If you have multiple terminals, you are faced with the choice of rating freight charges remotely as each driver checks in, or rating freight charges centrally after document packets have been delivered back to the central office.
Rating remotely poses the very difficult task of hiring and training people to perform this highly specialized task. You just can't develop the expertise there to handle all the special cases. But centralized bill rating means long delays before the charges are known.

| With Acordex | Central staff |
Keep your freight bill rating staff at one central office and rate the bills immediately. Remote scan stations at each terminal automatically send documents to the central staff within minutes of the driver's check-in. "Side-by-side billing" presents your database rating screen right next to the BL image.
