TMS 7.12 SaferWatch

Overview

The SaferWatch integration provides FMCSA data and insurance certificates for Carriers. 

The Revenova TMS integration with SaferWatch contains two main features. The first is Carrier onboarding where information is received from SaferWatch into the TMS. The second feature is the ability to monitor changes in FMCSA information in the TMS.

Updates sent from SaferWatch are processed by the CarrierMonitorJob.

Batch Processes

The following batch process job triggers the SaferWatch integration in the following ways:

Transportation Profile Settings

• The Last Carrier Review Date field on the Carrier Transportation Profile is set:

  • every time SaferWatch data is pulled during the batch job.

  • when an individual user manually updates a compliance field.

When a Carrier is set to Approved on the Transportation Profile the following occurs.

1. The Carrier Service records for the Carrier are enabled.

2. The Carrier is added to the SaferWatch Watch list. FMCSA changes for the Carrier are flagged on a daily basis.

When Carrier is set to Rejected perform these two tasks on the Carrier Transportation Profile.

1.  Uncheck the Monitor Carrier field.

2. Set the Carrier Review Status field to Rejected.

When the Carrier Review Status is set to Rejected, all related Carrier Services are disabled.

Fields provided by SaferWatch:

• Overall Risk

• Authority Risk

• Insurance Risk

• Safety Risk

• Operation Risk

• Company Risk – Company risk must be manually entered by a TMS user.

Carriers added to the SaferWatch watchlist manually are updated the next time the CarrierMonitorJob runs. To run the job immediately, navigate to TMS Admin → Configuration and click the Reset Carrier Watch List button.
