Overview
Stored Rate Support
The TMS supports the entry of both customer and Carrier stored/negotiated rates and lanes via the Rate Entry LWC and Lane IQ.
Lanes can be created by any A-to-B grouping of the following:
Country
State
City
Zip3
Zip5
Postal Code
Location (Account)
Zone
Customer and Carrier rate entries can be based on the following Rate Methods:
API | Per CWT | Per Square Meter |
Per Ton (US) | Per Handling Unit | |
Manual | Per Cubic Foot | Per HU Position |
Fixed Amount | Per Cubic Meter | Per Packaging Unit |
Per Mile | Per Gallon | Per Equipment Type |
Per Kilometer | Per Liter | Per Stop |
Per Pound | Per Linear Foot | Per Additional Stop |
Per Pound (Billable) | Per Square Foot | Per Day |
Per Kilogram | Per Square Meter | Per Hour |
Per Kilogram (Billable) | Per Handling Unit | Percent of Amount |
Per HU Position | Per 100.00 of Amount |
Rate Entries can have a Base, Minimum, and/or Maximum calculation defined, using the following logic when calculating the cost for a quote:
If the Base Cost is greater than the Maximum Cost, use the Maximum Cost.
OR if the Base Cost is less than the Minimum Cost, use the Minimum Cost.
OR Use the Base Cost.
If two Rate Entry records match when generating a stored rate customer quote, the Rate Entry Match Priority field determines which Rate Entry is used based on the sum of the Origin and Destination Type score as follows (lowest score record is selected).
