Address Book

You may often ship to or from the same locations. Your Address Book in FreightSimple allows you to save those locations so you only have to enter the information once. This saves you time and helps prevent mistakes from being made.

Each entry in your address book contains

• The address
• Dock hours
• Special instructions for this location
• Contact names and phone numbers
• Any special services that this location needs
• The ability to mark it as a branch location if your business has multiple branches on the same account

Locations you ship to are automatically added to your address book, and you can favourite the ones you want to ship to or from frequently. You can also mark locations as a branch, which makes it easier to manage larger organizations and assign users to each branch.

Adding locations to your Address Book makes it even easier for your team to use FreightSimple. You can set up all of your frequently used locations, and they can easily book shipments moving between them knowing the details are already entered correctly.

Follow the steps below:

1. From the top menu, under the Manage Company tab, select your Address Book, then select "Add New Location" or click on the + sign

   

2. Follow the familiar prompts to enter details of the location, and special services needed
