Can I automatically book a shipment?

Cargobase supports automatic booking of requests, but only under specific conditions.

Yes, Cargobase supports automatic booking of requests, but only under specific conditions.

When Automatic Booking Is Available

Automatic booking can be enabled for shipments that are rated using predefined rate cards. Because pricing and service selection are already established, Cargobase can automatically select and book the appropriate carrier service without requiring manual review.

When Automatic Booking Is Not Available

Spot-quoted shipments cannot be automatically booked.

Spot quotes often contain significant variations in pricing, transit times, service levels, and carrier options. As a result, these shipments require review and selection before a booking can be made.

Getting Started

If you would like to enable automatic booking for rate card-based shipments, please contact your Customer Excellence Manager. They can review your setup and discuss whether automatic booking is suitable for your shipping workflows.
