#### 7. Conditional Save-to-Master Behavior for Shipment Items

Organizations can now configure whether newly typed shipment items should automatically save to the Item Master list.

New configuration:

* Save typed item to master = TRUE
* Save typed item to master = FALSE

When enabled, newly entered item names are automatically added to the master item list during shipment save.

When disabled, typed items remain shipment-specific and are not stored globally.

The system also prevents duplicate item master entries when existing item names are reused.

This enhancement provides greater control over item master governance and shipment-level flexibility.

#### 8. Driver Shipment Acceptance and Decline Workflow in Mobile App

The CargoSpot Mobile App now supports shipment assignment approval workflows for drivers.

Assigned shipments now appear within the driver mobile application where drivers can:

Additional UI and performance improvements have also been delivered across carrier routing and shipment workflows.

Details of new features and enhancements:

***

#### **1. FTL Pallet Label Generation and Regeneration**

FTL shipment document management has been enhanced with the ability to manually generate pallet labels directly from the Documents section of an FTL shipment.

Unlike the existing LTL workflow where pallet labels are automatically generated, FTL pallet labels are now generated on demand by users. When pallet data is available, users can generate pallet labels for all pallets associated with the shipment, and the generated documents are stored within the shipment Documents section for download and tracking purposes.

The generated pallet label format maintains consistency with the existing LTL pallet label structure and layout, ensuring operational parity across shipment types.

The system validates shipment and pallet information before generation. If required shipment data is incomplete or missing, pallet label generation is prevented and the user is notified accordingly.

Users can also delete previously generated pallet labels and regenerate updated labels after shipment or pallet information changes. Duplicate pallet label generation is prevented when labels already exist for the shipment.

#### **2. Carrier Selection Modal UI and Performance Enhancements**

Carrier routing and selection workflows have been significantly optimized to improve usability, search efficiency, and modal performance.

The Carrier Selection modal now includes a cleaner carrier card interface with reduced visual clutter, optimized spacing, and improved readability during carrier selection workflows.

Infinite scrolling has been introduced to dynamically load carriers as users scroll through the modal, improving performance for organizations with large carrier datasets. Loader indicators are displayed while additional carriers are fetched.

Carrier search functionality has been enhanced to support searching by multiple carrier attributes including Carrier Name, MC Number, and DOT Number, enabling faster carrier discovery during routing workflows.

Performance improvements have also been implemented to ensure carrier list APIs are triggered only once during modal initialization, preventing redundant API calls and duplicate loader displays.

#### **3. Driver and Tracker Type Creation from Add Tracking Location Popup**

Shipment tracking workflows have been enhanced to allow users to create drivers and tracker types directly from the Add Tracking Location popup without leaving the Manage Shipment page.

Users can now select existing drivers from the Driver dropdown or choose the new Add new driver option to launch the New Driver modal directly from the tracking workflow. The modal supports driver creation with fields including First Name, Last Name, Email, Mobile Number, and auto-generated Username values.

Once saved successfully, the newly created driver becomes immediately available within the Driver dropdown and is automatically associated with the selected carrier and tracking location.

Tracking workflows have also been enhanced to support tracker type creation directly from the Tracker Type dropdown. Users can launch the Add Tracker Type modal from the dropdown and create new tracker types dynamically. Newly created tracker types become immediately available for selection after creation.

These enhancements streamline tracking configuration workflows and eliminate the need for users to navigate to separate administration pages during shipment operations.

#### **4. Flexible Item Name Entry for FTL Shipments**

FTL shipment item configuration has been enhanced to provide more flexibility during shipment creation and editing workflows.

For FTL shipments, the Item Name field now appears as a free-text textbox instead of a predefined dropdown selection. This allows users to manually enter custom item descriptions without being restricted to configured dropdown values.

This enhancement applies to both Shipment Creation and Manage Shipment workflows for FTL shipments.

#### **5. Direct Shipment Status Updates from Shipment Manage Page**

Shipment lifecycle management has been streamlined through the introduction of direct status update functionality from the Shipment Manage page.

Users with shipment status update permissions can now update shipment statuses directly using an editable status dropdown without entering Edit mode. The dropdown dynamically displays only valid next statuses based on configured shipment lifecycle rules.

