    • Global: Select this option to apply the ranking type to all route strategies defined on the routing rule.

    • None: Select this option to create a routing rule without any ranking.

    • Within Route Strategies: Select this option to set ranking types individually for each route strategy.

  4. In the Route Strategy grid, click Add to add a route strategy.

    1. In the * Selection dropdown list, select an option. The available options are Carrier Pass-In (Spot), Contract, Market Maker, and Rotational.

    2. In the * Ranking dropdown list, select an option. The available options are as follows:

      Option

      Description

      Carbon Emission

      Carriers are ranked based on carbon emission calculations.

      Carrier Priority

      Carriers are ranked based on the priority assigned to them in the route definition of a routing guide.

      Last Tendered

      Tenders will be assigned to a carrier based on recency on the specific route.

      Least Cost

      Carriers are ranked in ascending order based on the contracted costs for the route defined in the routing guide.

      Least Loaded

      Tenders will be assigned based on the allocation availability and current load factor for a carrier.

      Machine Learning

      Carriers are ranked automatically by the system based on the above factors.

      Note

      Rule Ranking - Global and Within Route Strategies - uses the Earliest Pickup Date Range Start from all the Shipments on the Movement as the date on which to look for Carrier Allocations. Once all Carrier Allocations for the given duration are met, the Tendering Engine reverts to priority-based Tendering.

    3. In the * Distribution dropdown list, select the desired option. The available options are Broadcast and Sequential.
