BrokerWare System Updates

New Features & Enhancements

Dashboard

• Removed the Source Capacity and Active Shipments buttons.

Fraud Contact Indicator

• Added the ability to override a contact's phone number being flagged as fraud.
• This can be done on the shipment profile or within the Dispatch modal.

Total Transportation & Distribution

• Added E-Dispatching functionality.

Report Builder

• Updated logic to not allow customer logins with Vendor and Restricted Vendor access to view assigned reports for their customer profile.
• Fixed issue where carrier signed electronic rate con sheets were not properly reflecting the correct Dispatcher on report results.

Hide Zero Dollar Invoice Breakdown - EDI 210s

• Added support to honor the "Hide Zero Dollar Invoice Breakdown" setting within template-based EDI 210 output.
• When enabled via customer's Invoice Preferences, the EDI 210 file will only include commodities and accessorials with a billed amount greater than $0.

Top Stack Only

• Added a new "Top Stack Only" checkbox toggle in the Edit Commodity section, positioned next to the existing "Stackable" option.

Address Book Lookup

• Added the ability for users to look up and select saved addresses directly from the customer's address book when creating or editing quotes and stops.
• Introduces a "Choose Stop" capability within the short form, full form, and the Add/Edit Stop modals.
• Filters the lookup to display strictly customer-specific saved addresses (global addresses are excluded to maintain cleaner, targeted data).
• Selecting an address automatically populates the zip code on the UI, and seamlessly fills out the remaining full address fields in the backend when the shipment/load is generated.

Falvey Insurance

• Added new setting for Falvey called "Commodity Category Required".
• When enabled, this will require the Commodity drop down to have a value when a Shipment Value is provided to trigger an insurance rate.
• Users will be blocked from running the LCR and prompted with a validation flag to indicate some required fields are missing.

Highway

• Automation of New Carrier Onboarding
  • Completed and approved carrier packets from Highway are now automatically added as active carriers in the system.
  • If a carrier record already exists (previously flagged as UPDATE status), the onboarding packet will automatically accept and connect to the existing Highway record.
  • This automation eliminates the manual "Carrier Onboarding" screen entirely.
• Auto-Onboarding Toggle Configuration
  • Added a new configuration option within Highway settings, allowing individual clients to toggle auto-onboarding on or off depending on whether they want to automatically onboard every carrier that completes a packet.
• Instant Carrier Updates via Webhooks
  • Upgraded the tracking system to webhooks to ensure changes triggered by Highway Alerts sync to carrier profiles nearly instantaneously.
  • Any updates not covered by the webhooks will continue to run via a full weekly refresh every Saturday.
• Highway Auto Onboarding

Invoice Preferences - Include Invoice PDF with Supporting Documents

• Added a new configuration option to send a PDF Invoice document alongside other supporting documents to a user's sFTP.

Team Worldwide Service Level Mapping

• Implemented programmatic logic to execute separate API requests to Team Worldwide's rating endpoint for individual service levels.
  • This allows for efficient retrieval of multiple rates simultaneously.

TST-CF Express

• Integrated the Rate Quote API.
• Integrated the E-Dispatch function via API.

Customer Preference - Unit Type

• A new optional Unit Type field has been added next to the existing Unit Count field on commodity lines.
• This allows users to clarify what the unit count represents in terms of package types (e.g., Cartons, Boxes, etc.).
• Unit Type Dropdown: Includes options for Bags, Boxes, Bundles, Cartons, Cases, Crates, Pieces, Rolls, and Totes.
• Display Only: Values appear on the BOL and in the Report Builder
• Show Informational Unit Type on Commodity Lines

EFW

• Added a new optional Omit Reference Number From EFW Dispatch preference at the tariff level.
• When enabled (True), the Reference Number (REF# / PO Number) will be suppressed and excluded from the EFW dispatch payload.

Sunset Pacific

• Updated the Sunset Pacific Rating API integration.

Omit Non-Hazmat Certified Carriers

• Updated the global default setting (renamed to "Omit Non-Hazmat Certified Carriers") and expanded its functionality
• When enabled, this feature filters out and omits carriers without an active hazmat certificate from being selected across key operational areas if a commodity on the load is flagged as Hazmat.
• This now applies to the LCR, Source Capacity, and the Mark Delivered & Invoiced function.

