Reports and dashboards
Explore what each report measures and the records behind it.
Freight Spend by Mode and Carrier
Total freight cost trailing-12-months by Mode (Parcel / LTL / FTL / Intermodal / Air / Ocean) × Carrier × Lane, with cost-per-pound, cost-per-mile, and shipment count. Drills into per-shipment Cost vs. ActualCost for variance discovery. The Logistics Manager's daily landing report.
On-Time Delivery (OTD)
Percent of Shipments Delivered on or before PlannedDeliveryDate, by Carrier × Lane × ServiceLevel × Month. Targets typically 95% Parcel, 92% LTL, 88% FTL. Drives Quarterly Business Review with each carrier.
Tender Acceptance Rate
Percent of Tendering rows by CarrierTendered with Response = Accepted on first round, second round, and rejected outright. Highlights carriers losing capacity on contracted lanes.
Carrier Scorecard
Per-Carrier scorecard combining OTD, Tender Acceptance, Damage / Loss rate, Detention rate, Audit Match rate, and YTD Spend. The Quarterly Business Review export.
Freight Audit Recovery
Per period, total Overcharge identified, ClaimedAmount filed in Disputes, and RecoveredAmount credited back. Tracks audit-team ROI (recovery / payroll cost).
Accessorial Spend Analysis
Spend by Accessorial × Carrier × Lane trailing-6-months. Surfaces contracts where unjustified Detention or LiftGate is structural and should renegotiate.
Lane Network Utilization
Per Lane, shipments-per- month, average weight, average cost-per-mile, primary carrier share. Identifies under-served lanes and consolidation opportunities.
Hazmat Compliance
All HazmatShipments YTD with UN Number, HazardClass, ShipperCertSigned, PlacardsRequired status. The DOT 49 CFR audit report.

Controls and automation
System checks
rate-shop-on-shipment-create — appEventTrigger on Shipments (Status: Planned) → ranks carriers by total contracted cost, writes CarrierAssigned + Cost.
tender-to-carrier — appEventTrigger on Shipments (Status: Planned → Tendered) → emits EDI 204 or carrier API call, creates Tendering row, logs EDIMessages.
tender-acceptance-tracking — appEventTrigger on Tendering.Response change → on Accepted advances Shipment status; on Rejected re-rate-shops and re-tenders next-cheapest carrier; on CounterOffered routes to Transportation Planner.
eta-update-from-tracking-feed — appEventTrigger on TrackingEvents.record.created → maps EventType to Shipments.Status, recomputes ETA.
shipment-exception-alert — appEventTrigger on TrackingEvents (EventType: Exception) or schedule on missed PlannedDeliveryDate → creates Exceptions row, severity-routed to Dispatcher or Logistics Manager.
pod-collection — appEventTrigger on TrackingEvents (EventType: Delivered) → creates ProofOfDelivery row, prompts driver upload, flips Shipments.Status to Delivered.
freight-invoice-import-and-audit — appEventTrigger on FreightInvoices.record.created (or scheduleTrigger on EDI 210 inbound polling) → recomputes expected per line, writes FreightAuditResults with Match / Overcharge / Undercharge / Disputed verdict.
freight-invoice-approval — appEventTrigger on FreightInvoices (Status: Audited, all lines Match) → Freight Audit Clerk approval, then outbound payload to fin-bill-pay-ap creates the AP Bill.
accessorial-charge-validation — appEventTrigger on FreightAuditResults.record.created → validates each accessorial against AccessorialRates and operational proof (Detentions, Shipment flags); flags unjustified accessorials as Overcharge.
lane-rate-renewal-reminder — scheduleTrigger daily at T-30 days before RateContracts.TermEnd → emails Logistics Manager with YTD spend on the lane and renewal-worksheet link. Integrations: inbound from scm-wms (outbound shipment handoff), tracking visibility partners (project44, FourKites, MacroPoint webhooks), carrier-direct APIs (FedEx, UPS, USPS Web Tools), and EDI partners (204 outbound, 990 inbound, 214 inbound, 210 inbound via VAN or AS2). Outbound to fin-bill-pay-ap (matched FreightInvoices become AP Bills), customer notifications (tracking links by email), and the document store (POD images, signed BOLs, audit packets).