When a user selects a new shipment status, the system displays a confirmation popup and immediately applies the updated status after confirmation. Status changes are saved directly from the Shipment Details page, reducing navigation steps and improving operational efficiency.

Users without shipment status update permissions continue to see the shipment status as a read-only field.

#### **6. Carrier Master Editing from Carrier Selection Modal**

Carrier assignment workflows have been enhanced to allow users with appropriate permissions to edit carrier master details directly from the Carrier Selection modal during shipment workflows.

An Edit icon is now available next to carrier records within the carrier selection interface for users with carrier-edit permissions. Selecting the icon opens an Edit Carrier modal pre-populated with existing carrier master data including Carrier Name, SCAC code, MC Number, DOT Number, Carrier Logo, ELD Status, Payment Terms, Transport Mode, and Preferred LTL Carrier configuration.

Users can update carrier information without navigating away from shipment workflows.

Upon successful submission, the system saves updates to Carrier Master, closes the Edit Carrier modal, and refreshes the Carrier Selection modal automatically so updated carrier information is immediately available for selection without page reload.

Users without carrier edit permissions do not see the Edit icon and cannot access carrier editing functionality from the modal.

#### **7. Default Tracker Type from Organization Configuration**

Shipment tracking configuration has been enhanced to support automatic Tracker Type assignment during shipment creation workflows.

The Tracker Type field now automatically defaults to the configured Manual Tracker Type value defined in Organization Configuration settings. This ensures consistent shipment tracking behavior across the organization and reduces manual selection effort during shipment creation.

The enhancement improves standardization of shipment tracking configuration while maintaining organization-level control over tracking defaults.

#### **8. Driver Journey Pause and Resume Functionality**

The CargoSpot Mobile App has been enhanced with new journey pause and resume capabilities to improve real-time shipment visibility and operational accuracy during transit.

Drivers can now pause active shipment journeys directly from the shipment details screen within the mobile application. When a journey is paused, the system updates the shipment status to Journey Paused, records the pause timestamp, and notifies backend systems immediately.

During pause initiation, drivers are required to select or enter a pause reason from configurable options including Rest Break, Fuel Stop, Traffic Delay, Vehicle Issue, or Other.

Drivers can later resume the journey using the Resume Journey action, which updates the shipment execution status back to In Transit, resumes location tracking, and recalculates ETA based on the driver’s current location, remaining route distance, and stop operating hours.

Dispatchers and operations users can view pause events in real time from the admin interface, including pause reason, timestamp, and driver location at the time of pause.

The system also prevents duplicate pause actions, enforces pause availability only after trip start, and maintains a complete audit trail of all pause and resume events including shipment ID, driver ID, timestamps, GPS location, and pause reasons.

#### **9. Customer Credit Limit Configuration**

Customer financial configuration has been enhanced to allow administrator users to define customer credit limits during customer creation workflows.

Users with Administrator privileges can now view, edit, and configure the Credit Limit field while creating new customer records. This enhancement enables organizations to control customer credit exposure directly from the customer onboarding process.

For non-administrative users, the Credit Limit field remains hidden based on permission configuration, ensuring that only authorized users can assign or modify customer financial limits.

This enhancement improves financial governance and strengthens role-based access control for customer credit management.

#### 10. External API Changes

This release also includes external API updates and backend integration enhancements. These API enhancements improve system interoperability, support expanded operational workflows, and ensure alignment between CargoSpot platform functionality and external integrations.

#### **2. Unified Location Search by Name and Address**

Location search functionality has been enhanced to allow CargoSpot users to search locations using either location name or address details within a single search field. Users can now search using Address Line 1, Address Line 2, City, State, or ZIP code, improving speed and flexibility during shipment entry workflows.

This enhancement is available across key operational modules including Shipment Creation, Quick Quote, and the Manage Shipment page. When a matching location is selected from the search results, the system automatically populates the associated location details into the shipment record.

This unified search capability reduces lookup effort and improves accuracy when selecting pickup and delivery locations during shipment planning and execution.

#### **3. Driver Waiting at Pickup Location Exception Rule**

Exception monitoring capabilities have been expanded with the introduction of an automated rule to flag shipments when drivers remain at the pickup location beyond a configured waiting threshold without pickup confirmation.