Customer Charge Markup

• If a customer has this feature enabled, the Freight Charge column will now be displayed to staff users; currently this was only visible to customer logins which made it difficult for staff to reference without having to log in as an actual customer user.

Shipper Pickup # field

• Introduced a new alphanumeric reference field, Shipper Pickup #, with a strict character limit of up to 100 characters.
• This field is located in the Reference Information section on a shipment profile.
• This field is also searchable in Report Builder - Shipment Type reports.

Invoicing Method Lock on Revised CSR

• Added a security lock to the Invoice Method field during the submission of a revised Customer Service Request (CSR).
• Behavior: If a customer's invoicing method is set to EDI or Master Invoice, the field is automatically grayed out and non-editable for standard station, non-admin, and non-CSR team users.
• Bug Fix: Resolves a system issue where submitting a revised CSR (e.g., updating addresses or credit terms) would inadvertently overwrite critical setups and default the invoicing method back to "Email."
• Permissions: Admin and CSR Team users retain full editing access; once they shift an account away from EDI or Master Invoice, standard station users will regain edit permissions for that field.

EDI Enhancements

• Added the ability to customize outbound 210 file name formats
• Added support for mapping additional fields—including Carrier Reference #, Shipper #, PO Reference, PRO Number, Shipment Mode, Invoice Due Date, and Payer Bill-To Code—while introducing the ability to utilize these variables in document file naming conventions and designate specific subdirectories for backup documents.

Fort Transportation

• Integrated the E-Dispatch function via API.

Accessorial List

• Modified the accessorial management page to display and allow editing of rating codes for both standard and custom accessorials.
• Rating codes will now auto-generate for any new custom accessorials created in the future.

Hide Email Dispatch

• New global default added where, if enabled, the Email Dispatch option will be hidden for all LTL shipment-mode loads in the Dispatch modal.

Carrier Lane Owner

• New feature located under the Tools menu that automatically assigns a staff member using a dynamic lookup table.
• The system evaluates shipments based on the following criteria to determine the correct owner:
  • Customer Name
  • Carrier Name
  • Origin & Destination City
  • Zip Codes
• The shipment must be moved to at least Booked Covered status or Dispatch in order for the lane owner to populate.
• If no matching record is found within the configuration lookup table, the system will automatically default the Lane Owner to the Dispatcher assigned to the shipment.
• This applies to rate selected from the LCR (API and non-API tariffs) as well as manually adding a carrier to a load that fits the lane owner criteria setup.
• Staff permissions added:
  • Operation - View Carrier Lane Owner: Allows users to view the Lane Owner on the shipment profile and grants read-only access to the new Lane Owner Configuration page.
  • Admin and Manager - Edit Carrier Lane Owner: Grants full administrative rights to add, edit, or delete entries on the Lane Owner Configuration page, as well as modify the Lane Owner on individual shipment profiles.
• Lane Owner field on shipments can also be searched for via Report Builder.

FedEx Freight

• Added a dedicated confirmation pop-up alert for critical carrier notices (e.g., "The required international shipping forms must be presented to driver at time of pickup"), ensuring users explicitly acknowledge post-dispatch instructions rather than missing them in standard success banners.
• This will appear in the confirmation modal when an E-Dispatch is successful.

Magnum Logistics

• Integrated API Tracking.

Oracle - Sales Person

• Converted the previously hardcoded Oracle Sales Person list into a dynamic, per-client list.
• Moved the management of the Oracle Sales Person list into the CSR settings, allowing users to add and manage sales reps similarly to how collectors are handled.

Onward Delivery - Final Mile

• Tariff Customer Specific Pricing (CSP) Tooltip: Added a Need Help? tooltip that is displayed when the "Use customer specific pricing" option is checked.
• Global Integration Setup: Expanded the Need Help? informational modal on the global integrations setup page to include final-mile rate requirements.

