Key capabilities

Built for the way freight actually works

Every capability supports how operations, finance, and commercial teams price and bill shipments.

One source of truth

All SELL and BUY rates live in a structured hierarchy. Every system reads the same rate.

Auto-billing on order create

Charges calculate when an order is saved — revenue and cost without manual steps.

Multi-currency FX

Multi-level fallback finds the right conversion — from customer profiles to defaults.

Tiered & geo pricing

Weight and zone dimensions so one rate record covers many shipment profiles.

Charge audit trail

Full linkage to rates and offerings — Cost Audit surfaces expected vs actual gaps.

SELL & BUY separated

Customer and carrier economics stay distinct — margin stays visible.

Quick Rates

Spot lookups before orders exist — same engine as billing for consistent results.

Seasonal calendars

Peak and holiday windows without duplicating base rate records.

Fuel surcharges

Dated fuel components applied on top of base freight automatically.

Streamlined Rate Management

It centralizes rate structures, prioritizes cost-based routing, and ensures competitive rate execution.

Automated workflows help teams select cost-efficient, service-optimized rates for every tender.
