What should you do?

You are the logistics manager at a distribution company.

Your primary carrier service provides rates for transportation between New York City and Colorado.

These rates are a flat rate depending on the city or general area of pickup as follows:

– New York City = $500

– Colorado = $450

You need to set up Transportation Management to calculate the rate from New York City to Colorado.

What should you do?
A . Use a Point-to-Point engine based on weight and miles. Assign rates from New York City as the starting location and Colorado as the ending location and break the rates out based on the weight of the package.
B . Use a mileage-based rate engine to configure a rate master that calculates the rate based on the miles from New York City to Colorado.
C . Create hubs for both locations. Add a route plan from New York City to Colorado and assign the two charges as spot rates.
D . Set up a Transit Time Engine to track days from New York City to Colorado. Set up rates in the Rate Master tied to day breaks.
