component (LWC).
The AccuFRATE integration only supports 2 Stop Loads. If more than 2 Stop locations are included on a Load, no information returns.
AccuFRATE does not support the same location for Pickup and Delivery Stops. If the same location is used as a Pickup and Delivery, users receive an error.
