The software provides search criteria such as: (1)

  • Origin of Shipment (Port of loading)

  • Destination of Shipment (Port of discharge) For US routes, inland ports are not entered here. Instead, you can enter them in the quick search or use the filter feature on each column as instructed below.

  • Ready to Load (Date cargo is ready for shipment) - the software will use this date to search for valid prices.

    The valid price will be shown when: Effect Date ≤ Selected Date ≤ Valid Date

  • Import / Export (Import or export cargo)

  • General search bar (2): Enter any keyword to search, the system will automatically filter all data in the table.

  • Filter by each column (3) (as shown below)

Each column has a filter icon on the right, click to popup the filter. Click the label of the data to filter that value or tick each value to filter by multiple values at once.
