Which event typically triggers the generation of a Rate Confirmation?

Explanation:
Rate confirmations are generated when shipment terms become binding and finalized. This occurs when a quote is accepted or the load is booked, because that moment locks in the agreed rate and details of the shipment. The system then creates the Rate Confirmation to document the exact rate, charges, equipment, lane, and dates for both the shipper and carrier. Other actions like creating the initial load draft, uploading the POD, or changing currency don’t finalize terms, so they don’t trigger a Rate Confirmation.