When the system detects that the driver location matches the pickup location, the shipment status is At Pickup, and the shipment is not yet Picked Up, the configured waiting-duration threshold is evaluated. If the threshold is exceeded, the system automatically applies the exception flag Driver Waiting at Pickup Location.

Administrators can configure the waiting-time threshold in hours or minutes through exception rule configuration settings, with a recommended default of 1 hour.

#### **4. Missing POD After Delivery Exception Rule**

Shipment documentation monitoring has been strengthened through the introduction of a configurable exception rule that automatically flags shipments when the Proof of Delivery (POD) document is not uploaded within a defined time window after delivery.

When a shipment reaches Delivered status and the POD document remains unavailable beyond the configured threshold duration, the system automatically assigns the exception flag Missing POD After Delivery. The default threshold is set to 24 hours, and administrators can configure this duration as required.

#### **5. Pickup Window Missed Exception Rule**

Shipment execution monitoring capabilities have been enhanced through the introduction of a Pickup Window Missed exception rule that automatically flags shipments when pickup confirmation is not completed within the configured pickup stop window timeframe.

When the current system time exceeds the pickup stop window End Time and the pickup stop status remains not marked as Picked Up, the system evaluates the shipment against the configured grace period threshold. If the configured grace period is exceeded, the system automatically assigns the exception flag Pickup Window Missed.

Administrators can configure the pickup delay grace period in minutes or hours through exception rule configuration settings. When triggered, the system records an activity log entry including shipment ID, stop ID, pickup stop window End Time, configured grace period, and exception trigger timestamp.

#### **6. Delivery ETA Exceeded Exception Rule**

Shipment monitoring capabilities have been expanded with the introduction of a Delivery ETA Exceeded exception rule that automatically flags shipments when delivery ETA is crossed without a corresponding status update.

When the current system time exceeds the configured Delivery ETA and the shipment status is not marked as Delivered, the system evaluates the shipment against the configured grace period threshold. If the grace period is exceeded, the system automatically assigns the exception flag Delivery ETA Exceeded.

Administrators can configure the Delivery ETA grace period in minutes or hours through exception rule configuration settings.

#### **7. Rate Confirmation Not Sent After Carrier Acceptance Exception Rule**

Carrier dispatch readiness monitoring has been enhanced through the introduction of an automated exception rule that flags shipments when a Rate Confirmation document is not sent within a configured timeframe after carrier acceptance.

When the carrier offer status is Accepted and the rate confirmation has not been sent within the configured threshold duration, the system automatically assigns the exception flag Rate Confirmation Not Sent.

Administrators can configure the waiting-time threshold in minutes or hours through exception rule configuration settings, with a recommended default of 2 hours.

#### **8. Shipment-Level Execution Interval Configuration for Exception Rule Actions**

Exception rule configuration capabilities have been enhanced to support shipment-level execution intervals for each configured action.

Administrators can now define an Interval in Minutes value separately for each action within an exception rule. This interval determines how frequently the system re-evaluates and executes the action per shipment once the exception condition is satisfied.

The existing Minutes Near Trigger configuration field has been removed from the user interface and rule execution logic. A default interval value of 60 minutes is applied, and administrators can modify this value as required.

For Notification actions and AI Voice Call actions, the interval field is mandatory. For Flag actions, the interval configuration is optional.

#### **9. Automatic Activity Log Creation for System-Triggered Exceptions**

Activity logging capabilities have been enhanced to automatically record exception application and clearance events when triggered by system-evaluated exception rules.

When a shipment meets configured exception criteria, the system automatically applies the exception and creates an activity log entry indicating the exception name, shipment number, trigger condition, action type, timestamp, and actor as System.

If multiple exception conditions are satisfied simultaneously, separate activity log entries are created for each exception applied. Duplicate activity log entries are prevented when exception conditions remain unchanged.

When exceptions configured with auto-clear behavior are resolved automatically, the system records a corresponding activity log entry indicating that the exception was cleared by the system.

#### **10. Generate and Send Rate Confirmation via Contact Selection Popup**

Carrier communication workflows have been enhanced by introducing the ability to generate or regenerate Rate Confirmation documents and send them to selected carrier contacts through a recipient-selection popup.

When users generate a Rate Confirmation document from the shipment profile page, the system displays a popup containing pre-populated carrier contact email addresses and allows users to remove recipients or manually enter additional email addresses.

