Who can use this feature?

The feature is available to all users of the Trans.eu Platform.

Access requirements: A Visibility or Monitoring Visibility status is required (on at least one transport).

In this article, you will learn:

  • who and when can add an additional cost to an order,
  • what the cost-adding process looks like,
  • how the other party verifies the cost,
  • what happens after the cost is accepted or rejected.

This feature allows both parties to an order to add and verify additional costs.

Adding an additional cost

Either party to the order can add an additional cost.

  1. Open the order details.
  2. Go to the Costs tab.
  3. Click Add cost.
  4. Fill in:
  • the cost name,
  • the category,
  • the value (amount or percentage)
  1. Assign the cost to the selected transport (optional).
  2. Add attachments and a comment (optional).
  3. Save the cost.

After saving, the cost is sent for verification by the other party.

Cost verification by the other party

If the other party adds a cost, you will see it in the Costs tab in the order details.

  1. Open the order details.
  2. Go to the Costs tab.
  3. Select one of the options:
  • Accept - the cost will be recognized and settled.
  • Reject - the cost will not be recognized and will receive the status "Rejected".

Once a cost is accepted, it cannot be edited.

FAQ
