Determining the second leg carrier for parcel shipments

The Sterling™ Order Management System provides the capability to route shipments (that are a part of the break bulk load) from the break bulk node to the final destination. To achieve this, the user needs to configure a routing guideline from the break bulk node to the final destination.

If the second leg routing fails for parcel shipments, then for:

  • Domestic Shipments—The original SCAC and carrier service code is stamped on the shipment.
  • International Shipment—The "Could not determine SCAC for second leg" routing error code is stamped on the shipment. Despite this, the shipment goes to the "Shipment Routed" status. You must manually resolve the error.
