Hi,
We need to restrict OTM from putting shipment stops in a specific state on a multi-stop shipment for a carrier. Let me explain by an example:
Carrier C1 and C2 both have services to Texas (TX) - California (CA) lane. Carrier C1 does not have license to enter Colorado (CO). But carrier C2 has. Carrier C1 is the preferred carrier for this lane due to lower rates. When OTM plans shipments on this lane, it usually creates a drop off stop in CO also. Carrier chosen is C1 always.
Expectation is that while order planning, if there are stops in CO, carrier assigned on this shipment should be C2. If there are no stops in state of CO, carrier C1 will get the shipment.
How do we achieve this in OTM? I tried putting a condition on carrier C1 rate cost to exclude the state CO. But it did not work. Please suggest how this can be done.
