If you missed – we recommend to look on updates for the previous period.
Booking System
We are ready to show you the new design and functionality of the Booking System. The system allows you to do everything necessary to make real international shipping deals online. A simple, user-friendly interface of the client’s and carrier’s Virtual Office. By giving your clients the possibility of booking online, you make your business available 24/7/365. That means that you will be able to receive more bookings that you would typically get via a telephone-based booking system available from 9 to 5.
Now (in brief), the sequence is as follows.
Step 1 - Client booking rates into Marketplace or Logistics Explorer.
Step 2 - Client fills out all booking details
Step 3 - Your booking is created.
Step 4 - In the Virtual Office, a carrier can view all of their bookings. The carrier receives all bookings in the New tab, which must be accepted or canceled within 24 hours. All accepted bookings are in the In progress tab, and all canceled bookings in the Archive tab.
Step 5 - In the Virtual Office, the client can view all their bookings. In the In progress tab, you can view which bookings the carrier accepted to you. And in the Archive tab you can view canceled or completed bookings.
Step 6 – The carrier and the client can download all the necessary documents for shipping. Also, the document “Quotation” appears automatically.
Now, you can plan your shipments quickly and online. All in one dashboard.
