Freight matrices hold your recurring lanes with customer and carrier rates on their own basis: per ton, per bushel, per load. PC*MILER practical miles are built in and flow into pay.

What it does

Rates, matrices & PC*MILER

Lane templates

Customer, origin, destination, product, equipment and carrier, plus both rates with their basis, saved under a matrix code.

"Create load" on every row

Turn a saved lane into a fully priced load without retyping a single field.

Rate on its real basis

Per ton, per bushel at 56 or 60 lb, per CWT, per gallon or per load, with billing on origin or destination weight.

PC*MILER inside

Practical, shortest or fastest routes, toll avoidance and vehicle configuration, without leaving the TMS.

Miles that feed pay

Practical miles are used for finalized pay unless you enter actual miles on the load.

The rate sheet, as data

Most bulk operations run the same few hundred lanes all year. Store each one with the customer rate, the carrier rate and how each is calculated, then build loads from the template. Import the matrix from a spreadsheet to start.

Truck-legal miles, in the TMS

Plan a route with PC*MILER without leaving BulkTMS: practical, shortest or fastest, avoiding tolls, for your vehicle configuration. The practical miles are what finalized pay uses unless the load records actual miles.
