Scheduled Reports
Within cieTrade, users have the option of setting up something called a Scheduled Report. To put it simply, it allows you to send an email containing one of the many reports within the system, to a list a recipients automatically. The reports that are available for you to choose from, are:
Name | Description |
Booking Cutoff Dates | Mirrors the Booking inquiry based on the cutoff date. |
Collections Report | Simplified version of the A/R Aging Detail report. Returned results are based on the due date. |
Scheduled Dispatches | Mirrors the Dispatch inquiry based on the date and status. |
Received Loads | Mirrors the Receiving inquiry based on the received date. |
Vendor Contracts | Mirrors the Service Contract inquiry based on the expiration date. |
Getting Setup
All of your "Scheduled Reports" are managed within your settings. To begin using this feature, follow the steps below:
How to Find:
- Navigate to your Settings.
- Click on the Scheduled Reports tab.
How to Setup:
- Check off the report(s) that you would like to enable.
