Step 1: Create a quote for your client

For details about creating quotes please see How to Create Quoted Rates

Note: ensure that the client code entered on your quote is the TSW code for the client.

Step 2: Add a freight rate to your quote

Ensure that you have at a quoted rate with a category of Freight (to indicate international freight charges).

Step 3: Calculate the freight value for your declaration

Click on the button to the right of the Freight Value field (as depicted in the screenshot below)

Accord will:

• Find any valid quotes for the selected client matching the current consignment.  For example, if an origin port has been entered against the quote then the consignment must have a matching origin.
• Find a quote rate with category of Freight and calculate a value based on known quantities from the consignment such as the total weight or container count.
• And finally the currency and amount will be populated into the fields on the screen.

Notes

• A TSW code for the client must be selected in order to use the freight value calculation.
• Accord will not attempt to calculate the freight value when multiple quoted rates having a category of Freight are found for the client and consignment.
