Stamp rate charts are base rate charts that work with route stops only. They are primarily used when your customer has an integration and stops posted by an import file, a dispatcher creates a stop on the fly, or when you need to apply item charges to contract stop. 

There can only be 1 stamp rate chart per base rate chart group.

Fall back to base tier

If enabled, and there is no match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2, it will check for Lookup 1 where the Tier is less than the Base Tier. 

 Click here to see example...

A route stop using the Advanced Fallback Rating Stamp Rate Chart above with a route stop where Lookup 1 is "85004" and Lookup 2 is "85018". Since the Fall back to base tier is checked and it could not match both Lookup 1 and Lookup 2, the route stop will rate at $20.

If enabled, and there is a match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 it will rate as listed in the Advanced Fallback Rate.

If disabled, and there is a match for Lookup 1 and  Lookup 2 it will rate as listed in the Advanced Fallback Rate.

If disabled, and there is no match for Lookup 1 and Lookup 2, it will rate 0.

Rate By Route

If enabled, only stops on the first stop's route and post date will be rated.

If disabled, stops on any route with the same post date are rated.

Example

You want to rate only the first route stop with Lookup 1 and Lookup 2 set to "85004" at $15 and the following route stops with the same lookups at $0.

If Rate By Route is checked, then it will rate the first stop on each route. The first stop on route 1234 and the first stop on route 5678 would be rated at $15 each.

If Rate By Route is unchecked, then it will rate the first imported route stop regardless of the route ID. So only the first stop imported on route 1234 would be rated $15 and the first stop on route 5678 would rate at $0.
