Addresses
The Addresses module in CargoPilot functions as an address book, allowing users to store and manage addresses for shipments and consignee information. This feature simplifies the quoting and booking process by enabling quick access to previously saved addresses.
Usage in Shipments and Quotes
Addresses are used in multiple areas of CargoPilot, including:
- Shipper and Consignee Information – Addresses are essential for defining shipment details.
- Master Airway Bill (MAWB) – Addresses can be applied when generating a MAWB.
- Custom Shippers and Consignees – When adding a different shipper or consignee in the quote and booking screen, addresses can be selected or added.
Adding New Addresses
Adding a new address is straightforward:
- After assembling a quote, the user is presented with an address form.
- The user fills in the shipper and consignee details.
- The user is given the option to save the address for future use (Yes/No).
- If saved, the address is stored in the Addresses module, making future quoting and booking faster.
Benefits of Using Addresses
The Addresses feature is designed to streamline the quoting and booking process by:
- Reducing manual data entry – No need to re-enter shipper and consignee details for recurring shipments.
- Speeding up operations – Select from saved addresses instead of typing them manually.
- Ensuring consistency – Avoids errors in address details by reusing stored information.
In summary, Addresses provide a simple yet powerful tool to enhance the efficiency of the quoting and booking workflow within CargoPilot.
