Give each carrier the share of volume you planned
Volume allocation splits container bookings across carriers in each market and sends specific freight to specific carriers. We set it up with your team, around the way your bookings arrive today.

A share for each carrier in each market
Set each carrier’s percentage of container volume in a market, or in a state within it, adding up to 100%. Bookings are then assigned to carriers by those shares.
Rules for freight that must go to one carrier
Auto-assignment rules send a booking to a named carrier based on its details, such as the consignee or the delivery ZIP code. A rule can require all of its conditions to match, or any one of them.
