Let's remember again that the purpose of quick loads is to reduce the shipment creation form to the essentials, so that shipments can be created quickly and dynamically in the system with the basics to be able to price and confirm availability.
Once the load is confirmed, the system will ask us for the rest of the important information to convert it into a complete load operable in the system.
To create a quick upload, without the help of templates, click on Publish Quick Load from the Loads section of Fr8app:
Pickup and Delivery Information
The first sections to fill in are the points of origin and destination.
If we have preloaded our facilities on the platform, they can be chosen from the drop-down menu in a comfortable and simple way, which will autofill the information fields of the facilities.
In the case of a new location that we do not have pre-registered, we will be asked to fill in important fields for its identification and operation, such as:
- Adress.
- Receiver / Consignee.
Date and Equipment
In the case of Quick Loads, only the date of shipment pick-up is required.
In the same way, only box type and category are requested.
Tariff and Publication
In this final screen:
- We will add a maximum price as a shipping fee.
- We will assign an expiration date to the shipping proposal if we want to do it manually. Otherwise, the system already preloads for us the date of the pick-up appointment.
- As a special feature of the quick load creation system, we can select the number of shipments we want to create. That is to say, in the same creation, many similar shipments can be created in a single action, and then change some specific data such as the time of the appointment or the unique identification number of the shipment.
- We click on Publish Load.
Please note that if multiple shipment sets are created, the system may take a few seconds to create a bulk shipment. This behavior is normal. It should not take more than 3-5 seconds, do not reload the page.
