When you sign in to M2X Carrier TMS - General Freight, you are automatically directed to the Consignments page.
This page is the main operational view for managing, tracking, and reviewing all General Freight consignments.
It is designed to be fully configurable, allowing each user to tailor the information shown to their role and workflow.
What is a Consignment?
A consignment represents a freight job from pickup through to final delivery.
It may consist of one or multiple transport legs and includes customer, operational, location, and financial information.
The Consignments page provides a summary view of all consignments and their current progress.
Page Views
The Dispatch section contains four related views:
Consignments - A high-level overview of all active General Freight consignments.
Next to the Consignments tab is a subtle delete (bin) icon. Selecting this icon allows you to view deleted consignments, including their associated details, for reference and auditing purposes.
Consignment Legs - detailed view of individual legs.
Manifests - grouping of legs onto trucks for execution.
Bookings - Displays bookings received from connected corporate clients or customer portal users. When a new booking arrives, a yellow dot appears on the Bookings tab to alert you.
You can switch between these views using the tabs at the top of the screen.
