Introduction

This article describes the sorting and filtering functionality of the shipment list in Logivity Connect service. This functionality makes it easier for you to find the shipments that are relevant for your search criteria.

Please note that filters and filter templates applied in Connect will not transfer to Loadboard view due to the differences in the column filtering options. 

If your organization is registered with both Shipper and Carrier roles, filters that you apply and save as templates are only applicable to the respective views they are created in.

Prerequisites

Sorting and filtering functionality is available to organizations registered as "shipper", "carrier", or both roles.
