Who can use this function? This function is available to all users of the Trans.eu Platform and CargoON. |
From this article you will learn:
- how to negotiate in the offer details window and conclude formal transactions
- how to proceed to select financial services
- how to one-sidedly confirm the transaction
Concluding a formal transaction from the carrier’s perspective
A formal transaction takes place when both parties confirm the conclusion of cooperation within an offer on the Trans.eu Platform. If you decide to conclude a formal transaction, you will have the opportunity to:
- issue a rating and comment to the contractor,
- use products supporting payment security on preferential terms,
- impact on the Trans Risk index of a given user.
Negotiating in the offer details window
- Offers of loads to be transported can be found in the Search loads module. Click on the offer you are interested in to expand the window with freight details.
- In the Rate field, enter the amount for which you will provide the transport service, and then click Send.
- The status, visible in the upper right corner, will change to Your offer is pending acceptance. Until your contractor responds to the offer you sent, you can withdraw it.
- Wait for the contractor's response. Upon receiving your offer, the contractor may:
- Accept your offer - you will then see the status Offer accepted.
- Reject your offer - you will see a message about the rejection of the price offer. Both parties can resume negotiations.
- Negotiate the offer you have submitted - in such a situation, the Accept or negotiate rate status will appear, and in the Rate field you will see the contractor's counteroffer.
- If you want to agree to the proposed amount - click Accept.
- If you want to negotiate further, enter a new proposal in the Rate window and then click Send.
Selecting financial services - offer accepted
- If your offer, or the one of someone else from your company, has been accepted, you will find it in the Accepted tab in the Search loads module.
- Find the item you are interested in on the list of accepted offers and click Choose financial services.
- You will see a message that you can use Transcash secure payment. Click Submit your invoice to Transcash.
- We will take you to the Transcash panel, where you can submit a factoring application in five steps.
One-sided confirmation of the transaction
You can one-sidedly confirm the transaction if the offer has already expired and was not previously formally accepted.
- Go to the Archive tab in the Search loads module. You can find there offers that did not result in successful negotiations, i.e. when the client:
- finished negotiations with you,
- chose the offer of another carrier,
- ended the publication of the offer.
- Find the item you are interested in on the list of archived offers and click the Confirm transaction button.
- You will see a message with the freight details that you are confirming. Check the box I confirm the conclusion of the transaction and then click Save and move on.
- You will see a message informing you that you can use Transcash secure payment. Click Submit your invoice to Transcash.
You can also click Cancel and submit the invoice later. To do this, click Choose financial services.
- You will be redirected to the Transcash panel, where you can submit a factoring application in five steps.
