Change the carrier assigned to a manifest

Background

Sometimes it is necessary to change the carrier assigned to a manifest such when a new transport company is employed, a driver is changed, or if changes are made to transport company, truck, or driver data.

Before you begin

• Ensure you have access to Manifest.  If you don't see Manifest in your available Elda (Chrome) shortcuts, you may need to request access to it.  
• Please see our article on how to Request access to an Elda Application.

Steps to take

1. If the manifest is Committed
   • Uncheck Committed
   • Click Save Changes
   • Switch to the Run Items tab
   • Remove run items
   • Click Save Changes

   • Switch to the Manifest tab

      

2. Click Build
   The Freight Carriers window will appear

    

3. Select the new transport company you wish to use

    

4. Select the new company truck you wish to use

    

5. Select the company driver you wish to use

    

6. Click Use
   The Freight Carriers window will disappear and the selected carrier will be updated on the manifest 

    

7. Click Save Changes

Where to from here