Once the Rate Confirmation email is successfully sent, the system attaches the document to the shipment record, displays a success notification, and automatically updates the shipment status to Dispatched. If the document has already been sent to the currently assigned carrier, the system prevents duplicate sending.

If the carrier is removed and reassigned later, the system allows Rate Confirmation generation again for the newly assigned carrier.

#### **11. Automatic Shipment Status Update to Dispatched After Rate Confirmation Transmission**

Shipment lifecycle automation has been enhanced to automatically update shipment status to Dispatched after successful Rate Confirmation email transmission to the assigned carrier.

This ensures shipment execution readiness is accurately reflected without requiring manual status updates by operations users.

#### **12. Introduction of Processing Shipment Status for FTL Workflows**

Shipment lifecycle tracking has been enhanced through the introduction of a Processing shipment status for FTL shipments.

This new status provides improved visibility into intermediate workflow readiness stages between shipment setup and dispatch completion.

#### **13. Equipment Selection and Temperature Capture for Reefer Shipments**

Shipment equipment configuration capabilities have been enhanced to support accurate capture of equipment type, equipment weight, and temperature requirements for reefer shipments.

Users can now select equipment from the Equipment Master dropdown and manually enter equipment weight during shipment creation and shipment management workflows. A Reefer checkbox has been introduced, and when selected, the Temperature field becomes mandatory before saving the shipment.

#### **14. Oversized Shipment Identification and Dimension Capture**

Shipment configuration workflows have been enhanced with support for oversized shipment identification and dimension capture.

Users can now select an Oversized checkbox during shipment creation or shipment management. When selected, the system displays mandatory dimension fields including Length, Width, and Height.

Captured dimension values automatically appear in shipment documents including Carrier Rate Confirmation and Bill of Lading along with the Oversized label and associated item descriptions.

#### **15. Automatic Shipment Miles Calculation Based on Stop Sequence**

Shipment planning capabilities have been enhanced through automatic calculation of total shipment miles based on configured stop sequence details.

The system now calculates total distance dynamically using origin, intermediate stops, and destination location data and automatically populates the Miles field within Basic Details. Users can manually override the calculated miles value when required.

If stop details are modified after calculation, the system automatically recalculates the miles value and notifies the user.

#### **16. Stop Scheduling Type, Operating Hours, and Appointment Notes Configuration**

Stop scheduling configuration capabilities have been enhanced across Stop Master, Shipment Creation, Quick Quote, and Manage Shipment workflows to support structured capture of scheduling type, operating hours, and appointment scheduling instructions.

Users can configure Scheduling Type as either FCFS or Appointment-only and define operating hours for each day of the week by selecting operating days, entering opening and closing times, and marking non-operating days as closed. A preview summary of configured operating hours is displayed alongside the configuration section.

When Scheduling Type is configured as Appointment-only, the system displays an Appointment Scheduling Notes field that allows users to capture additional scheduling instructions.

#### **17. Appointment Scheduling Enforcement via Accessorial Integration**

Shipment validation capabilities have been enhanced to automatically enforce appointment scheduling requirements when stops are configured as Appointment-only.

When such stops are used within shipments, the system automatically enables the Appointment Required accessorial and prevents saving the shipment unless the accessorial remains selected. Appointment scheduling notes configured at the stop level are automatically copied into shipment stop notes and remain editable at the shipment level without updating Stop Master configuration.

#### **18. Stop Date and Time Validation Against Operating Hours**

Shipment validation capabilities have been enhanced to ensure stop dates and times align with configured stop operating hours.

When a selected stop date falls on a closed operating day, the system displays a validation message indicating that the location is closed on the selected date. When a stop time falls outside configured operating hours, the system displays a validation message indicating that the selected time is outside the operating hours for the location.

#### **19. Shipment-Level Stop Scheduling Override Support**

Shipment workflows now support controlled override behavior for stop scheduling configuration defined in Stop Master.

Users can modify scheduling details at the shipment level and save changes locally without updating master configuration. If users have appropriate permissions, they may optionally update the Stop Master configuration explicitly.

#### **20. Automatic Scheduling Notes Synchronization to Shipment Stops**

When stops configured with appointment scheduling notes are selected during shipment workflows, the notes are automatically copied into shipment stop notes.