Naming Management

• Expanded the Naming Management capabilities to allow more granular control over button and reference labels across the system.
• Dispatch Buttons: Added the ability to specifically rename the Dispatch and E-Dispatch buttons on the Dispatch Popup Modal.
• Reference Labels (Pickup #): Added support for updating reference labels (such as Pickup # and Pickup Number). These updated labels will dynamically reflect in:
  • The Shipment Profile (Reference Information section)
  • The Dispatch Modal
  • The Report Builder
  • Invoices and BOLs (where specific workflow templates are enabled)

Unified Logistix Group - Final Mile

• Added Unified Logistix Group (ULG) as a final mile carrier option within the Least Cost Routing (LCR) system.
• Supports both rating as a final mile carrier as well as E-Dispatch capabilities.

Bug Fixes

Old Dominion Freight Lines

• Fixed E-Dispatch issue where users were getting an unexpected character while parsing error.

Cross Country Freight

• Fixed tracking issue where shipments were not receiving updates to update shipment statuses.

FedEx Freight Priority

• Fixed issue with carrier cost rating error.
• Fixed E-Dispatch issue where the pickup request would fail due to unsupported cross-border services combined with hazardous goods on shipments.

TForce Worldwide - FedEx Freight Priority

• Fixed issue where the FedEx Freight Priority rate returning from TForce Worldwide was not generating in the LCR.

ABF Freight

• Fixed E-Dispatch issue where weight totals per commodity line were incorrectly being sent to the carrier.

Pitt Ohio

• Fixed rating issue where Trade Show accessorials were incorrectly mapped to Limited Access accessorial codes. The carrier does not support Trade Show services and therefore will no longer provide a rate for those accessorials.

XPO Logistics

• Fixed rating issue where the Guaranteed and Guaranteed by Noon rates were not displaying as an option in the Guaranteed Services section of the LCR.

Southeastern Freight Lines

• Fixed E-Docs issue where documents were returning as TIFF files instead of PDF.
• Fixed issue where API tracking was incorrectly marking shipments as Delivered when delivering to partner carriers.

R&L Carriers

• Fixed issue where an additional field was showing in the CSP setup on API tariffs.

WWEX

• Fixed E-Dispatching issue where the BOL instructions and shipper & consignee public notes were not mapped correctly in the pickup request.

Team Worldwide

• Fixed issue where the Quote # string caused buttons in the LCR to extend past the bounding fields.

TMS Login Background

• Fixed issue where Login Screen Backgrounds were not properly appearing when on the login landing page.

Bazaar

• Fixed issue where updates to accessorials made on the seller's side were not properly reflecting on the buyer's loads.

Change Reason

• Fixed issue where the Change Reason options were not appearing when mass updating the Pickup Dates in the Confirm Pickups tile.

Source Capacity

• Fixed issue where an internal server error was occurring when assigning carriers to loads.

Freight Claims

• Fixed issue where users received an object reference not set error upon creating a claim.

Report Builder

• Fixed issue where the Export to Excel function was erroring out due to the field Last Private Note exceeding the maximum character limit.
• Fixed an issue where report schedules using complex monthly expressions (e.g., "on the weekday nearest day 30 of the month") failed to advance their NextRunningDate after executing.

Check Call

• Modified the check call modal on the shipment profile so that entering a zip code is no longer required if both the city and state are provided.

Edit Commodity

• Fixed an issue in the commodity edit modal where length, width, and height dimensions were incorrectly being flagged as required for Truckload shipments.
  • Dimensions will now correctly remain optional during commodity updates, matching the initial full-form creation logic and allowing users to save edits (such as pieces, weight, or description) without entering placeholder dimensions.

Access Log

• Fixed issue where master account logins were not displaying the master account customer profile in the Access Log's Company column.

View Rates / Rate Quotes Snapshot

• Fixed issue where Guaranteed Rate carrier costs were displaying twice.

Custom Reference Fields

• Fixed display issue where Custom Ref names on shipment profiles were not properly displaying the entire name.

UI Issues

• Fixed display issue for the menu drop down (top right corner, 9 dots) where the text was extending past the bounding box.
• Removed stray text from bottom of shipment profiles.

Public Shipper Notes

• Fixed issue where updates made to the Public Shipper Notes were failing to save and were not recorded to the shipment notes.

Case Management

• Fixed issue where the Case Management history feed where selecting individual activity tabs (Emails, Status Changes, and Internal Comments) failed to isolate the chosen category.
  • The feed now correctly filters and displays only the corresponding activity type, improving case review efficiency and auditing accuracy.

