Load Requirements tab
Load requirements/conditions specify special criteria that must or should be met when assigning resources (driver, tractor, trailer, or carrier) to an order.
• A requirement is signified by a must condition. Only a resource that meets the requirement can be assigned to move the load.
• A preference is signified by a should condition. If the assigned resource does not satisfy the condition, the system displays a warning. It will, however, allow the assignment.
Load requirements/conditions can be attached to a company in its profile. These default load requirements will appear on any order on which the company is used.
