Freight Portal Introduction and Navigation

Welcome To Freight Portal 

This is the main homepage known as "Freight Portal". This will be the screen you navigate to in order to view both active and historical shipments as well as access the additional tabs and features available in your environment.

Navigating Freight Portal

The top left header section contains an additional menu to help users navigate around the portal.

After clicking the additional menu or "hamburger" icon, a window on the left side of your screen will pop out allowing you to navigate to additional features and options.