BOL Template - Template 2

• Fixed issue where the Bill of Lading (BOL) was incorrectly pulling the shipment's pick-up date from the Original Shipment Information section.
  • The BOL has been updated to correctly pull the date from the Pick-Up Date field located within the Shipping and Receiving Locations section.
• Fixed an issue where clicking on the Email tab did not properly swap the view, which could leave the action button incorrectly stuck on "Internal Comment." The tab now switches reliably, and the action button correctly displays Send when replying to or forwarding emails.

Invoice Preferences

• Fixed the invoice rendering logic for both emailed and printed invoices due to the Hide Breakdown preference. This now correctly suppresses individual accessorial dollar amounts while preserving the accessorial descriptions and displaying only the overall invoice total.

Bazaar

• Fixed issue where public notes from a shipper and consignee stop from a buyer's load were not carrying over to the seller's system.

Accessorials

• Fixed issue where shipments created via API were duplicating accessorials on loads.
• Fixed issue where certain accessorials were not available to use via Edit Commodity.

Excessive Length accessorial

• Fixed issue where the accessorial mapping for Excessive Length for Dayton Freight and R&L Carriers was not properly aligned for markup control.

Convoy

• Fixed a technical issue where shipment documents (BOLs, PODs, Rate Confirmations) synced via the Convoy integration failed to render or download, resulting in an XML authorization/token expiration error.
• Fixed an issue where postings to Convoy failed with a "delivery-by date in the past" validation error. The system now utilizes the estimated delivery date for validation and mapping rather than the hidden DeliveryBy date field when OnTime reporting is disabled.

EDI Accessorial Code Translation Fix

• Fixed a merging issue in the staging environment that prevented custom EDI codes (such as fuel surcharges) from correctly translating and appearing within generated EDI 210 invoice files.

Invoice Printing

• Fixed issue where staff users were able to see invoices from other divisions they were not assigned to. Access is now restricted based on the division hierarchy and staff users can only see invoices associated with their assigned division and direct sub-divisions.
• Added division filters to both Invoice Printing and Invoice Printing History.

Dispatch Document - Drayage Shipments

• Fixed issue where the Vessel Name and Voyage IMO values were missing from the Dispatch sheet.

BOL Document

• Fixed issue where blank spaces caused unnecessary page breaks.

Multi-Stop Default

• Fixed issue where Stop Number values were incorrectly labeling the wrong commodities due to this default.
  • When the EnableMultiStop configuration is active, the legacy "Stop Number" fields and column views are now hidden and disabled across the user interface (including the full form and shipment profile).
  • Stop assignments are now managed exclusively through the Assign Stop (PICKUP/DROP) functionality to prevent conflicting routing data.

Customer Statement

• Fixed issue where commas were missing in totals.

Shipment Notes

• Fixed issue where shipment notes were displaying the provider to customer logins.
  • Customers will now see a public note indicating the direct carrier associated with the rate chosen.
  • Staff users will be able to see a private note indicating the provider of the load as well as the carrier associated.

PC Miler

• Fixed issue where miles were not calculating due to a Bad Request (Zip code indicating a PO Box).
  • Updated the PC Miler routing logic to map and pass the full street address details (StreetAddress, City, State, Zip) rather than relying exclusively on the ZIP code.

Zip Codes

• Fixed issue where the message of an invalid US zip code would appear even though the city and state were valid. This was occurring with customer logins.

AP Aging Detail Report

• Fixed issue where a GUID# field was being included in the exported report.

Shipment Uploader - Customer Profile

• Fixed issue where the customer name was not displayed on the Shipment Uploader page when accessing from the customer profile.

Carrier Contact Visible

• Introduced a new customer preference, "Carrier Contact Visibility," designed to restrict unauthorized data access.
  • When the preference is enabled, this setting controls whether customer users can view the full list of carrier contacts when dispatching shipments.

Electronic Rate Con Document

• Fixed issue where if multiple users attempted to sign the Rate Con Document were dispatching loads twice in the system. This fix will help prevent the double-click action that caused certain loads to be updated twice.

Linear Feet

• Removed the logic that forces the Linear Feet field to 0 when automatic calculation is disabled.
  • The system will now successfully preserve and maintain existing manual entries or pre-saved values throughout the shipment lifecycle (commodity updates, booking, and dispatching).
