Building a Project

Within each project you can engage with a list of procured carriers through an email blast. First you will need to create a project.

Begin at the Projects tab. You will see two options; 1. Upload Projects and 2. New Project.

  1. If you would like to upload a list of projects all at once select "Upload Projects". A dialogue box will appear with a few options. To properly format your list, select "Download the file template" on the bottom left corner. A CSV file will open with the required fields indicated. Input the required information plus any other optional items and save. Then select "Choose File" to open the recently saved template with all project information. 



  2. If you would like to create a new project directly in C4 select "New Project". From there you will fill in the required information about the project. Once all information is submitted select "Create". Once your project is created you can begin procuring your carriers and send out email blasts when you are sourcing. 

* Origin, Destination, Project Name, Load Count, and Duration are required


HELPFUL TIPS

  1. Although it is not required, include the Total Weight so when your carriers are notified about the load, they can see information about the weight. 
  2. If the shipper allows for multiple equipment types multi select them accordingly 
  3. Due Date = Start Date. If the business is currently running select a current date. If the business doesn't start for a while adjust the Due Date to when the business will begin. 
  4. The number on the right-hand side of each project depicts the quantity of carriers that are procured on that specific project:
  5. You can send out the Check Capacity email to your produced carriers directly from the Projects list view:
