TMS 7.12 Transportation Profile Auto-Creation

Overview

Transportation Profile Auto-Creation

Transportation Profile records are automatically created and associated with an account whenever an account is inserted or updated under the following circumstances:

  • There is no existing Transportation Profile populated on the account record.

  • The TMS Type field is populated with any value other than Factoring Company or Customs Broker.

This auto-creation occurs during the following TMS activities:

  • Manual creation of an account from the New account button.

  • Creation of a load with new Customer, Shipper, or Consignee accounts.

  • Creation of a load on the Customer Portal with new Shipper or Consignee accounts.

  • Creation of an account during the entry of an online carrier application.

The TMS Type for Sharing field duplicates the TMS Type field value but is accessible as a criterion for Account Sharing Rules. It should not display on the Account page layout.
