Booking Tender Update (Employee)

Note: You can update the booking tender only when:

• it is in Tendered or Tender Accepted status,
• it is not active for re-planning, and
• it does not contain suspended loads.

Use this page to update the tender for a booking. An updated version of the tender will be sent to the carrier via e-mail, fax or EDI (via event notification), based on the tender notification methods defaulted from the Tariff Service or manually overridden on the Tender Contacts page.

The decision to send an updated tender to the carrier is at the discretion of the logistics planner.

For example, the established business practice may be to issue a Tender Update immediately after unsuspending any of the loads on the booking.

The Carrier ID and Service fields cannot be updated when requesting a Tender Update. However, commit levels can be modified in some cases.

The load and booking statuses are not affected by this process. Also, the tender request status is not affected.

A State Transition entry is created for the load using a user-assignable Event Reason Code. Users viewing the Event History for any of the loads on the booking will be able to identify the Tender Update as a specific load event.

Tender Update is one of the events supported by the Auditing process at load level. If this event has been enabled, an image of each load with associated stops, charge details and attached shipment legs are captured.

When Tender Update is performed for a booking, the Event Notification message BookingTenderUpdated is created if it has been activated. Otherwise, the LoadTenderUpdated message is issued for each load assigned to the booking.