Users can edit these notes at the shipment level, and changes remain shipment-specific without modifying Stop Master configuration.

#### **21. AI Voice Call – Driver Exception Rule Action**

Exception rule automation capabilities have been enhanced by introducing a new AI Voice Call – Driver action type.

When configured exception conditions are triggered and a driver is assigned to the shipment, the system automatically initiates a voice call to the assigned driver using a predefined reason selected during exception rule configuration. If the driver assignment or contact number is unavailable, the system skips execution and records the failure in the activity log.

Configured call reasons are recorded in the activity log when execution succeeds.

#### **22. Team Configuration Activity Log Enhancements**

Administrative visibility into Team configuration changes has been enhanced through structured activity log tracking within the Team Details page.

The system now records activity log entries when users or customers are added to or removed from teams and when team configuration details such as team name, description, or settings are updated. Each activity log entry captures the action type, member type, member or customer name where applicable, updated field name, previous value, updated value, team name, timestamp, and performed by information.

If multiple fields are updated during a single save operation, separate activity log entries are created for each updated field. A dedicated Activity Log tab is now available within the Team Details page to provide centralized visibility into all team configuration changes.

#### **23. Customer Activity Log Enhancements for Team Membership and Customer Detail Updates**

Activity logging capabilities within the Customer module have been enhanced to provide structured tracking of team member assignments and customer configuration updates.

When a team member is added to or removed from a customer record through the Customer Details page, the system automatically creates a Customer Activity Log entry capturing the action type, team member name, customer name, timestamp, and performed-by user information.

Customer configuration monitoring has also been expanded to record updates made to customer profile information such as Customer Name, Address details, Contact Information, and Assigned Team configuration. For each field update, the system records the updated field name along with previous and updated values.

If multiple customer detail fields are updated in a single save action, the system creates separate activity log entries for each updated field change to ensure granular audit traceability.

A dedicated **Activity Log tab** is now available within the Customer Details page, allowing users to view structured history of customer-level membership and configuration updates in a centralized location.

#### **24. Dashboard Navigation via Clickable CargoSpot Logo**

Application navigation usability has been enhanced by enabling the CargoSpot logo in the application header to function as a shortcut link to the Dashboard.

Users can now click the CargoSpot logo from anywhere within the application to quickly return to the Dashboard without navigating through menu structures.

When users with Dashboard access permissions click the logo, the system redirects them directly to the Dashboard page. If a user does not have Dashboard access permissions, the system automatically redirects them to their configured default landing page instead.

This enhancement improves navigation efficiency and reduces the number of steps required to return to primary operational views.

### Release v1.10 – March 16, 2026

The **v1.10 release** introduces enhancements to the CargoSpot platform that improve RFP visibility, notification management flexibility, shipment operational tracking, and financial accuracy. This release also strengthens invoice compliance features, enables global team management controls, and enhances automated exception monitoring to support better operational oversight and collaboration across the platform.

Details of new features and enhancements:

***

#### **1. Carrier Activity Tracking for RFP Bidding**

A new **Carrier Activity page** has been introduced in the **RFP Admin Portal** to provide visibility into carrier engagement and bidding activity for each RFP. This feature allows RFP Admin users to monitor carrier participation and track bidding progress in real time.

The Carrier Activity page displays key engagement metrics including **Carrier Name, Read Instructions status, Bid Entered status, Submitted status, Bid Count, Total Lanes, and Activity Message**. The activity message dynamically reflects the carrier’s current progress, such as **No activity yet**, **Draft bids in progress**, or **Submitted**.

Users can access this page directly from both the **RFP List Page** and the **RFP View Page** via the new **Carrier Activity** button available for each RFP.

To improve usability, the page includes filtering capabilities that allow users to refine results by **Carrier Name, Read Instructions status, Bid Entered status, and Submitted status**. Multiple filters can be applied simultaneously to quickly identify carriers who have engaged with the RFP, entered bids, or completed submission.

This enhancement provides greater transparency into the bidding lifecycle and enables administrators to proactively follow up with carriers during the RFP process.

#### **2. Custom Invoice Enhancements for International Compliance**

Invoice functionality has been enhanced to support more accurate and compliant international shipping documentation.

Users can now select a **Country of Origin** for each goods line item when creating or editing an invoice. The selected value is stored per line item and automatically displayed in the generated **Invoice PDF**, ensuring that shipment documentation accurately reflects the origin of goods.

