No. Shipstore does not store carrier tariffs. It asks each carrier's system for the rate live at the moment you request it, so a tariff the carrier updates on your account takes effect right away, with no Shipstore-side load.
Before you start
This applies to LTL carriers (LTL means less-than-truckload freight) that rate live through their own system, using the account details on your profile.
How rating works
Shipstore does not keep local rate tables. Each rate comes straight from the carrier's pricing system when you request it, using the account details on your integration. Because the rate is fetched live, a tariff the carrier updates on your account is reflected right away in Shipstore.
What to do
- Know that a tariff the carrier updates on your account shows up right away in Shipstore, with no separate Shipstore load.
- Confirm the account details Shipstore uses are the ones tied to the correct account and tariff with the carrier.
- If rates look wrong, check with the carrier that the expected tariff is active on the account Shipstore uses, rather than waiting for a Shipstore update.
What you should see
A rate in Shipstore matches the carrier's own quote for the same shipment on the same account. After the carrier updates your account tariff, new rate requests reflect it with no Shipstore change.
