Trip or booking pro-ration will be triggered immediately each time routing / rating / scheduling (RR&S) is performed for a trip or booking. Trip or booking pro-ration will be performed for all trip or booking level charges (that is, where the Apply Charge at Trip/Booking Level for the corresponding Tariff Charge is True). Trip or booking pro-ration will also be performed when rating results in TM for trips or bookings are established based on the results of optimization.
Trip or booking pro-ration will not be performed for any other Charge Details computed by trip or booking RR&S.
Trip or booking pro-ration will establish a working value for each load attached to the trip or booking in a similar manner to the way that load pro-ration will establish a working value for each shipment attached to the load. This value could be based on the load's weight, volume or number of pallets; it could also be based on the extended value of the load's weight or volume or pallets multiplied by the fixed itinerary distance for the load. The percentage that will be used to allocate a portion of each trip or booking level charge to each member load will be established by dividing each load's working value by the sum of the working values for all loads on the trip or booking.
A Charge Detail created at load level representing a pro-rated portion of a trip or booking level charge will itself be subject to the load pro-ration process. Note the load pro-ration does not occur when rating is performed for the load; it is performed only when pro-rated amounts are required (for example, Load Gross Margin Inquiry, G/L Transaction Generation, A/R Voucher Creation for Carrier Surcharge Based Customer, etc.).
