What is Considered a Shipment?

For billing purposes, OnTime defines a shipment as "a record containing information about the transportation of an object from one place to another." A shipment typically consists of a collection location, delivery location, and information about how the object will be transported. Within OnTime, this is often referred to as an Order.

A shipment is always represented in the Tracking view of the OnTime desktop applications as a single row.

The users of an OnTime account are in control of the number of shipments/orders submitted.

If you have additional questions about shipment pricing, contact OnTime Sales.

When we were doing 300 stops a day and I was using QuickBooks for billing I would spend about 50 to 60 hours a month on billing. Now we’re doing over 450 stops a day but thanks to OnTime (which integrates with Quickbooks) last month I did all the billing in about 20 hours. I cannot express how happy that makes me.
