Recalculate freight costs

If value Automatic is selected for field Recalculation of Freight Costs, and an advanced status is selected for field Recalculate Load Costs until Status in the Freight Rates and Costs Parameters (fmfrc0100m000) session, freight costs are automatically recalculated for loads, clusters, and shipments each time the loads, clusters, and shipments are manually changed until the loads, clusters, and shipments have reached the status preceding the specified status. Frequent changes to the loads, clusters, and shipments result in numerous freight cost recalculations, which can affect system performance.

To save performance, consider recalculating the freight costs only once, after all changes have been made to the loads and shipments, or only allowing automatic recalculation during the early stages of the planning and shipping process. For this purpose, for field:

  • Recalculation of Freight Costs, select one of the following values:

    • Interactive