Additionally, several invoice formatting improvements have been introduced.

These improvements ensure invoice documents remain flexible, accurate, and compliant with international shipping requirements.

#### **3. Global Team Creation Based on Permission**

Team management capabilities have been enhanced to support **Global Team creation** based on user permissions.

Users who are granted the **Global Team Creation permission** can now create teams that are categorized at the **global level** by enabling the **Global checkbox** during team creation. These teams are available for broader organizational configuration and management.

For users who do not have the required permission, the Global Team option remains hidden to prevent unauthorized configuration.

This permission-based control ensures that only authorized administrators can create and manage teams intended for organization-wide use.

#### **4. Notification Management Scope Selection Enhancement**

Notification Management has been enhanced with a new **Scope Selection popup** to provide greater flexibility when managing notification settings.

When the Notification Management page is opened for the first time, the system defaults to **Scope: For Me**, automatically loading notification settings specific to the logged-in user.

Users can change the scope by clicking the **Scope button**, which opens a popup allowing them to select from four scope options:

* **For Me**
* **For Users**
* **Teams**
* **For Organization**

Depending on the selected option, users can choose one or multiple users or teams from a dropdown to view or manage their notification settings. The system displays selected users or teams as **pills** within the Notification Settings page for clarity.

The selected scope applies only to the current session and does not persist across future visits. When the user logs in again or revisits the page later, the scope automatically resets to **For Me**.

This enhancement ensures more intuitive and context-aware management of notification configurations across users, teams, and organizations.

#### **5. Shipment-Level Truck and Trailer Number Capture**

Shipment operational data capture has been simplified by allowing users to enter **Truck Number** and **Trailer Number** directly at the **shipment level**.

The previous **Vehicle selection dropdown and vehicle assignment functionality** have been removed from the shipment creation and management pages. Instead, users can now optionally enter truck and trailer numbers using dedicated text fields.

Both fields are optional, allowing shipments to be saved even when these values are not provided. Users can add, update, or clear these values at any time from the shipment manage page.

This enhancement enables operational teams to record equipment details quickly without requiring vehicle or driver master records, making the system more flexible for real-world dispatch scenarios.

#### **6. Customer Special Instructions in Carrier Rate Confirmations**

Customer management has been enhanced to support **Special Instructions** captured directly within the **Customer Master**.

Users can now enter free-text instructions while creating or editing a customer record. These instructions are stored at the customer level and automatically copied into the **Carrier Rate Confirmation document** whenever a shipment is created for that customer.

The instructions are applied consistently across all shipments associated with the customer. If no instructions are defined in the Customer Master, the Carrier Rate Confirmation document remains unchanged.

This enhancement ensures that recurring operational instructions or requirements are consistently communicated to carriers without requiring manual entry for each shipment.

#### **7. Broker Commission Calculation Based on Shipment Margin**

Broker commission calculations have been enhanced to ensure accurate and automated payout calculations based on shipment profitability.

The system now calculates **margin** using the formula:

**Margin = Customer Cost − Carrier Cost**

Broker commissions are then calculated using the configured commission percentage:

**Commission = Margin × Commission %**

Commission percentages are maintained at the **team-member level** and are automatically populated when a customer is assigned to a team. Each team member can have a different predefined commission percentage, allowing commissions to be calculated individually for multiple team members associated with the same customer.

This enhancement eliminates the need for manual commission entry and ensures consistent and accurate commission calculations based on actual shipment margins.

#### **8. Automated “Missing Location Update” Exception Monitoring**

CargoSpot’s exception monitoring capabilities have been enhanced with automated evaluation and application of the **Missing Location Update** exception.

When enabled at the organization level, the system continuously monitors shipment tracking updates received from **Mobile App or ELD devices**. If no location update is received within the configured threshold duration, the system automatically applies the **Missing Location Update exception** to the shipment.

Upon triggering the exception, the system generates an exception event and sends email notifications to subscribed users. If a shipment already has an active Missing Location Update exception, the system prevents duplicate notifications and repeated exception events.

Once a valid tracking update is received, the system automatically **clears the exception status**, ensuring the shipment no longer appears under active Missing Location Update exceptions.

