Advanced Navigator - Other Views - Transportation View

You can launch Quick Plan or Planalyzer to freight plan in Transportation View. You can change mailing dates and entry points. If you have the PMOD module, you can create PMOD shipments for all classes except First Class. You can also access Truck Direct Mail (TDM) to ship pallets LTL.
