Automatic rate determination
If you have activated the automatism in the basic data, the program automatically determines the rates after you have entered the weight.
If this automatism is not active, you can still manually search for rates in the Rate field in the goods description.
→ The best possible rates will be offered for selection.
Info:
The program always tries to determine clearly unique rates by taking into consideration the details entered in the order.
The criteria are described below.
If the system is able to determine unequivocal rates, these are immediately inserted into the corresponding fields.
If a rate is not unambiguous, e.g. because rates for the DGR code or carrier are not available, the system will open a selection mask.
This mask shows the best possible rates for the route (DEP-DES).
These entries are limited to the recorded carrier, but carrier-independent rates are displayed as well.
Relevant rates per AWB type
Depending on the AWB type, there are 1 to 3 fields for possible rates.
The field Rate in the goods description line always provides manual access to all possible rates.
→ The selection mask shows rates for all rate types.
Rates that can be entered per AWB type
Rate | |
|---|---|
Customer rate | |
Customer rate, IATA rate and net rate | |
IATA rate, net rate | |
IATA rate, net rate | |
CONSOL (for Gateway ProfitCenter) | Customer rate, IATA rate and net rate |
No rate is determined automatically |
| Warning |
|---|
If the program does NOT find a customer rate in the IATA AWB, the IATA rate is automatically entered into the field Customer rate instead. Even if the IATA rate was entered manually, this rate will be entered into the field Customer if it has not been filled. |
IATA rate | Always displayed in the Rate field in the goods description lines of MAWBs (Consol, IATA, and MAWB of the B2B). |
|---|---|
Customer rate | Entered in the Rate field in the goods description line in HAWBs. |
Net rate | Entered in the field Net rate below the dimensions in all MAWBs. |

Export
The field for the rate class is located next to the customer rate on the Goods description tab.
This field is filled automatically once you select the rate.
It can also be filled manually.
This code is taken into account upon rate transmission to the outgoing invoicing.
Time of the automatic rate determination
If the automatic rate determination is active, the rates will be inserted automatically once you enter a CWT (chargeable weight) in the goods description.
This is usually done after the entry of the weight (GWT).When entering a new file, the rate is calculated after the entry of the GWT.
Press TAB to jump to the following dimension lines.
If you enter new dimension lines that increase the CWT, the program automatically calculates anew.
This calculation will not be performed if you only change (e.g. the length) the dimension line.In case of a Consol AWB or after creation of a B2B (after conversion), click on the Goods description tab.
In these cases, the CWT is usually already available: by adding the HAWBs into the consol or by entering the goods description before converting the B2B.If the CWT is changed manually, the rates are automatically redetermined.

ATTENTION: If the CWT changes due to entry or changes of the dimensions, the program will only issue a warning, not automatically update the rate! |
No automatism after changes of AWB data
The program will not automatically update the rates if you subsequently change AWB data that are relevant for the rates (e.g. customer, GSA or service)!
Exception: Manual changes to the chargeable weight.
A warning appears after you change a field that is relevant the rates:
...
This message only appears ONCE.
→ If you change other fields, the program will assume that you know that a recalculation will be necessary.
→ If you have redetermined the rate(s) and change another field afterwards, the message appears again ONCE.
Start recalculation or manually select rates
The recalculation can only be performed if the automatic mode in the AIR Parameter in AIRFREIGHT is active!
To start the recalculation of the rates by the system, select the context menu entry Recalculate rates in the goods description.
The system will automatically enter the rates in the designated fields.
If unable to determine unequivocal rates, the program will open a selection mask: Rate recalculation
To manually open the selection mask, double click into the Rate field in the goods description.
This mask ONLY shows the best possible rates.
If the the program has only found one matching rate, this rate will be displayed on its own.
Press F3 to see a larger selection of rates.
Your focus will be in the upper section of the mask → search criteria.
