Question 1

What is the public quote comparison portal in FreightSetu?

Accepted Answer

The public quote comparison portal is FreightSetu's most unique feature. After you add multiple carrier quotes to an enquiry, FreightSetu generates a shareable link. Your client clicks this link in any browser - no login, no account required - and sees a clean comparison of all carrier options with transit times and total charges. They click "Accept" on their preferred option and the booking is automatically created in FreightSetu. This eliminates the WhatsApp back-and-forth of quote sharing and gives your clients a professional, branded experience.

Question 2

Can I see my margin before sending a freight quote?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This is a core feature of FreightSetu. For every carrier quote, you enter both the buy rate (what the carrier charges you) and the sell rate (what you charge your client). FreightSetu calculates and displays your gross margin in real-time - both in rupees and as a percentage. You always know your profitability before you press send. This prevents the common error of selling below cost due to manual calculation mistakes.

Question 3

Does FreightSetu support quote versioning?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FreightSetu maintains a version history for every quote. When a client negotiates and you revise a quote, the original rates are preserved as an immutable snapshot. This is critical for dispute resolution - you can always show exactly what rates were quoted at what time, with a forensic audit trail including IP address and user-agent when the client accepted.

Question 4

Can I generate a PDF quote from FreightSetu?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FreightSetu generates professional PDF quotes that include your company branding, the carrier options with rates, terms, validity dates, and your contact details. These PDFs can be sent by email or shared via the public portal link.

Question 5

What charge types can I include in a freight quote?

Accepted Answer

FreightSetu supports 6 charge categories: Freight charges, Origin charges (THC, CFS, seal, VGM), Destination charges (THC, customs clearance, delivery), Documentation charges (BL, AWB, NOC), Duties and taxes, and Insurance. Each charge line has an HSN/SAC code from your charge code master, a buy rate, and a sell rate. You can add unlimited charge lines per quote.
