The report presents the distribution of loads among individual carriers that execute your transport orders. It also shows the activity of these carriers in a given period and on a specific route.
The Carrier activity report data allows you to:
identify the most and least attractive destinations for carriers,
see how your employees perform in terms of negotiations, publications and transactions with carriers,
quickly review the history of cooperation with carriers,
track the cooperation with contractors in detail - how many of them your company works with on a given route and on which directions it works with the selected carrier.
Navigate through the Carrier activity report
Go to the BI Reports module and select the Carrier activity tab.
The report consists of 4 main sections:
KPIs - key performance indicators:
number of all carriers,
number of published freights,
number of freights that received a price offer,
number of accepted freights,
number of freights without acceptance,
transport costs.
Each value is calculated using data from a specific time period that you set using filters. By default, the report shows data from the last 30 calendar days.
List of carriers - a list of all the carriers your company has approached with freight offers.
Carrier's profile - a section where you can see details of your cooperation with the carrier.
Carriers on the route chart - a chart showing how many carriers we work with on a given route.
Set the range of analysed data
Above the bar with KPIs, you can find information about the range of analyzed data.
You can specify it using the filters located on the right side of the report.
Filter settings
The filters allow you to set the following: - range of displayed data (Unloading date, Publication date), - trend comparison settings (Compare by): monthly, annual, custom setting, - type of publication (Publication type): on the exchange (Exchange), on the private exchange (Private, Corporate), to selected/groups (Company, Groups, Direct), SmartMatch, - employee(s) who published freights (Employee), - directions(Country directions), - loading location of the freights addressed to the carriers (Loading place), - unloading location of the freights addressed to carriers (Unloading place), - size of vehicle (Vehicle size), - type of vehicle (Vehicle type), - type of freight (Freight type), - currency (Currency), - freight number (Freight number), - external ID (ExternalID)
KPI
The report's top section displays the total value for your entire company.
Each KPI is accompanied by a number, a percentage view of the upward or downward trend, and a chart illustrating the value's performance over a specific period.
Hover your mouse cursor over the KPI to see an additional hint:
nn a numerical or percentage value - what the selected value refers to
on the chart - data for the selected value along with the month to which it applies.
Number of all carriers - total number of carriers that started negotiating with your company.
Example: In the selected period (21.01.- 20.02.2024), 322 carriers entered into negotiations. When compared to the previous period (21.12.2023 - 20.01.2024), there is neither a decrease nor an increase in the trend (hence 0.00%).
Freights published - number of all freights published to carriers.
Negotiations - total number of price offers received from carriers.
Accepted freights - total number of transactions concluded with carriers on the Platform.
Not accepted - total number of published freights for which no transaction was made on the Platform.
You can use the Is accepted? option located under the KPI bar on the right. Depending on your selection, you can hide one of the KPIs (e.g., if you select "no", you will not see data for accepted freights. If you select "all", you will see data for both types).
Money paid - total amount of transport costs paid to carriers when concluding a transaction on the Platform. The calculation of costs is based on the date of unloading the freight. Exchange rates are converted according to the date of unloading the freight.
List of carriers
This is a tabular representation of the list of carriers to which freight offers were sent. It is sorted in descending order, so at the very top you will find the carriers with the greatest number of price offers.
