Which feature provides a workaround for customer portal functionality by setting up a customer as a limited AscendTMS user with branch restrictions so they can log in and see only their own loads, potentially as a paid service?

• A. AscendTMS Learn Menu
• B. Managed Services
• C. AscendTMS Cloud-Based Access
• D. Free Training and Support

Answer: (B)

Focusing on controlled access and data separation, this workaround centers on provisioning a customer as a limited user with branch restrictions so they can log in and only see their own loads, with the service delivered as a paid, managed option. That is precisely what Managed Services provides: a managed setup and ongoing administration of customer access, including configuring restricted user accounts and branch-level visibility to ensure customers only view their own data. It packages the work of creating and maintaining these access controls as a paid service.

The other options don’t fit this scenario. Training resources are about learning materials, not access control. A cloud-based access feature sounds like a generic access channel rather than a configured, restricted customer portal. Free training and support don’t establish restricted user accounts or handle ongoing management as a paid service.
