Groups and clients

Margins are a defined percentage or fixed value added to the published gross rates. Cargo Office has 2 types of margins:

  • Margin for a individual client Margins that are valid for an individual client; and
  • Margin valid for a group of clients Margins that are valid for a group of clients.

You can view the group margins by selecting a group in the Group management panel. In the bottom window you will find all applied margins for the selected group.

Client margins

By selecting a client in the Client overview panel, you will find all the relevant margins in the bottom window. The overview shows a combination of individual margins and group margins. In the situation that the result contains a group margin and an individual margin with identical properties (e.g. Airline, Airport, Region and Zone), the individual margin will be applied.
