Reassign a Shipment in Outbound Working Loads
Overview
Shipments can be reassigned to another load that shares its destination in the Outbound Working Loads tile. Optimiz reassigns the shipment to the new load if the load that the shipment is being reassigned to is not in Closed status and contains a segment that matches the shipment's origin or destination. If a tender has already been issued for the load prior to the new shipment, Optimiz sends an updated tender to account for the change. If the new load does not contain a segment that matches, Optimiz completes all required check calls up to the stop that includes the new shipment.
