To create a complete load from scratch manually, without the help of templates, click on Publish Load from the Loads section of Fr8app:
Pickup and Delivery Information
The first sections to fill out are the origin and destination points.
If we have preloaded our facilities on the platform, they can be conveniently and easily selected from the drop-down menu, which will automatically fill in the facility information fields.
If it's a new location that we haven't pre-registered, we'll be asked to fill out important fields for its identification and operation, such as:
- Direction
- Receiver / Consignee.
Dates
Boarding dates are always mandatory.
Team and merchandise details
Shipment Identifiers
Fields are provided for the collection number, which is mandatory, and also the possibility of clicking on Show Optional Identifiers, to display an extra set of fields to fill in other available identifiers such as BOL, Order or Stamp Number, Box Number, etc.
Rate and Publication
On this final screen:
- We'll add a maximum price as the rate for the shipment.
