Setting up Transport Zone Sets

Table of Contents

Purpose

Please note that if your CartonCloud account was created prior to 1 July 2019 the below functionality may not be available at this stage. If you would like to discuss migrating to the newer version of the CartonCloud TMS, please please use CartonCloud Help and lodge a case with our Service Desk.

Transport Zone Sets are the zones your operation uses for allocating consignments. These zones will work in conjunction with Delivery Runs and Transport Lanes to enable CartonCloud to automatically assign consignments to the appropriate Delivery Run. Only one Transport Zone Set can be created. 

Creating Transport Zone Sets

To create your Transport Zone Set follow the below steps:

  1. Create your Zone Set and zones - create your Zone Set and the applicable zones within each Zone Set 

  2. Create location entries - add or import the suburb and postcode combinations for the locations you service 

  3. Assign location entries to zones - associate location entries with the applicable zones

The below video helps to explain what Zone Sets are and how to set them up within your CartonCloud account.
