Generic Carrier

Account Number and Rating Method

When you add a new Generic carrier account, the page to enter the account number and rating method appears.
To configure a Generic carrier account number and rating method, complete these steps...

  1. In Account Number, type the account number for this Generic carrier. This is required so that Parcel can ship packages for this carrier.

  2. In Carrier Code, type a name for the carrier as you want it to appear in this Configuration Tool and in Parcel. Do not include spaces or dashes in the carrier code.

  3. In Rating Method, select the rating method for this Generic carrier from the list. See descriptions below.
    Note: The rating tables created when the Generic Carrier is added depend on the Rating Method chosen, as described in the following table:

    Non Rated

    For Generic carriers without rates. No rating tables are created with this Rating Method.

    Flat Rate

    For Generic carriers that use flat rates (rate is based only on each package weight defined in the rate table, not the destination zone). The following rating table is created with this method: Rate with the following columns:

    • Weight – Weight (as integer)

    • Rate – Rate (to two-decimal places)

    Zone Rate

    For Generic carriers whose rates are based on zones (rate is based on the destination zone). The following rating tables are created with this method:

    • Zone - From Zip: Origin Zip Code - To Zip: Destination Zip Code - City: Destination City - State: Destination State - Distance: area in square miles that zone includes. - Name: Name of zone

    • Rates - RBN: Rate Base Number - Class: LTL Class determined by National Motor Freight Classification for LTL shipments - MC: Minimum Charge

    • Rate Adjust - RBN: Rate Base Number - Class: LTL Class determined by National Motor Freight Classification for LTL shipments - MC: Minimum Charge

    Weight Break Rate

    For Generic carriers whose rates are based on weight breaks (you define the weight range and corresponding rate in the Rates and Weight Break tables). The following rating tables are created with this method:

    • Zone - From Zip: Origin Zip Code - To Zip: Destination Zip Code - City: Destination City - State: Destination State - Distance: area in square miles that zone includes. - Name: Name of zone

    • Weight Breaks - Weight: Weight (as integer) - Name: Name of Weight Break Rate

    • Rates - RBN: Rate Base Number - Class: LTL Class determined by National Motor Freight Classification for LTL shipments - MC: Minimum Charge

    • Rate Adjust - RBN: Rate Base Number - Class: LTL Class determined by National Motor Freight Classification for LTL shipments - MC: Minimum Charge

  4. From the LTL Carrier drop-down list, select "Y" if this is a less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier or "N" if it is not an LTL carrier.

  5. When you are done configuring this page, click SAVE in the lower-right corner of the page to save the settings. Otherwise, click CANCEL to cancel the settings.

To continue configuring Generic carrier, complete the following sections (the sections that appear depend on the rating method of the Generic carrier):

  • Accessorials

  • Shipper Defaults

  • Transit Times

  • Rates

  • Weight Breaks

  • Zones

Setting up a BOL Printer

In order to print the PNG Bill of Lading from the Parcel server, you need to set up a printer for this carrier according to following procedure.
To set up a Bill of Lading printer with a Generic carrier:

  1. When setting up the carrier on the Generic carrier setup screen, from the LTL Carrier drop-down list, select Yes.

  2. On the Shipper Defaults > Bill of Lading tab, select (check) the Print First check box.

  3. On the Shipper Defaults > Bill of Lading tab, select (check) the Print BOL at Ship Time check box.

  4. Set up the printer in one of the following ways:

    • On the Shipper Defaults > Bill of Lading tab, in the Printer Name field, type the IP address and network name of the printer to use for the BOL; for example, \\10.10.5.5.\Printer1.

    • On the Printer Map screen under the location, to add a non-label printer (for printing the PNG BOL) for the location, enter the information for this printer. (See the following Help topic: Location Settings - Printer Map .)

Note: If you set up printers using both methods, then Parcel uses the printer in the Printer Map table.

Shipper Defaults

Overview

Use the following tabs on the Generic Carrier Shipper Defaults page to configure the default information to use with this Generic Carrier account.
Tabs

  • Address

  • Bill of Lading

  • Default

  • Label

  • Pin Number

  • Pro Number

  • Rate Def

Rate Address Tab

Use the Address tab on the Generic Carrier Shipper Defaults page to enter the "Ship From" address for this Generic carrier account if different from the address on the Location Details tab for the location. For example, if you want an Alternate Return Address printed on the label and Bill of Lading, you can specify it on this screen.
Unless otherwise noted, all settings apply only to this Generic carrier account at this location.

In this box...

Type this...

Company Name

The Alternate Return Address Company Name or accept the default of the location address if you do not want to specify an alternate return address.

Address

The Alternate Return Address street address or accept the default of the location address if you do not want to specify an alternate return address.

Address 2

Any additional Alternate Return Address address information such as suite or floor or accept the default of the location address if you do not want to specify an alternate return address.

City

The Alternate Return Address city or accept the default of the location address if you do not want to specify an alternate return address.

Bill of Lading Tab

Use the Bill of Lading tab on the Generic Carrier Shipper Defaults page to enter Bill of Lading (BOL) information for use with this Generic carrier account.
Unless otherwise noted, all settings apply only to this Generic carrier account at this location.

In this box...

Do this...

Print First

To print the Bill of Lading before printing any other documents or reports, select this check box.

Use Consolidated BOL

To use the consolidated Bill of Lading, select this check box.

Check Digit Algorithm

Type the name of the check-digit algorithm to use to generate the check digit for the Bill of Lading (BOL) tracking number. The check digit algorithm for a Generic Carrier by default is MOD_10.
A check digit is a form of redundancy check used for error detection (the decimal equivalent of a binary checksum). In this case, the check digit consists of a single digit that the algorithm computes from the other digits in the BOL tracking number.
The name of this algorithm refers to the modulus that the check digit algorithm uses to generate the check digit for the Bill of Lading tracking number, in this case 10. For the MOD_10 algorithm, the number generated by the algorithm is divided by 10 and the remainder 0-9 is used as the check digit itself, which is then appended to the tracking number and used when required to verify that the tracking number is correct.
Parcel uses the following standard check digit algorithms:

  • DSR_10

  • DR_10

  • SR_10

  • DSR_11

  • MOD_7

  • MOD_10

  • AADR_10

  • MOD_11

  • DIGIT_10

  • MOD_11A

  • MOD_X

  • NONE
    Since these are standard algorithms, more information on each type can be found online.
