Field Information

Freight Rate Book

freight rate book

Rating Method

The method by which freight rates are categorized. Freight rates are based on Distance or on Zone.

Default value

This value is defaulted from the Rating Method field in the Freight Rate Books (tdpcg0116m000) session.

Carrier/LSP

The carrier that carries out transportation against the rates defined in the current freight rate book.

Service Level

Weight

The weight to which the freight amounts by distance or zone of the current freight rate book line apply.

Weight Unit

The unit in which the weight is expressed.

Currency

Additional Rate Quantity

additional rate quantity by unit

Additional Rate Unt - Unit

The unit that you want to use as additional rate unit.

Break Type

The Break Type determines whether a Minimum or an Up To weight, distance, or additional rate value break is used for the freight rate book line.

Example

Break Type Minimum    
Weight 100    
Distance 0 Amount by Weight 10
Distance 100 Amount by Weight 15

For distances < 100, weights >= 100 are multiplied by 10 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported weight. For distances >= 100, weights >= 100 are multiplied by 15 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported weight.

Break Type Up To    
Weight 100    
Distance 100 Amount by Distance 15
Distance 500 Amount by Distance 20

For distances <= 100, weights <= 100 are multiplied by 15 to calculate the weight charges. For distances > 100 and <= 500, weights <= 100 are multiplied by 20 to calculate the weight charges.

When you select a Break Type in combination with a given Freight Rate Book for the first time, the selected Break Type becomes fixed and cannot be changed for any following lines in the Freight Rate Book.

Distance

The distance for which the current rate amounts are calculated. This field is empty if the Rating Method is Zone.

Distance Unit

The distance unit used to express the distances defined in the freight rate book.

Zone Type

To specify freight rates by zone, you can use zones of the city, zip, or distance type.

Allowed values

ZIP

Zone by zip

City

Zone by city

Distance

Zone by distance

Not Applicable

Zone type not used.

Zone

The code of the zone for which the current rate amounts are calculated.

Entry Date

The date and time when the current rate is entered.

Effective Date

The date and time as from which the freight rate book line is valid.

Expiry Date

The expiry date and time of the freight rate book line.

Minimum Amount

If the calculated amount, based on the amounts by Distance/ Zone, Weight, or the Fixed Amount is less than the Minimum Amount, the amount specified in this field is charged as freight costs.

Fixed Amount

The amount that is always added to freight rates based on the current distance or zone.

Amount by Distance

The amount that is multiplied by distances that are within the distance break specified in the Distance field.

Example

Break Type Minimum    
Distance 0 Amount by Distance 10
Distance 100 Amount by Distance 15

Distances < 100 are multiplied by 10 to calculate the amount charged for the traveled distance. Distances >= 100 are multiplied by 15 to calculate the amount charged for the traveled distance.

Break Type Up To    
Distance 100 Amount by Distance 15
Distance 500 Amount by Distance 20

Distances <= 100 are multiplied by 15 to calculate the amount charged for the traveled distance. Distances > 100 and <= 500 are multiplied by 20 to calculate the amount charged for the traveled distance.

Note: This field is empty and unavailable if the Rating Method is Zone.
Amount by Weight

The amount that is multiplied by weights that are within the distance break specified in the Distance field.

Example

Break Type Minimum    
Weight 100    
Distance 0 Amount by Weight 10
Distance 100 Amount by Weight 15

For distances < 100, weights >= 100 are multiplied by 10 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported weight. For distances >= 100, weights >= 100 are multiplied by 15 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported weight.

Break Type Up To    
Weight 100    
Distance 100 Amount by Distance 15
Distance 500 Amount by Distance 20

For distances <= 100, weights <= 100 are multiplied by 15 to calculate the weight charges. For distances > 100 and <= 500, weights <= 100 are multiplied by 20 to calculate the weight charges.

Amount by Additional Rate Unit

The amount that is multiplied by additional rate units that are within the distance break specified in the Distance field.

Example

Break Type Minimum    
Additional Rate Quantity 100 litres    
Distance 0 Amount by Additional Rate Unit 10
Distance 100 Amount by Additional Rate Unit 15

For distances < 100, volumes of >= 100 litres are multiplied by 10 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported volume. For distances >= 100, volumes of >= 100 litres are multiplied by 15 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported volume.

Break Type Up to    
Additional Rate Quantity 2 m²    
Distance 100 Amount by Additional Rate Unit 15
Distance 500 Amount by Additional Rate Unit 20

For distances <= 100, quantities up to 2 square metres are multiplied by 15 to calculate the amount charged for the total transported additional quantity. For distances > 100 and <= 500, quantities up to 2 square metres are multiplied by 20 to calculate amount charged for the total transported additional quantity.
