How to Upload Tariff Files to Monada

Uploading your freight tariffs to Monada is quick and easy—just a few clicks and your rates are ready to use across your quoting workflows. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started.

Supported File Types

Monada currently supports uploading the following types of tariff files:

1. FCL (Full Container Load)

Used when a consignee fills an entire container with cargo. Ideal for large-volume shipments that utilize the container’s full capacity.

2. LCL (Less than Container Load)

Multiple consignees share space in a single container. Perfect for smaller shipments that don’t require a full container.

3. FTL Location (Full Truck Load – Location)

Fixed truckload rate between two specific locations. For example, a flat rate for shipments from point A to point B.

4. FTL Range (Full Truck Load – Range)

Truckload rate based on distance traveled. Rates are calculated per kilometer or based on defined distance brackets.

5. Charge FCL

Additional charges applied to FCL shipments, such as port fees, documentation charges, or other freight-related surcharges.

6. Charge LCL

Extra charges for LCL shipments, often calculated by weight (KG), volume (CBM), or shipment handling, including consolidation/deconsolidation.

How to Upload Tariff Files

Follow these steps to upload your rates:

1. Go to Supplier Rates in the Monada platform.
2. Click Import.
3. Select the file type you’re uploading (e.g., FCL, LCL, FTL Location, etc.).
4. Upload the tariff file, and enter the relevant:
   • Carrier name
     
     • If the carrier name does not appear in the list, select “All Carriers.”
   • Contract type
   • Validity dates

Make sure your file includes all required details—charges, origins, destinations, and all relevant surcharges—clearly listed and labeled, with a clear indication of what each surcharge applies to. Once submitted, your file will begin processing automatically.

Check File Status

You can track your upload anytime under Supplier Rates > Import History.

Once it’s processed, you’ll get a Monada notification and a confirmation email letting you know everything’s ready.

If we run into missing info or need clarification, the file status will switch to “Clarification Needed”, and you’ll get an email with the details. We’ll resume processing as soon as you reply.

How to Delete a File I Uploaded by Mistake?

To delete a file from your file package quote, click the trash can icon next to the file name. Note that this is only possible while the status is 'Pending' (before processing starts).
