Delay Tracking Costs
This section allows the users to set the Free days and Delay Slabs/Rates for specific carriers and container sizes. These are applied to containers that are added to the Delay Tracking section. Once a container is active in the Container Tracking section, the free days, slab rates can also be changed individually for the container.
The delay tracking costs for a workflow are displayed as follows:
The Delay Tracking Costs tab displays the following:
Tracking Type The type of tracking which we want to calculate.
Carrier The name of the Carrier for which the Free Days are applicable.
Job Type The type of shipment for which the delay definition is applicable .
Size The size of the container for which the Free Days are applicable.
Free Days The number of free days applicable for the carrier and container size.
Slab Days The slabs of the number of days after the free days have elapsed for which the container has a particular Delay Rate.
Slab Rates The Delay Rate applicable to the corresponding slab days.
Final Rate The Delay Rate that will be charged after the defined slab days are over.

Select the type of Carrier from the drop-down list.
Specify the Container Size, it can be either 20 or 40 feet.

Provide a value for workflow free days in Free Days.
