What does AscendTMS auto-build when you perform a load board search?

• A. a search based on driver's expected empty location, date, and equipment type
• B. a search based on vehicle color
• C. a search based on fuel type
• D. a search based on driver's name

Answer: (A)

AscendTMS tailors the load board search around what the carrier can actually handle next. It auto-builds the criteria using three practical factors: the expected empty location, the date the truck will be available, and the equipment type on the truck. This combination ensures you’re looking at loads that fit the truck’s real-world constraints, helping to reduce deadhead and improve matching efficiency. Attributes like vehicle color, fuel type, or the driver’s name don’t influence whether a load is suitable, so they aren’t used to set up the auto-built search.
