Re: Tracking costs associated orders that require re-planning

Depends how you intend to "capture" the delay/penalty.

My suggestion is, if you may re-plan the order and thus lose the original shipment, is to make sure the penalty is captured on the order (either directly on the order, or on the original shipment and use an agent to copy the penalty back down to the order). This could be as basic as a refnum and value, or perhaps a status?

Then, make sure you copy the refnum to the new shipment if/when you re-plan - thus, with or without a re-plan, your shipment should have some indication of the penalty. Then just make sure you have part of your rate/accessorial that looks for your penalty refnum and rates accordingly.

Hope that made sense? Happy to elaborate a little further if it doesn't.
