You are the logistics manager at a distribution company.
Your primary carrier service provides rates for transportation between New York City and Colorado. These rates are a flat rate depending on the city or general area of pickup as follows:
New York City = $500
Colorado = $450
You need to set up Transportation Management to calculate the rate from New York City to Colorado.
What should you do?
A. Use a Point-to-Point engine based on weight and miles. Assign rates from New York City as the starting location and Colorado as the ending location and break the rates out based on the weight of the package.
B. Use a mileage-based rate engine to configure a rate master that calculates the rate based on the miles from New York City to Colorado.
C. Create hubs for both locations. Add a route plan from New York City to Colorado and assign the two charges as spot rates.
D. Set up zones in the Zone Master for New York City and Colorado. Assign rates to each zone in the Zone Master by starting and ending location.
