The 'Confirmation Requested' status is activated when a Shipper makes changes to an existing Quote Request. This status will be reflected in the quotation submitted by the Provider following the edits made to the Quote Request.
Confirmation Requested Message
While editing the Quote Request, the Shipper will receive a reminder notification indicating that submitted quotations cannot be booked at this time. This is because Providers will need to reconfirm their quotes to ensure that the costs reflect the most recent updates to the quote request.
Where can I find the 'Confirmation Requested' status on the submitted quote?
The system then automatically sends a Confirmation Request to the Provider which previously submitted a quote. This means the Provider must now review and revalidate their quotation to ensure the details and costs are still accurate based on the updated shipment information.
An automatic email notification is sent to the Provider, detailing the modifications made by the Shipper.
What happens after the Provider confirms the Quote?
Once the provider confirms the quote, the Shipper will be able to review the updated quote submission before proceeding with the booking.
-
The Shipper can review the updated cost details submitted by the Provider.
- The Action button will revert to 'Book', enabling the Shipper to continue with the booking process.
- The Audit Trail will also provide a record of the Provider's confirmation, allowing you to track the changes made during this process.
