Booking Rate Shop Operations in Transportation Smartbench

This section lists the booking rate shop operations in alphabetical order with a brief description.

Note: Administrators configure which operations are available and the order in which they are displayed based on your role. Only authorized operations are displayed in your operations toolbar.

Comprehensive validations are performed by back-end APIs upon Submit and Submit/Tender. These operations generally close the Rate Shop page and display a summarized message in the message area of the main TSB frame. If back-end validation fails (for example, results cannot be committed), the page remains open and the error is displayed in the rate shop message area.
