The Freights list report is a part of a group of freight reports that provide a comprehensive insight into the company's activity in the Freights module.
With these reports, you can:
- Identify key trends and periods in which the company operates most effectively,
- Assess the efficiency of the best employees,
-Optimize actions related to freight publication.

Data source: data comes from the Freights module.
Data scope: the reports include published freights, covering the full process of their creation, contractors' responses, negotiations and final acceptance, as well as those that ended with the conclusion of a transaction on the platform.

The report contains a complete list of freights published and negotiated on the Platform, along with the most relevant information on freight details from the perspective of settlement.

Based on the data from the report you:

  • can see a summary of completed freight shipments and carriers in one place
  • can analyze the freights that did not result in a transaction and increase transactionality in the future
  • control the freight price per ton/pallet
  • get to know the km rates of the carriers
  • create your own reports based on your freight data
  • can view a list of freights together with the stops along the route.

The Freights list report can be found in the BI reports module. Go to the module and select the Freights list tab:

The report consists of:

  1. KPI - tiles and charts at the top of the report showing the total values
  2. Lists of freights in the table
  3. Data filtering

Setting the scope of analyzed data

You can define the scope of analyzed data using filters.

  1. Click the filter symbol in the right column to open the Freights list report filter settings.

Filter settings
In the filters you can set:

- the time range for the displayed data (Choose calendar) - you can specify the time range for the publication date or unloading date.
- Publication type - including the ones to the exchange (Exchange), to selected/groups (Groups), multi-publications, direct, to a fixed route (Fixed routes), SmartMatch, 
- Employee,
- Transport direction of your freight by country (Country directions) - defined by the country code,
- Body type,
- Freight type,
- Capacity range,
- Offer status: Freights with response (Is response?), freights in negotiation (Is negotiation?), accepted freights  (Is accepted?). 

Note! This type of filter is contextual. If you do not have offers in negotiation, for example, this filter will not appear in your report. In case of multifreight publications, if the offer is partially accepted, it will be included in the accepted freights.

- Carrier name,
- Freight number,
- External ID.

KPI

In the upper part of the report, we present the sum of key metrics related to the entire company.

Hover your mouse over the selected tile, and a tooltip will appear with a description explaining the value displayed in the tile.

Meaning of tiles:

  • Freights published - total number of freights published on the Trans.eu Platform
  • Freights with responses - total number of price proposals received from carriers in response to a unique freight offer, along with their percentage share in the total number of published freights.
  • Freights with negotiation - total number of freights currently in negotiation, along with their percentage share in the total number of published freights.
  • Accepted freights - total number of published freights that resulted in concluding a transaction, along with their percentage share in the total number of published freights.
  • Not accepted - total number of published freights, which ultimately did not result in a transaction.

List of freights

You can sort the list of freights:

  • by date (publication, loading or unloading),

  • Publication/Loading/Unloading date: date of operation depending on which sorting was selected above,

Did you know that...?

The list of freights includes all freights published on the Trans.eu Platform. Most enterprise reports are based on freights that have been negotiated (freights with a past unloading date, freights accepted or rejected by all participants during negotiations, freights that have been cancelled). On the other hand, in addition to the freights mentioned above, the Freights List report also includes the ones that are still under negotiation.
For some accepted freights (where a transaction has been concluded), the price may be missing. This is due to the lack of information about the currency into which the freight price is converted. The absence of this information is caused by the future date of unloading of the freight and the day on which the selected currency is converted.
