As we look forward to the year ahead, many businesses are mapping out improvements they can make to keep shipments moving while mitigating rate increases. Building up safety stock is one strategy some are using to lower shipping costs and reduce stock outages (To avoid price hikes, businesses are finding other ways to protect their margins). On the heels of major rate increases from the big carriers (FedEx and UPS increase rates on average 5.9% from a consistent 4.9%.), more businesses are looking at regional options (Should FedEx and UPS care about the LaserShip+OnTrac Merger?). And with LTL at peak capacity, more shippers are reviewing their LTL contracts to secure capacity at the best price they can get (Transportation Rates Forecast: Q4 2021).

To make strategic shipping improvements we see many shippers needing easier access to all of their shipping data. Fortunately, the Pacejet 22.1 Release has a major feature update coming in January to our Bulk Export tool that helps shippers easily export shipping history for any date range or search criteria with easy data formatting to support analytics or carrier negotiation. Keep reading for a demo of this feature and more information.​

Last week was an amazing experience, to say the least. It was a joy to reconnect with the NetSuite community, see old partners, and meet new friends. Shout out to everyone responsible for SuiteWorld, all the sponsors, and everyone that attended to make this year's conference a successful return to in-person NetSuite events.

Many thanks to those that visited our booth, spoke with us during the event, attended our speaking session, and visited our virtual space. It was a pleasure speaking with you, learning about your shipping processes, and discussing ways that Pacejet can help you complete more shipments to more customers with nothing in your way.

After a successful Microsoft Community Summit NA 2021, we just want to say how happy we are to be back together in person with Microsoft users. As always, we enjoyed connecting with everyone at the event, and we had a wonderful time talking with our customers, partners, friends, and others in Houston.

Big thanks to everyone that said hi at our booth or took the time to speak with us last week.
