Features Managed by the Pricing Department

This section provides an overview of the key features that the Pricing Department frequently uses in the Freightek system.

1. Partner Management

In this section, users can manage all information related to suppliers such as name, contact person, website, etc., across various predefined categories including Carriers, Co-loaders, Airlines, Agents, Trucking Vendors, and Other Vendors.

Most importantly, this data supports the automation of freight rate and cost management throughout the system.

2. Charge List Management (Charge Names by Category)

Here, users can create, edit, and delete different types of charges such as Local Charges, Services, Custom Charges, and System Charges.

Users can define:

• Charge names

• Charge calculation methods and units

• Automatic VAT settings

These configurations allow the system to automatically calculate fees correctly in later processes.

3. Rate Management: Freight, Local Charges, Services, and Customs Charges

In the Rates section, users can manage all freight and fee structures for:

• Freight

• Local Charges

• Services

• Customs Charges

Rates can be categorized by transport mode: FCL, LCL, AIR, FTL, LTL, etc.

4. Managing Rate Requests from Sales

In the Quote Requests section, Pricing can view and manage all rate requests submitted by Sales or directly from customers whenever certain charges or freight rates are not yet available in the system.

This helps the Pricing team quickly update and provide the necessary rates without relying on messages or verbal requests, as traditionally done before.
