LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WITH PRICING BASED ON LINKED TRANSPORTATION AND OTHER CHARGE CONTRACTS

Abstract:

Systems and methods for performing air waybill pricing may include selecting a first transportation contract to price the transportation of a carriage of goods for the air waybill, wherein the first transportation contract is linked to other charge contracts. Embodiments may also include determining an identifier associated with the first transportation contract that links the first transportation contract to the plurality of other charge contracts. The one or more other charge contracts associated with the same identifier associated with the first transportation contract may be identified, and a price for the carriage of goods may be calculated based at least in part on transportation charges specified in the first transportation contract and other charges specified in the identified one or more other charge contracts. Some embodiments may further include outputting an air waybill that is generated to include at least the calculated price for the carriage of goods.