The system also supports **scheduled rule versions**, ensuring that only the current effective rule configuration is evaluated during monitoring.

This enhancement strengthens operational visibility and ensures timely alerts when shipment tracking updates are delayed or interrupted.

***

### Release v1.9 – March 09, 2026

The v1.9 release focuses on strengthening carrier identification capabilities, enhancing financial reconciliation visibility, improving shipment data governance during duplication, enforcing master data validation standards, expanding automated cost calculation logic, and ensuring strict carrier offer lifecycle control within the CargoSpot TMS platform. This release builds upon existing shipment execution and financial management workflows while introducing enhanced search flexibility, structured audit reporting, controlled duplication validation, and automated cost recalculation mechanisms to improve operational accuracy, compliance, and overall execution efficiency.

Details of new features and enhancements:

#### 1. Enhanced Carrier Search by SCAC, MC Number, and DOT Number

Carrier search functionality has been enhanced to support additional industry identifiers beyond Carrier Name. CargoSpot users can now search carriers using SCAC, MC Number, or DOT Number across key operational areas including Shipment Manage (Send Offer and Add Carriers Manually), Shipment Creation (Carrier selection), and Carrier Master search. The search retrieves results only when these identifiers are available in the carrier master data. This enhancement improves search precision, accelerates carrier identification, and reduces dependency on name-based matching.

#### 2. Introduction of Shipment Audit Report

Financial reporting capabilities have been expanded with the introduction of a new report titled “Shipment Audit Report” under the Reports section. Designed for Finance and Audit users within the CargoSpot organization, this report consolidates shipment-level financial data from Shipment, Shipment Audit (Carrier Cost), Vendor Bill, and Customer Invoice modules.

The report displays key reconciliation fields including Shipment Number, BOL Number, Vendor Bill Number, Total Carrier Cost, Customer Invoice Number, Total Shipment Invoice Amount, and Variance (Invoice Amount – Carrier Cost). It supports search by Shipment Number, date filtering aligned with the Shipment Savings Report, and CSV export functionality. This enhancement strengthens financial transparency, margin validation, and audit readiness.

#### 3. Inactive Stops and Items Validation During Shipment Duplication

Shipment duplication workflows have been enhanced with structured validation for inactive operational data. When duplicating a shipment containing inactive stops, inactive items, or inactive contacts, the system now pauses the duplication process and displays a confirmation popup titled “Review Inactive Shipment Details.”

The popup clearly lists inactive stops, items, and contacts and requires explicit user confirmation before proceeding. If the user chooses to proceed, the New Shipment page opens in duplicate mode with all active data prefilled while excluding inactive records. If cancelled, duplication is aborted and the user remains on the current shipment page. When no inactive records exist, duplication proceeds without interruption. This enhancement ensures data integrity and prevents unintended replication of inactive records.

#### 4. Contact Name Length Restriction in Stop Master

Master data validation has been strengthened by limiting the Contact Name field in the Stop Master Contact section to a maximum of 35 characters. The system prevents entry beyond the limit during creation and edit, validates pasted values exceeding the limit, and displays a clear validation message when necessary.

Existing records with values exceeding 35 characters will continue to display as stored; however, upon edit and save, the 35-character limit will be enforced. This enhancement improves data consistency, formatting compliance, and overall master data quality.

#### 5. Support for Flat and % By Miles Calculation Type for Cost Items (FTL – Carrier Cost Only)

Cost item configuration has been enhanced by introducing a Calculation Type field in the Cost Item Master, applicable to Carrier Cost for FTL shipments. Users can now define cost items as either Flat or % By Miles. All existing cost items default to Flat.

For Flat calculation types, shipment-level behavior remains unchanged with an editable Amount field.

For % By Miles calculation types, a mandatory Percentage field is required at the master level. When added to a shipment, the Percentage auto-populates from master data. The Miles field is available in the Basic Details section and remains editable.

If a user adds a cost item with Calculation Type set to **% By Miles** and attempts to save the shipment without entering a Miles value, the system will display a validation message prompting the user to enter the Miles value and prevent the shipment from being saved.

When a valid Miles value is entered, the system automatically calculates the Amount using the formula:

**Amount = Percentage × Miles**

The calculated Amount is system-generated and automatically recalculates whenever the Miles value is updated.

This enhancement enables controlled mileage-based cost automation while ensuring required inputs are validated at the shipment level to maintain calculation accuracy and data integrity.

#### 6. Automatic Cancellation of Carrier Offers on Cost or Carrier Changes

Carrier offer lifecycle control has been enhanced to prevent outdated offers from remaining active when shipment cost details or carrier assignments change.

If shipment cost details are modified before an offer is accepted, the system automatically updates the existing offer status to Cancelled, clears the active offer from the Manage Shipment page, maintains the shipment status as Covered, and requires the Admin to resend the offer. All changes are logged for audit purposes.

If an assigned carrier is removed while an offer exists (Sent or Accepted), the system cancels the existing offer, removes the carrier assignment, updates the shipment status to Tendered, and allows the Admin to select a new carrier and resend an offer. Confirmation messaging and activity logging ensure transparency and compliance.

This enhancement strengthens governance, ensures offer validity, and improves operational control across carrier collaboration workflows.

***

### Release v1.8 – March 02, 2026

This release builds upon existing carrier offer management capabilities while introducing structured routing integration, configurable exception rules, and improved shipment management controls to enhance overall execution visibility and collaboration efficiency.

Details of new features and enhancements:

#### 1. Routing Rule–Based Counter Offer Management

Cost negotiation workflows have been enhanced by enabling CargoSpot Admin users with appropriate permissions to accept or reject counter offers received from carriers through routing rules. When a carrier submits a counter offer, the routing process automatically pauses, allowing the Admin to review and take action. Upon acceptance, the shipment proceeds with the updated cost, and upon rejection, the routing process continues based on the configured priority sequence. This enhancement ensures controlled cost governance while maintaining automated routing efficiency.

#### 2. Carrier Accept, Reject, or Counter Cost Offer via Routing Rules

Carrier collaboration has been enhanced by allowing carriers to accept, reject, or submit a counter cost offer in response to shipment cost offers received through routing rules. This structured response capability ensures transparent negotiation handling, improves traceability, and keeps the routing process synchronized with carrier decisions.

#### 3. Shipment-Level Cost Offer Sending (FTL Only)

Shipment-level cost offer functionality has been enhanced to support routing-based offers for FTL shipments. Carriers can receive shipment offers with predefined cost configured in routing rules or with blank cost requiring carrier submission. The offer is sent only to the current priority carrier, routing pauses during counter-offer review, and all active carrier contact emails receive the Cost Offer. This enhancement improves cost flexibility while maintaining routing discipline and negotiation traceability.

#### 4. Create a New Exception Rule

Operational monitoring capabilities have been enhanced with the introduction of configurable Exception Rules. CargoSpot users with appropriate permissions can create exception rules with triggers, conditions, and actions so that shipments are automatically monitored and notifications are sent when defined criteria are met.

Shipment quantity tracking has been enhanced by enabling handling quantities to be defined per pickup and delivery stop for FTL shipments. Handling quantity applies to both pickup and delivery stops, each stop appears only once in the handling quantity section based on stop sequence number, and the total quantity is automatically calculated as the sum of all stop quantities. If a stop is removed, its corresponding handling quantity entry is also removed. This functionality is available in Shipment Creation and the Manage page (Item Section Flyout), improving operational accuracy and execution clarity.

#### 7. Auto-Send Tracking Link on Shipment Status Change

Communication workflows have been enhanced by enabling the system to automatically send the shipment tracking link when a shipment reaches a configured status. This enhancement ensures customers receive tracking updates without manual intervention, improving service responsiveness and shipment visibility.

#### 8. Shipment Manage – Stop Contact Edit

Stop-level contact management has been enhanced within the Shipment Manage page. Users can now add a new contact to a stop or edit an existing contact, with an option to update the contact change in the Stop Master. This enhancement improves data consistency while maintaining controlled master data governance.

#### 9. Generate Custom Invoice Document for International Shipment

Document generation capabilities have been enhanced by enabling authorized CargoSpot users to generate a Custom Invoice document for International shipments before confirmation. The “Generate Custom Invoice” button is available in the Carrier section when applicable conditions are met.

Users can enter invoice details with required field validation, select or manually add valid email recipients, and generate the document. The system saves the data, generates the PDF, emails it to selected recipients, and lists it in the Documents section, with an option to regenerate and resend updated versions.
