Setting Up Intermodal Routes

Access the Intermodal Detail Routing Entry Revisions form.

  1. Complete these fields to enter an origin and a destination:

    • Leg Number

      The system assigns numbers in sequence, starting with 1, unless you enter a specific number.

    • Origin Address

    • Destination Address

      The system uses the origin and destination address to split the shipment routing steps into multiple steps, one step for each leg. The destination of a leg becomes the origin of the next leg and so on, for each leg. The first origin and last destination are defined in the parent route.

  2. To specify whether the system calculates a rate for a particular leg, complete the Rate Schedule field:

    This field is optional. Any legs to which rate schedules have been assigned are rated during the routing and rating process.
