# Creating and Managing Rate Requests

#### With OYASO, you can request and manage not only daily prices (Spot) but also long-term rate agreements and tariffs with your logistics service providers. This article guides you through the process.

---

#### **1. Select Quote Type**

Start a new request and select the **Rates** tab (instead of Spot) in the first step.

- This option is used to agree on prices per kg, cbm, or load for a fixed **period of time**.
- Next, select the desired mode of transport, e.g., **Road Freight**, and the type of transport (e.g., Door → Door).

---

#### **2. Define Shipment Details**

In the "Enter shipment details" section, you determine the scope of the tariff.

- **Tariff Type:** You can choose specific routes (point-to-point) or define **country tariffs** (inbound/outbound) that cover an entire country or zip code area.
- **Geography:** Define the point of departure (e.g., Country "Germany") and the destination (e.g., a specific zip code like "10117 Berlin").
- **Validity:** Set the timeframe for which the prices should apply by entering the dates under "Prices valid from" and "Prices valid to".
- **Deadline:** Set a deadline for the quote submission.

---

#### **3. Select Partners**

Select the carriers you want to invite to submit rates.

- You can select partners like "Interlog" or "Concordia Log" from your existing list.

**Pro-Tip:** If you do not want to request rates from a carrier but only want to enter your **own price list** internally, click on "Status Overview" (*Statusübersicht*) to manage this manually.

---

#### **4. Send Request**

Before sending, you can personalize the email to the service providers.

- Customize the subject line and the personal cover letter.
- The service provider needs **no registration** to submit their rates.
- Finally, click on **Send** (*Versenden*).

---

#### **5. Entering Offers & Formats**

After sending, you have various options for getting the rates into the system:

- **Excel Upload:** You or the service provider can download a template, fill it out, and upload it via drag & drop.
- **Manual Entry:** Alternatively, rates can also be entered manually ("Manual Input").
- **Retroactive Entry:** In the request overview, you will find the **"Enter Offer"** (*Angebot erfassen*) button to add rates manually if they were received via email, for example.
