Adjusting billing rate amounts
Adjusting billing rate amounts
On occasion, you will need to increase or decrease amounts for a rate schedule. TMWSuite allows you to adjust all amounts by either a percentage or by a flat amount. When you elect to adjust amounts, the system copies the existing rate and creates a new one to which the adjustments will be applied. The original rate is not deleted. Data on the old rate is not changed, with one exception. If the old rate’s expiration date is on or after the new rate’s effective date, the old rate’s expiration date is changed to the date that precedes the new rate’s effective date.
Notes:
By default, when you adjust a primary rate that is linked to secondary rate(s), those secondary rate(s) also are linked to the new copy.
This chapter describes rate adjustment windows that you can use for any rate schedule. If you use point-to-point rates, the Tariff Mass Table Rate Change window may be useful to you. It allows you to edit multiple lane-based rates at one time. Its use is restricted to rate tables that:
Have index restrictions for Bill To ID and commodity class
Have origin to destination rate tables
